TAT is not really important in watchmaking...
Watch selection is a personal matter. I have gotten to the point in life where I like comfort, dependability and value. Since its inception, the Habring2's have been the best value on the market. They are also very utilitarian in design and execution. You cannot compare them to a Dufour in finish or a steam punk design from Halter-Barnes (that reference has to age me). Their watches are in my price range and afford me a great complication that I can wear as a daily timepiece.

Don - I didn't want to hijack TopCats thread, so I am re-posting the information in a new thread with what happened. Feel free to add-on and let me know if you have had any slow motion moments with your watches. Maria and Richard made a tourbillon for me ...
Thanks Dave for elaborating........
Though I have come close, I have always been fortunate, for it land on a soft landing. There cannot be many "accidents" that top this type and make most of us cringe :( In hindsight, did you make the right choice ;) Has Richard advised how long it will ta...

Aw, bummer! Don't take it off!
I have *never* been required to take a watch off during security check at the airport. Keep it on your wrist and they can use the wand if they need to check it. TSA cannot make you remove it, and they aren't insured for damage that might occur if it is da...
Sorry to hear that, but the silver lining is that it's a Habring
And you know the support and service levels of the wonderful Richard and Maria. Post again when the watch is returned and restored. Good luck mate Best, Horo
really sorry to hear about this, but it can be fixed

I feel your pain on dropping a watch Dave
Did it to my Panerai dropping it 8ft down my stairs at home. Stuffed up the movement. I was a very lucky man not to break anything else. Hope it gets fixed quite and back on your wrist
Hey Dave, from the photo I could feel the...
... swift kick to the shins myself. It's a good thing Maria and Richard are such amazing and accommodating people. Maria responds to email faster than my company VP. I have a feeling it will be perfect upon its return. - Scott
