omni Posted October 20, 2006 Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 I've been looking at this Chinese Centre Tourbillon on ebay and was wondering what some of the members thought of this look? This SS Sport Tourbi is different and the white on white markers and hands could probably be more functional with a superluminova job.

addingwatch Posted October 20, 2006 Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 Sorry, but it looks like a mismatch to me. The dial and case are too plain for the movement. Regards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omni Posted October 21, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2006 Thanks addingwatch for taking the time to respond. I just had to hear that from someone else to confirm my own inate feelings. Still haven't found one of these centre tourbis in a case/dial that I like yet. Patience, patience! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Everythingape Posted October 21, 2006 Report Share Posted October 21, 2006 I like tourbillons in a light cold case, on a nice cream dial, with plain hands and a small discrete date indicator.. Nothing too fancy.. And it's supposed to show half way out of the sleeve of a dark suit, holding a glass of Gin Tonic.. But I don't want to be too specific here..

Guest TTK Posted October 21, 2006 Report Share Posted October 21, 2006 That's a waste of a tourbillon which could have gone into a nicer housing....! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KB Posted October 21, 2006 Report Share Posted October 21, 2006 I'm much on the same track as the others, a Tourby needs to go with a classy dial/watch and that one without even a name is just too plain. Ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slay Posted October 22, 2006 Report Share Posted October 22, 2006 this movement should go into a breguet rep! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thomasng Posted October 22, 2006 Report Share Posted October 22, 2006 That's a horrid design. Dial looks like [censored], looks very imbalanced. The only sports tourbillon IMO are the RM tourbillons, the RD Easy Diver Tourbillons, Blancpain Leman, and the Girard Perregaux Seahawk tourbillons.

insane Posted October 23, 2006 Report Share Posted October 23, 2006 I like tourbillons in a light cold case, on a nice cream dial, with plain hands and a small discrete date indicator..

Sounds just like me and my Breguet turbi right now.. We're surfing the web, sipping on a GT, enjoying each others company Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
