Magnum Skrev:Personligt kan jeg rigtigt godt lide 7750, fantastik værk/arbejdshest, men der skal også være "en mening med galskaben".
Jeg synes feks at det begynder at blive svært at forsvare, når fabrikkerne benytter 7750 i alm. stålure over en 30k, selvom værkerne er cosc, blå skruer osv. Så er det ikke value for money mere, så bliver det image/livsstil der betales for.

Det IWC laver med GC, svarer lidt til at bygge en Rolls Royce ovenpå et folkevognsrugbrød.

Citat:

I can tell you that brands like PP and AP have all built a rolls royce on a folkvogn as you put it.But nothing could be farther from the truth.Any true expert on swiss watches would tell you this.This as been debated again and again on our blogg.All i can say is that you are all saying something that contadicts everything i have ever read about swiss watches and is a common mistake made by many people.I will leave it there because this kind of debate is not based on fact but hear say. happy new year Willy

Willy, you are basing your opinions on hear say and what you read in magazines and blogs.

I base mine on facts, and my watchmaker experiences.
I have visited the IWC factory in Schaffhausen, and seen the GC in person, as with the DaVinci Tourbillon. Have you?

You are right that is has always been normal to use ebauche in the business. That is also fine by me, but it has never been normal to use the cheapest ebauche for the most expensive complications.
When Asprey, some years ago, ordered some grande complications from AP, AP asked Philipee Dufour to make them. They didn´t ask ETA.

Citat:

It does not matter so much eubauches are cheap anyway its what they do with them that counts.Philipee Dufour worked for Patek as you know he thinks the finish on a Lang is the best of any manufactured watch.And i am sure that ETA who are the biggest in the world could equal or beat any basic ebauche from any one you can name if we leave out people like Dufour.And yes i have seen those watches and no i am not a watchmaker.But i have read more about watches than almost anyone i have ever met and i can remember everything.It is a gift that i have.I listen to you and i put what you say against other experts i have read and then i make up my mind who should i believe most.I can learn from you because you are a watchmaker.And you can learn from me because i also have talents you do not have.Nothing is black or white in the watch world .I think saying that IWC use the cheapest eubauches is not the truth and just confuses people. Willy. PS.Hannova will give me telling off now because i compaired Lang with PP. <!-- s:lol: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_lol.gif" alt=":lol:" title="Laughing" /><!-- s:lol: --> <!-- s:lol: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_lol.gif" alt=":lol:" title="Laughing" /><!-- s:lol: --> Willy
