I bought this watch for a visual on the Hector Guimard metro signs diverted into an Oxygen station. It was a misunderstanding. In reality, this watch does not make me think at all of Guimard's universe, nor even of the Parisian metro. When I see it, I do not hear the RATP sound signal but the "zurückbleiben bitte!" of the U-Bahn. It makes me think more of Berlin and reminds me of the design of a Wostok that I wear sometimes (and which must itself be inspired by German models like those of Junghans for example). That said, it is a very correct little watch. The Miyota caliber is very reliable, there is nothing to complain about. The sound of its beats is rather pleasant, even if the automatic balance makes a spinning top noise. The back is transparent, even if the weight is not particularly decorated. We can see this functional movement beating and the oscillating weight spinning. The hands have a luminova treatment in the center and four chips indicate the four dial markers in the dark. The leather strap is simple but sturdy and very successful. For the soundtrack I hesitate a lot between piano improvisations or electronic music, in any case crossed influences between France and Germany. Maybe we will then choose Kompromat (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KeCHQdUapk0 ) to show that the French can also make German music or Kraftwerk to show that the Germans can also make the soundtrack of the Tour de France (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=invtIKKl2Hw ). Adjective: Germanic, Parisian, Simple, Industrial, refined, reliable, European
