crystalcranium Posted April 16, 2010 Report Posted April 16, 2010 Three incredible pieces from Jose Nana arrived this week. Actually 4 came but one is a SS Sub, remarkable in its own right at $108 but we
maxman Posted April 16, 2010 Report Posted April 16, 2010 Those are absolutly fantastic. Thanks for sharing those beauties
Katerchen Posted April 16, 2010 Report Posted April 16, 2010 Goreous Tourbillon - allways had great respect of the craftsmanship - the understated design of the dial with guilloche pattern almost like a ZEN-garden takes this movement to "another level" - Gorgeous rep!! Wouldnt care either if the breguet aint 100% accurate - because its for sure 100% of a beauty!! Wear them well friend George
Toadtorrent Posted April 17, 2010 Report Posted April 17, 2010 Those are some awesome choices...wow...beautiful QUARTET (with the Noob included of course).
mastrmindalliance Posted April 17, 2010 Report Posted April 17, 2010 Wow! Some lovely watches, have never gone for these classy dress watches but you have changed my mind... Though a question about the tourbillon. Does it have real functionality? Thought i read somewhere, on reps they were just exposed balance wheels? Congrats though, they are all beautiful! I'm heading over to Josh's now to check em out!
Jkay Posted April 17, 2010 Report Posted April 17, 2010 Does it have real functionality? Thought i read somewhere, on reps they were just exposed balance wheels? That depends on the rep. The exposed balance wheel style is called "open heart" .. but the Chinese do in fact have working tourby movements and the Trusted dealers here do have them on their storefronts. Price is the clue here. Look for $500+ for a genuine example. Fake (open heart) Real Real weights on the balance wheel are a good sign.
dovo1695 Posted April 17, 2010 Report Posted April 17, 2010 Thanks for posting the pics! That Patek is really something. How is the white gold plating?x Dovo
crystalcranium Posted April 17, 2010 Author Report Posted April 17, 2010 The white gold with polished stainless under looks beautiful. I received a remarkable Patek box set today to go with the Patek that is unmatched in detail to any other rep box set I have purchased. I will post pics soon.
crystalcranium Posted April 17, 2010 Author Report Posted April 17, 2010 Here are the box shots. Remarkable quality. About $150 USD for the Box.
vafarmer70 Posted April 17, 2010 Report Posted April 17, 2010 love the Tourbillon love the Tourbillon That had to be repeated.
carl1000 Posted April 18, 2010 Report Posted April 18, 2010 How long did it take from when you ordered those to get them here in the US??...I just ordered one )
crystalcranium Posted April 19, 2010 Author Report Posted April 19, 2010 To the east coast of US usually 7-10 days from Josh
chronoluvvv Posted April 19, 2010 Report Posted April 19, 2010 damn nice i saw one of those Tourby movements just last night ... fantastic work by the rep makers
sul Posted April 19, 2010 Report Posted April 19, 2010 Love that Patek... Is it close to gen or is it more like a "fantasy watch"? I need one pure dress watch also soon. Thought that TAG Cal 1 will be my new watch but this Patek is very nice also.
crystalcranium Posted April 19, 2010 Author Report Posted April 19, 2010 The Patek is a fantasy watch...maybe. They have made so many different and nuanced versions of two dial chronos over the decades that who knows? The watch hs not gained or lost a second in 5 days of running. What's up with that? Amazing!
