This is a striking piece, (no pun intended), but I don't count 16 complications...

Response to Vacheron Constantin presents Tour de l'Ile: The world's most complicated wristwatch

From the list, I count the following as actual separate complications:

1. minute repeater
2. tourbillon
3. power reserve
4. second time zone
5. phase and age of the moon, (one dial, one indicator).
6. torque indicator for repeater mechanism
7. perpetual calendar
8. equation of time
9. time of sunrise & sunset
10. sky chart

Not that this takes anything away from this lovely watch, but I think Paul Gerber still holds the record for making the most complicated wristwatch, for our own Lord Arran.
