A day late, but you will like this one: VAULT VISIT

Today I found the first (and only one) of the Laureato Tourbillon Blue to come to North America. We have made a similar watch before with clear sapphire bridges, this one has blue spinelle bridges.
I love how the micro-rotor is hidden under the top bridge, above the mainspring barrel, and that the cap is skeletonized so you can see the rotor spinning.
Oh, and number 8 is a great number too!
