The decorated caseback shows the famous "Auld Mug" trophy atop a blue screen with a wave motif and the text "36th America's Cup, Auckland 2021." This ornamentation obscures the ability to really view the movement. In link a way, the link inability to see the movement link is fitting.

If we as an industry can't reward independent brands for taking a chance on an impressive, proprietary new movement, then what are we even doing?
I asked him what it was like to get the call from the AD. link "I was thrilled to see his number on my phone, link my heart skipped a beat." This was link his second call from this particular AD. "I could tell from the way the guy said my name, "Hey there GC," that something important had arrived."
