Corgi Posted December 27, 2008 Report Posted December 27, 2008 Some are really nice... but I guess their appeal will ultimately depend on how much they cost; and given that they do not publicize the prices, it is likely to be quite a lot...

KB Posted December 27, 2008 Report Posted December 27, 2008 Some are indeed very nice watches....worth a whisper in the rep makers ear? Ken
robertk Posted December 28, 2008 Report Posted December 28, 2008 These are extraordinary watch designs. Just beautiful.
fotoman Posted December 28, 2008 Report Posted December 28, 2008 I have seen these come up on the boards in the past - they are super special and worth a good spotlight every now and then. and - those movements Klaauw Benzinger - thats who T has his high end movements decorated by isnt' it.
slickdick Posted December 28, 2008 Report Posted December 28, 2008 (edited) Don't know if tourby's movements are decorated by Klaauw however the back of the watches showing the movement is possibly more impressive then the attention to detail on the front...

Bazz Posted December 28, 2008 Report Posted December 28, 2008 The Benzinger refers to Jochen Benzinger a German master engraver who has done work for many well known brands including some movements T had in stock. It goes without saying of course some of the Christiaan van der Klaauw pieces are quite tasty.
RLudlowe Posted December 28, 2008 Report Posted December 28, 2008 Beautiful watches - thanks for sharing!
bigmouth Posted December 28, 2008 Report Posted December 28, 2008 Some are indeed very nice watches....worth a whisper in the rep makers ear? Ken Will be hard to make a 1 to 1 copy of these watches because this brand is really rare and the watches are really hard to get. Only a few shops in the Netherlands are selling this brand and there is a waitinglist. It is really a small brand, maybe 3 or 4 employees I think.
flex Posted December 30, 2008 Report Posted December 30, 2008 Beauttiful.. note to mysef - i want a 18k white dial watch for 2009!
