Nanuq Posted June 16, 2016 Report Posted June 16, 2016 Yes you read that right... this bad boy is carved from transparent sapphire. Read about it here: http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2016-06-16/this-1-275-million-new-watch-is-made-from-transparent-sapphire
Nanuq Posted June 16, 2016 Author Report Posted June 16, 2016 And the factories will have it repped in 3... 2... 1...
508-Fanatic Posted June 17, 2016 Report Posted June 17, 2016 LOL that will make the worst rep ever probably, and I actually quite fancy it.
Nanuq Posted June 18, 2016 Author Report Posted June 18, 2016 You're right! I re-read the article; the predecessor was a Big Bang, and this one takes the transparent case a step further with a "Double Tourbillon" movement. Good catch.
alt.watch.obsessive Posted June 18, 2016 Report Posted June 18, 2016 Greubel Forsey. A gyrotourbillon JLC is what, 50K? And figure that already has an astronomical margin built in.
Sogeha Posted June 18, 2016 Report Posted June 18, 2016 If the factories rep it, I want a PVD version with "Stailess Steal" engraved on it, a display back and Quartz movement. Some things just need sending up.
