PatronSaintofChainsaws 1 Posted July 16, 2010 Maybe I've missed seeing them but I don't see any chronograph watches with alarms? Someday perhaps they will rep minute repeaters but until then there is no need to rep a casio Minute repeater != alarm. Minute repeaters chime the time, while an alarm movement....rings the alarm. Plus, most (all?) minute repeaters are manually triggered. There's a lack of readily available chrono-alarm movements, which would be the big stumbling block. The only affordable mechanical alarm that's readily available I can think of is the Russian manual-wind Poljot movement (which appears to be a clone of an 1950s-era Angelus alarm movement). http://poljot-times.com/russian-watches/de...php?cPath=21_25 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Baldrick 1 Posted July 16, 2010 There are alarm reps, but not combined with a chrono function, I don't think! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PatronSaintofChainsaws 1 Posted July 16, 2010 WTF...where can we get these? Edit: that TTK surely knew how to take pics I'd hazard a guess that these haven't been produced for some time. I've hunted around looking for alarm movement reps, but haven't found them. Maybe I'm not looking in the right places. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Baldrick 1 Posted July 16, 2010 Not only was TTK a good photographer, he had a bloody knack of finding stuff that you can't get from anyone else, I remember he had the ONLY, yes, ONLY, Van der Bauwede rep that I've ever seen, so rare that IIRC Eddilee actually bought one from him, I wish I could find that photo, it was rectangular and rotating 'square' bezel turned within the dimensions of the case, extraordinary. I'm digging out the ouija board tonite, see if I can find the source for some of these, especially that Master Compressor! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
