tourby... another german watchmaker has produce what we are looking for

both
guilloche

and enamel dial

with see through case back showing the swiss handwind 6498 movement at different level of finishing....

like this basic decorated price from euro650

White enamel dial would be stunning!
And something different.

daun · « **Reply #28 on:** October 13, 2009, 07:04:02 AM »

tourby would be a bot expensive then steinhart. how about wilson watch work, good made and not that expensive. but the only thing is that he does not have the type of design WMF required ( I guess).

HusH · « **Reply #29 on:** October 13, 2009, 05:28:06 PM »

The enamel dial looks great! I like the thick case too. A bulk discount possible?

We could get a quotations from various watchmakers and have a vote.

chrisyen · « **Reply #30 on:** October 13, 2009, 08:36:54 PM »

i think buck discount is available....
but we do not have the buck number yet...

steinhart likely cheaper... but not sure they can get enamel dial!

WOW!

This is good looking dress watch!!

yes please.

chrisyen · « **Reply #34 on:** December 07, 2009, 06:34:46 AM »

UPDATE !

contacted mr tourby....

the price can be lowered to EURO 480 if we take out the screw balance, swan neck, maple box and genuine croc strap.... (not inclusive of engraving)

to hv all that price is double....

if order exceed 30 numbers engraving is free!

takashi78 · « **Reply #35 on:** December 07, 2009, 08:12:00 AM »

Box and strap i think is no biggie.
What effects will it have if we take out the screw balance and swan neck?

Does this price include some sort of wording on the dial like "MWF LE xx/30"?

"MWF LE xx/30"

but we do not hv the numbers to get this engravement free....

can we count ?

quote from mr tourby about the swan neck movement !

Hi

the swan neck movement is a good choice

The price for 850,00 Euro for the whole watch with this movement and genuine croc is absolut FANTASTIC

The swan neck movement with the Glycudur screw balance is very expensive these days... if you can get it.

You will see a price BOMB on this unitas 6498 swan neck movement very soon.

Please keep in mind that this movements have a delivery time of 12-24 months. This means we (Tourby, Stowa etc.) orderd this movements 2 years ago for a affordable price.

But in the last 2 years this ETA movements have a price increase of 20% - 50%.

Should Tourby or Stowa order this movements today... we would pay 30% more as 2 years ago.

And this means we will make the prices higher very soon...

I have 50 Timepieces of this movement left. When this are sold out will sell the next run with 20% higher price beacuse i paid 30% more for the new order of movements.

And you will see that Stowa will make a 20% price increase very soon on this swan neck models when their actual stock should sold out.

regards
Tourby

Does this indirectly indicated that in year 2010 we will see a huge increase in watch price for most brands?

mr tourby just talk about supply for modified movement from soprod....
not all brand use the movement from soprod...
but most german brand use soprod....

and we dunno will soprod still able to get eta movement....
probably they can only get selita to modify and finish it...

takashi78 · « **Reply #41 on:** December 09, 2009, 10:21:49 PM »

So sad looks like we still short of people to make this LE a reality.

Hi guys,
Count me in for this watch. I think it's worthwhile to pay up for the swan neck movement. I recently ordered a pilot watch from Tourby with the Swan neck movement. Should be arriving early next week. Will try to post some pics of the movement as soon as I can.
We'd better hurry to place our orders before his stock runs out.

it will be euro850 with swan neck movement...
if we get the numbers we can bargain....
get free engraving...

Ho · « **Reply #48 on:** December 22, 2009, 11:25:15 AM »

1 Euro= RM4.9121

850 Euro= RM4175.30

wow, that is beyond many forum member's budget.

i have a suggestion, can we also have a cheaper japanese movement mwf watch project at the same time?

so that member like me can also enjoy the happiness for getting a unique and meaningful watch.

David_cheong · « **Reply #49 on:** December 22, 2009, 11:53:54 AM »

Woww...

When first quoted...its something hovering around rm2k.....no?.

Frankly, if its currently quoted around rm4k plus.....then it way beyond my budgets......

I have to think again...loh.....
