I agreed with you that the Sincere's version without the tinted sapphire displaying the cut-out at the 3 o'clock area is not smart, and indeed displace the 'star of the SL" - the lightweight aluminium tourbillon cage on the sapphire bridges"!
I wonder :
1) what're the reasons Chopard agreed to the design and
2) how does Sincere proceed to change the cosmetic design to their models. The Tech Twist was quite well-done and better contrast too as compared to the regular production. Do they have an in-house industrial designer??
Indeed 'Limited Edition' (LE) series should be for celebrating/commemorating of special/significant occasions.
Without any significance, LE has lost its meaning and may not be coveted...which may not be helpful for the companies' branding in long run.

Choices I prefer the Chopard version even though it has a larger (sic) series of 100 pieces. The Sincere LE ruthenium coating degrades the appreciation of the fine finishing that LUC does. The Chopard version dial is also more elegant and without the redu...
