Δεν θα τοποθετηθώ ακόμη για το ρολόι και τις 26 complications του.
Θα πω ότι έχει ενδιαφέρον και βάση η παρατήρηση του Eisenberg και θα πω και ένα "ανέκδοτο" που συνέβη.
Δημοσιογράφος (και μάλιστα από τους καλύτερους στον κόσμο και σε πολύ σημαντικό έντυπο), μπήκε στο Internet, κατέβασε τον ορισμό της (ελληνιής) λέξης Hybris από την Wikipedia και έγραψε το άρθρο του! Σεισμός!
Διαβάστε τι γράφει η γνωστή εγκυκλοπαίδεια και μετέφερε ο άνθρωπος:
"Hubris (/hjuːbrɪs/) (ancient Greek ὕβρις) is a term used in modern English to indicate overweening pride, haughtiness, or arrogance, often resulting in fatal retribution or Nemesis. In ancient Greece, hubris referred to actions which, intentionally or not, shamed and humiliated the victim, and frequently the perpetrator as well. It was most evident in the public and private actions of the powerful and rich. The word was also used to describe actions of those who challenged the gods or their laws, especially in Greek tragedy, resulting in the protagonist's downfall.
Hubris, though not specifically defined, was a legal term and was considered a crime in classical Athens. It was also considered the greatest sin of the ancient Greek world. That was so because it was not only proof of excessive pride, but also resulted in violent acts by or to those involved. The category of acts constituting hubris for the ancient Greeks apparently broadened from the original specific reference to mutilation of a corpse, or a humiliation of a defeated foe, or irreverent "outrageous treatment" in general.
The meaning was eventually further generalized in its modern English usage to apply to any outrageous act or exhibition of pride or disregard for basic moral laws. Such an act may be referred to as an "act of hubris", or the person committing the act may be said to be hubristic. Ate|Atë, ancient Greek for "ruin, folly, delusion," is the action performed by the hero, usually because of his/her hubris, or great pride, that leads to his/her death or downfall."

ΥΓ. Το ρολόι προφανώς είναι πολύ ωραίο. Απλά χρειάζεται μια πιο "βαθιά" ματιά για να προσεγγίσουμε το τι ακριβώς είναι και τι αντιπροσωπεύει στον χώρο της ΥΩ και των μοντέλων Grande Complication, αλλά και τι είναι αυτή η κασετίνα; (Αλήθεια θυμάστε τις πάστες που τις έλεγαν "κασετίνες";)
