    I received a call from the Boutique to tell me the Heritage Pilots had arrived.

    I brought my Tribute to MarkXI and Pilot Chronograph along for comparison. I really like it, actually, I like it a lot! the blued hands are great and the titanium case adds tons of character.

    Apologies for the compositions, the Boutique lighting is not great for pictures.

    And as a bonus, some Ingenieurs as well

    Congrats on the Tribute!
    Paired with the Heritage, the two make a remarkable team!!
    Absolutely gorgeous.
    Did you happen to see the Bronze BP arrive in boutiques?
    Still desperately keen to see what it looks like on hand.

    Beautiful Heritage watch: a perfect dial, perfect case material. One question about the crown: it sticks out, was it loose? Or is it supposed to look that way?

    Kind regards,
    Paul

    Hi Paul
    The Boutique had the crown unscrewed. So I was not about to screw it down.

    I am told that all display watches are wound daily and to minimize wear and tear, they leave the crowns open

    Neither of the Heritage BPs, steel nor bronze had arrived.

    Hi, Mark

    I recently picked up my Mark XVIII Tribute. I didn't take to the time to see the Heritage Titanium, but will next time I'm in the Boutique. Thanks for the post.
