I remember watching Bert Blyleven when he was with the Angels. The most smooth and fluid pitching motion I ever saw - pure grace.

Cliff Lee and, in an earlier time, Floyd Bannister were joys to watch...like a ballet!
Shortly after he was drafted, Bannister pitched just a couple of games here with the Columbus Astros and he was fun to watch.
The danger with a smooth, very repeatable windup is, without great off speed pitches, it is far easier to time.
