As a design piece, I find this to be very cool. The hour link hand design, the basketball tourbillon cage, and the bezel all clearly signal link the b-ball theme. But this watch takes things a bit farther than that. According to Kross, each of the piece's link 281 parts have been hand-made, and the 3 Hz caliber KS 7'000 is made and developed fully in-house. These are inherently interesting qualities on their own and now they come with a literal team of Looney Tune illustrations on the watch itself.

To a watchmaker one of the biggest differences is that a full-bridge movement is easier to work on. Taking a movement apart is one thing but putting it back together again is another. I haven't link worked on my own watches in a while but link I've tried to put link ¾ plate pocket watch movements back together more than once. I got a little better at it over the years but it's kind of a nightmare.
