My problem with JLC-Richemont is how they're trying so hard to keep up with their reputation of movement makers.
They'll often release the weirdest and most useless watches with (often) the stupidest design choice.

Take pic related for example.
>chronograph with a calendar and a moonphase
Such a weird design... What purpose does it serve? Measuring the speed of tides?
>luminova on the hour and minute hand, no luminova on the chronograph hand, subdials and indices
Another weird choice. You're allowed to read the hour at night, but you can't use the chronograph complication. The smart choice would be to get rid of the luminova on the hour and minute hands, VC does it for its heritage chrono and it's fine
>that 12 index
Now this one is pure autism. They kept it because that watch belongs to the Master Control collection which has applied numeral indices. So you have that "12" by itself on the dial and it looks stupid.
