Owners talk.

“

The Otsuka Lotec 9号 is recognized for its unique, industrial design inspired by Japanese power meters and vintage car dashboards, featuring a jump hour, rewinding minutes, tourbillon, and sonnerie au passage complication, which earned it a GPHG award. Some owners find its retrograde movement cool and consider it visually interesting, with one stating it is superior to a Reverso. However, the chime sound is noted as not crisp, and the 26mm lug width is considered extreme by one reviewer. There is also a comment about non-flush screws on the front being bothersome. On balance, owners and reviewers appreciate the Otsuka Lotec 9号 for its ambitious complications and distinctive industrial aesthetic.
