coming sometime soon -- a comparison of the usual Silverstone, powered by the Cal 12 movement, and the Reference 510.403, powered by the Lemania 5100.

The more I wear the 5100-powered chronos, with the center-mounted minute hand for the chronograph, the more I prefer the lay-out of the 5100s compared with the usual three-register design (with the chrono minute hand at three o'clock). In the trade-off between symmetry and legibility, lately, I find myself preferring the legibility.
