# Voutilainen 28ti Review by A.I. WatchMetrics


## Watch Summary
The Voutilainen 28Ti is a pinnacle haute horlogerie dress watch blending a lightweight natural Grade 5 titanium case with Kari Voutilainen's signature hand-guilloch� dial executed in silver-opalin finish, targeting ultra-discerning collectors who prioritize artisanal mastery, exclusivity, and understated elegance; it features the in-house Calibre V-28 manual-winding movement with small seconds at 4 o'clock and a 65-hour power reserve indicator sweeping from 7 to 10.

## Overall Watch Rating: 8.6/10.0

**Rarity Metric (9.9/10.0)** - With production numbers well under 10 units annually across similar configurations, the 28Ti's scarcity surpasses even Patek Philippe limited editions.
**Dials & Design Metric (9.9/10.0)** - The hand-guilloch� dial and proprietary blued steel hands crafted by the master himself set a benchmark rivaling the finest enamels from Roger W. Smith.
**Brand Metric (9.8/10.0)** - Voutilainen epitomizes haute horlogerie independents like F.P. Journe through obsessive hand-finishing and global cult status among connoisseurs.
**Material Metric (9.5/10.0)** - Grade 5 titanium with natural brushing, double-AR sapphire, and exhibition caseback elevates it above white gold cases in many luxury peers.
**Movement Metric (9.4/10.0)** - The Calibre V-28 delivers top-tier decoration, reliability, and in-house uniqueness akin to A. Lange & S�hne's handwerkskunst calibers.
**History & Innovation Metric (8.7/10.0)** - Kari Voutilainen's two-decade legacy in restoration and guilloch� innovation places it firmly among established independents like Philippe Dufour.
**Versatility Metric (7.8/10.0)** - Suitable for formal and casual elegance thanks to its slim titanium profile, though limited water resistance curbs sportier use compared to Omega dress models.
**Complications Metric (6.4/10.0)** - The power reserve indicator and small seconds subdial provide refined utility matching mid-tier Jaquet Droz pieces.
**Functions Metric (6.2/10.0)** - Core timekeeping with power reserve offers solid daily utility on par with Grand Seiko dress watches.

## Total Performance Score (TPS): 4.4
## TPS Interpretation: Good Value: The watch delivers exceptional rarity and craftsmanship that outperform price-expected norms in key luxury attributes.
## WM Collector Grade: B-
## Performance Insights: Excels in rarity, dials/design, and brand prestige with robust movement and materials, but basic functions and complications temper the score; strong value versus an implied price of $55,000.
