Nanuq Posted June 16, 2016 Report Share Posted June 16, 2016 Yes you read that right... this bad boy is carved from transparent sapphire.

Nanuq Posted June 16, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2016 And the factories will have it repped in 3... 2... 1... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
508-Fanatic Posted June 17, 2016 Report Share Posted June 17, 2016 LOL that will make the worst rep ever probably, and I actually quite fancy it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theflyingdutchman Posted June 18, 2016 Report Share Posted June 18, 2016 It's not a Big Bang! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanuq Posted June 18, 2016 Author Report Share 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 Share Posted June 18, 2016 Greubel Forsey. A gyrotourbillon JLC is what, 50K? And figure that already has an astronomical margin built in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sogeha Posted June 18, 2016 Report Share 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some things just need sending up. They're already almost there... this one has the "transparent PVD" coating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
