Thread: The Best Finished Movements Ever

  1. #1

    The Best Finished Movements Ever

    HI all, found out about This Place from the Other Place thanks to mlcor's photos of his Och und Junior moonphase. By way of barging into This Place, I'd like to throw out a request for photos of the best finished movements ever!

    It would be really nice to have photos representing all the major watch producing countries - Swiss, German, Japanese, Chinese, etc. I have a sweet tooth and I need some eye-candy.

    There have already been two threads highlighting Dufour's work so I'll post it to kickstart the thread!

    Welcome aboard!

    I don't know if any Chinese watches would be permitted in the high end forum... Want me to move this to central where anything goes? Its busier there too. Up to you though.

    Cheers

    Given what complications Beijing are producing I would hope they were permitted (strange choice of words btw)

    Doubt anyone on IWL has hands-on experience of them though.

    And we already had this

    I did read that thread and that modification of the SB18 movement is fascinating. Not quite what I had in mind by movement finishing but it certainly qualifies!

    Here's a picture of a Chinese tourbillon from BJWAF that I found - the angelage looks pretty decent and it seems better finished than entry level JLC.
