downfromtheglen 0 Posted June 15, 2011 So I've been in touch with Mary about the availability of watches with a functioning tourbillon. She can source the following 4 models, all $500 plus. Ska wrote up one of the JLC's, and I'm leaning toward that one, based on his review and, well, because I like the look of it. Read his review here: http://www.replica-watches-guide.com/forum...urbillon+review Any thoughts on any of these watches? By the way, the pictures from Mary are copyrighted. I think that's fucking hilarious. NUMBER 1 NUMBER 2 NUMBER 3 NUMBER 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Member X 91 Posted June 15, 2011 Number 1 for me. Classy, simple, uncluttered, and excellent build quality according to the reviews. The others... Gold will wear off, dial on number 2 is a bit cluttered for my taste, and number 4 is not the prettiest skeleton ever seen! lol All IMHO, of course Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SeanusMaximus 0 Posted June 15, 2011 Definitely number one, it's gorgeous! What's the price on that one mate? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Legger 0 Posted June 15, 2011 It's got to be number 1. It oozes class. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kaiser 4 Posted June 15, 2011 Definately number 2, the hands appear to be less off-centre than number 1, if not completely centered. Also the tourbillon looks nicer IMO Good luck with the choice! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SB56667 155 Posted June 15, 2011 Absolutely. Number 1. Cleanest, most balanced, a winner all around. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crewldude 0 Posted June 15, 2011 Gotta go with number 1 as well. Does Mary still have this Breguet available? http://www.replica-watches-guide.com/forum...showtopic=10079 Or this Roger Dubuis? http://www.replica-watches-guide.com/forum...showtopic=10076 Nice watches, but may not be your taste.

Nice RD, but a little too much going on there. I don't think these are still available. She said these 4 are all that are available at the moment. I'm thinking it'll end up being the first JLC posted above. I'm hoping the price will be closer to $500 than to $600. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mackie- 4 Posted June 15, 2011 Number 1 for me too. Really sexy JL. Another awesome Tourbillon is the Hublot Big Bang King Power model. I think that is a piece of art but I haven't seen a rep around here. I'm gonna check with Mary if she has something to offer... Anyway, number 1 :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ska 11 Posted June 15, 2011 Def no. 1 obviously. :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aren 27 Posted June 23, 2011 I recommend looking at Ska's great review and wonderful photos of the JLC tourby. It's a beautiful and amazing watch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gran 226 Posted June 23, 2011 AP larger diametre on this AP than the JLC me thinks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AlphaLima 17 Posted June 23, 2011 (edited) Do they do No.1 without the tourbillon? That's quite an understated yet classy watch. That's up there with the RailMaster in my eyes. EDIT: How much was the Radiomir? Edited June 23, 2011 by AlphaLima Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EDIT: How much was the Radiomir? Not sure if there's a non-tourby model of this one. But if it's out there, Mary can find it. The Radiomir is a budget model--$88 plus shipping and such.
