THANKS alot KONG
again such a gigantic report needs a respectful amount of time and work i so appreciate that mate, now going back to the watches well ... i did love the fact that they take much care of details BUT a lot of much put together on a watch is causing me " at least " a neural noise which is bugging me for real, this is the sort of watch you admire when you look to it details and when you have a general look its a NO NO , diamonds, gemstones, torubillon, power reserve indicated , sky, moon.... and the list goes on all that on a single dial that a lot of traffic in there :S .
creating everything in tourbillon doesn't make a brand a high end one nor unique , which is the case in here its torubillon this torubillon that, torubillon here a torubillon there and i got a torubillion everywhere :P .
i SO appreciate it their efforts and their achievements YET i would love them to be more relaxed on the dials , display and go on some torubillon diet .

DeWitt Colloquium at Sincere Watch Academy
Last week, Mr Jérôme de Witt, President of DeWitt was in town and had a meet up session organised by the Sincere Watch Academy and FJ Benjamin to introduce Maison DeWitt and showed some of the later collections . FJ Benjamin is the exclusive distributor o...
Répétition Minutes Tourbillon GMT Antipode
is a really awesome piece...the chiming is loud and clear....housed in WG and titanium case. but alas...the prices are accordingly so astronomical. had the pleasure of fondling it, yes...fondling...as opposed to wearing, the AD wouldnt let a evidently can...
Good input ...
from a veteran on the chiming Too many people, could not record it for the friends here. If you just seen it last week, the reason could be the piece is reserved, thus they were extremely careful with it. Kong
thks
i heard i over dinner with a 3 piece smooth jazz bandabout 5m aways, and the chiming is still loud and clear. in that environment, thats abt all one can ask for.
damn...how did u know??
its louder then the dewitt...plus comes with volume control...
You answered my question...
Which was going to be how DeWitt was going to handle the collapse of BNB as their tourbillon supplier. That new in-house movement looks quite nice, a bit more classical than the somewhat over-the-top tourbillons of the past... A
Glad...
to be of value-added Seems like DeWitt capabilities have grown. Even can manufacture own hairspring (if I heard correctly while snapping away) The new Calibre looks good and the wave-like pattern on the rotor is pretty smart, sort of using sinusoid to cha...
Hmmm, yes
That rotor in the video was intersting, quite a change from the simple gear system of the Bucherer. This design looks like an inside-out Pellaton to me.... A
Thanks!
It has achieved the mind-share with the WoW! At least we could appreciate the creation even could own it at the moment. It's good to have a dream Kong
THANKS alot KONG

Quite my attitude and impressions!
Kong did some glorious work. But your writing did more for me than the whole presentation ! As always just inside or outside the Door, amerix
Thanks Faisal...
For the inputs. Now with the DW8014, we shall wait to see their 'trim down' pieces next year However, some of the "richer and more wholesome" pieces may be needed for certain segmentation. After all it is a business. Kong
Jump seconds is one of my favorite complications...
...so the new caliber is VERY interesting to me! The video was fantastic and I loved seeing animations of the peripheral rotor. Fascinating really. With DeWitt presumably launching watches using the new caliber shortly, and Tim and Bart Grönefeld debuting...
Thanks Ms "Jump-Second" :-)
Waiting to see their new collection too. How's your Habring 2 Jump-Second ? Thanks for kind words and viewing. Kong
It's great!
No regrets about buying the Habring 2 . Although, these last few weeks have been wearing my AP RO, so right now everyone else is resting in the watchbox. Cheers, Daos
I like the bicycle chain!
As evident, DeWitt is very serious in watchmaking. Regards Ling
Definitely in the game ...
Also a fully-owned company, so they can independently. The aesthetic may not be a bit 'loud' to some, anyway, we shall see what's next in their collection. Thanks for viewing. Kong
Awesome pieces
i havn't seen any Dewitt in metal, they look delicious & macho from the pic! thx Kong for the report cheers, Ed~
More choices :-)
Hi Ed Check it out and keen to hear your inputs. Also look out and see what they have for next year with the new calibre. Thanks for viewing. Kong
some very interesting pieces, especially the differential and dead second
i agree with Daos, the video was excellent and the method of winding from peripheral rotor is very innovative if not unusual. i just hope it works in production. Graham
Hi G ...
another two quarters, and we will know It should work with the 'rocking suspension'. Kong
Missed this one but noticed it's not as crowded as the previous sessions
for JLC /AP. cheers PAt
Some stunning creations.
Not my style, but nice watches, Some of the movements look fantastic. Thanks. Vte
Understand ...
The Academia Quatieme Perpetuel GMT Nebula is nice! Does that come closer to your liking? Kong
Hi.
Hi Kong. The Nebula? not my favorite, busy dial (to me). My fav by far is the Academia Tourbillon Differentiel, its dial looks great. The WX-1 looks stunning in terms of design and construction. It would look great on Kenneth Branagh' or Will Smith' wrist...
