Here is the video / sound of the RÉPÉTITION SOUVERAINE - Ref. RM, that a few of you requested in my previous thread.
Some folks say that FPJ Repeater is not as loud as Patek.
One nneds to consider thar this watch is so special because how very thin it is at only 8.5mm and it is quite remarkable that F.P managed to create a minute repeater caliber 1408 that is only 4.5mm thick.
I guess it is expected then to have a little bit of the trade off. You have a thicker watch you will have bigger Echo and a bigger sound. The FPJ RM is thinner, so it is not as loud.
I never had a chance to hear Patek repeater but I still own JLC Reverso Repeater. It is a preety small watch and I would say that they are at the about same level when it comes to the loudness,....(FPJ being significantly more *musical* and somewhat nicer sounding)
Here is the link to the video file in my Dropbox folder....hope it works:

Amazing. Thank you for posting and
Thanks for sharing your MR in action!
I’m inclined to agree here.
Okay. But I am wondering what he was referencing by calling it "technically impressive"
Probably because its *THIN* not just comfortable (which of course comes with a 'thin' watch)
As far as I know there are at least 4 MR's that are thinner;
Excellent.....thanks for putting together the list up. I knew only abot 2
Beautiful watching beautiful sound ....but it is so thick..
Typical FPJ MR sound due to the construction, hammers hit very compact gongs located on the front. The sound level has been increased since it’s inception, when FPJ many years back changed the way and the angle the hammers
