I own two
Oct 24, 2020,08:42 AM
I have a Bespoke Remontoire and the Parallax Tourbillon. They are both different and I love them both. Those are the two I like the most.
Like their other pieces too but cannot own them all

Grönefeld
By: Cozmopak : October 23rd, 2020-14:14
If you could choose one Grönefeld, which would it be? Of course everyone is familiar with the remontoire. It’s a gorgeous watch. But the more I look at and learn about the One Hertz, the more I wonder whether this watch may be a better representation of t...
All other things being equal I would choose the One Hertz. But...

all other things are not equal and at 43mm this is non starter. Having had several 1941 on the wrist it’s just perfect for me, and for many others. More traditional in sizing, and perhaps therefore more durable long term (in terms of fashion, style, weara...
Why just one?

In all seriousness, though, the 1941 case is absolutely sublime. It is easy to be taken by the movements or the dials, but the 1941 case, to me, is perfection. And if that case is perfection, the Remontoire is the one to have, if just one. But as you can ...
Thats a stunning and amazing couple.

Been thinking about the baby blue Principia a lot lately 😬. Would look amazing next to my Remontoire. But a beautiful One Hertz would look great too . Can’t go wrong with any Gronefeld imho
Thank you my friend.

I really can’t say enough positive things about the Principia. It’s just a stunning and fantastic watch for every day, and that blue is very nice. I must confess that I like them all. I have thought about adding a one hertz, but without having the benefit...
Most welcome. Cozmopak 🥂

I am not an are a lot of experts collectors and masters here who can give more detail analysis. What I wrote is just my personal feelings and emotion towards those models. 😁😍
1941 Remmontoire

Customized of course! Kari dial with my company's colors. Light grey + blue.
I know this has been discussed before
By: Cozmopak : October 24th, 2020-08:19
But I still don’t understand the Hodinkee edition of the remontoire. Why would you get rid of the visible governor on the dial? That is the most unique aspect of the dial, and something you don’t see anywhere else. But I guess everyone’s tastes differ! ...
very true

except the governor is so uniquely gorgeous. one of a kind beauty

I understand the limits that may require one -

If you are buying one piece, the selection process is somewhat easier - size, style, available, etc. From a collecting pov, you add other aspects like does one "build" off the technique or technology of the other (ie Gauthier HMS as the extension of the H...
availability
By: mark1958a : October 25th, 2020-12:39
The parallax tourbillon and remointore are sold out. I am not sure about the one hertz but they do come up on the used market. I have not seen a parallax tourbillon of recent. I was fortunate because a dealer had one that was sold but the buyer bailed out...
The remontoire
By: Cozmopak : October 25th, 2020-13:29
Frequently comes up on the used market.
I chose the 1941 Principia in Rose gold with Roman Numeral Dial.
By: hanke : October 25th, 2020-14:17
I love automatic movements so this was an easy choice. With this dial I believe it looks fantastic on any strap choice. I can't wait to try other straps in the future. If there is a better time only AUTOMATIC watch on the market I want to see it. A close ...
Excellent choice .
By: Watchonthewrists : October 25th, 2020-14:58
This is one beautiful Principia. And a Sports watch from the Brothers would be very cool indeed . Who knows 🤷🏻♂️. Time will tell
Arrrgh you are touching my sweet spot here...
By: Mike H : October 25th, 2020-18:14
Tim and Bart are incredibly gifted and make fantastic watches. The One Hertz is definitely stunning but unfortunately not for me for three main reasons: too large for my (very) small wrist, too striking and eye catching for my (maybe too) classic style, a...
1941 case
By: A-Web : October 25th, 2020-18:32
Same here. I too have an extra small wrist but the 1941 case fits me like charm.
