umairarif Posted November 27, 2013 Report Share Posted November 27, 2013 hi, why are these tourbillon watches so expensive? are they worth having? I know its individuals choice but just curious how would they look on any wrist. for instance http://www.tswatch2004.com/7153-br8920-breguet-jubilee-tourbillon-skeleton-flying-tourbillon-pvd.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samurai Posted November 27, 2013 Report Share Posted November 27, 2013 The movement is not the easiest to work with. I have a couple and love them. FM Aeternitas being my favourite. Sent from Samsung Note 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteM Posted November 27, 2013 Report Share Posted November 27, 2013 Its a personal choice but my advice is unless you want to keep them dont go to dealer wait for a cheaper priced one on the m2m sales...these dont resell well .... and you will lose money.. Also be careful not to choose one that actually is just an exposed movement... The high price reflects the chinese psuedo tourbillon movement only not the quality of the watch necessarily...so do research if you are considering..check out sales threads and general discussions A pucker tourbillon on a gen starts around $30K on the cheapest gen brands...though seagull do some nice ones starting for around $2000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rek001 Posted November 27, 2013 Report Share Posted November 27, 2013 Go to youtube and search for "asian tourbillon" so you can see some in action. I'm still debating getting one, not really sure of its longevity, complicated movement, expensive proposition. If something happens to it, not sure who would be able to fix it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
