We often cringe when we find a common mass-produced movement in a watch by a noted watchmaker; however, some watches by master watchmakers include a brilliant module. The rest of the watch is adequately handled by a common movement—while the real star is the module on top of the movement. The best part is that if we know what we’re looking for we can find works by master horologists at affordable prices.
