Pequignet Concorde Titane 36mm Owner Review : Balanced, endearing and exceptional

I have rarely felt so much pleasure wearing a watch. The design of the titanium Concorde is very successful, its lightness, and its extremely well-made bracelet, seamlessly integrated into the case. This model, compared to the steel versions, does not have a date window, which, in my opinion, is a plus in terms of the dial's balance and the symmetry of its hour markers. Its 36mm diameter is perfect for my 16cm wrist. Its dial is sublime; depending on the time and the lighting, it reveals 50 shades of gray! Unfortunately, after a few days, the balance wheel seemed to malfunction, and the watch stopped running on my wrist. So I sent it back to Pequignet. After contacting them, it was confirmed that there was indeed a slight friction between the balance wheel and a part of the case, preventing it from winding automatically. I will receive it repaired next week, and I can't wait to wear it again. One minor drawback that will be corrected in a future update of the in-house caliber: When winding the crown, a slight metallic friction is noticeable, which may be surprising compared to winding other calibers on the market.
