I am waiting for Basel.
I didn't want to go for rubber out of the Far East, even though that would be ok, it just would not go with the theme.
Same for the bracelets, there is one company i wish to speak with.
The bracelets will appear eventually, but after you visit this link and have a look, you will understand why there will be serious added cost.

And check this deployment on rubber!

Killer bracelet and deployant. Looks a bit like GO, and you can't do better than that.

The bracelet and deployant will be worth the wait and the additional $$$.

Oh baby baby....

Todd is da man.

“To absent friends, lost loves, old gods, and the season of mists; and may each and every one of us always give the devil his due.”
― Neil Gaiman, The Sandman

I bought a cheap watch from a crazy man
Floating down canal
It doesn't use numbers or moving hands
It always just says now
Now you may be thinking that I was had
But this watch is never wrong
And If I have trouble the warranty said
Breathe In, Breathe Out, Move On

Seriously, though, Thomas Prescher is insane. That triple-axis tourbillon is beyond mind-boggling, and homie builds those himself by hand. By hand. The same hands that are gonna be making my CD-2... :whistle: :headbang:

I'm so freakin' excited right now. And drunk (there was an open bottle of wine on the table, so I drank it).

Todd, this one is going in the history books.

Adam

Can you clear this up for me- what movement is going in the LE, and what movement is going in the regular edition?

Also, is Prescher building parts?

An MHVJ cal.2005 is going into the LEs, while the Soprod A10 is going into the regular production model. As for Prescher's involvement in the construction of the LE, that's Todd's balliwick, so I'll let him answer.
