28 June 2010 Singapore - This evening, 50 pax strong PuristS gathered to attend the Audemars Piguet PuristSPro event and also to meet the revered Mr Giulio Papi. In addition, many key complicated pieces were present for our viewing pleasure. Among them we...

 By: DaMctosh : July 2nd, 2010-10:51
The Jules Audemars Chronometer is something else and must surely be the most expensive time only wristwatch with no diamonds or tourbillon. That high beat is really amazing and as Giulio said, is possible because no lubrication is needed. It was tested to... 

Thanks for the aditional points ...

Wow...fantasitc report and what a selction of timepieces!

 
 By: eric_s : July 4th, 2010-21:05
I love the offshores, but nice to see the other complicated models get some much deserved exposure...the JA high-beat chrono is stunning!

AP--43,200 v/hrs vs Zenith --36,600v/hr

 
 By: Steven Tan : July 4th, 2010-21:34
I owned the Zenith Chrono Master which run at 36,000 v/hr and thought that it was the faster to-date till AP coming out the 43,200v/hr. In normal condition, the faster should increase the accuracy but may trade off by wear and tear thus needed frequent ma... 

What great pictures!

 
 By: dxboon : July 4th, 2010-22:03
Wow! I'm drooling over all those exceptional APs, Kong! I love the Chronometer especially, and long to make a collection out of that watch, the GO PanoInverse, and Breguet La Tradition. Now THAT would be a theme worth collecting!! Thanks also for the reco... 

Great and cosy event !

Superb coverage & pics.The sound of that Hi-beat is like nothing I have heard before in a watch - like a locomotive train going at 200MPH!

Thanks Fernado ...

Thank you for the invite and it was indeed a most enjoyable evening - in particular, it was wonderful to met Dr. Mao once again in person since our last Purists event meeting in 2003. I hope I will be fortunate enough to be passing through SIngapore next ...
