Lecompte?
Has anyone owned a piece by him? The pricing relative to what you get seems bananas. Check out some of these angles and overall level of finishing. Love the dial side balance too, am a complete sucker for it. ...
A famous watch influencer has also posted about this timepiece on IG.
Hadn’t heard about prior. Looks great. Thanks for sharing
Who on IG?
Since I follow that brand pretty close I’m interested in everything about it
i'm friends with the owner of that piece and will be borrowing the watch soon to photograph :)
i post my photos as "waitlisted" on IG
haha thank you!
we all had dinner last night (me, nycwatchguy, the owner of the lecomte, and watchmatician on this forum) and I have the Lecomte with me now. it's very beautiful.
he works limited series of 10 -12 pieces
the one in my pic is from his first series, the one in yours is from his second. Both sold out. I am waiting for my second as well. Collaboration with him is flawless, so are his watches.
This serie 1 is such a amazing and beautiful watch . To bad I missed out on that one .
Can’t wait to see the serie 2 in person.
Looks gorgeous.
The balance spring looks quite unusually dense, if this makes sense. I need to read more about it
A true master watchmaker who only works in very small limited series. This serie 2 will only have 12 (13 with this prototype)lucky owners
It will take him 2 years to complete them all
I know him pretty well
And his work is unbelievable. Those sharp inward angles are among the best you’ll find, even talking about watches that cost 10 times more. Florent Lecomte is honest and told the clients he made as good as everything himself... including for example the b...
Can’t wait for this report, Bruno!
Was bummed to have missed out on his latest offering. The few conversations he and I have had on IG gives me the impression he is a true gentleman in addition to his obvious incredible watchmaking skill.
Absolutely spectacular
Thanks for the info. I knew little about this second series except for the few posts I’ve seen on IG. Can you tell us the rough price bracket this second series falls into?
Doesn’t matter
He sent pricing but the reality is that the next batch he does will be much more. He clearly did this to help build his brand which is awesome if someone got into the run. Let’s just say that even at 5x of the price of these I haven’t seen angles like tha...
Seems like really great value for the money!
Can’t wait to see what his next watch is.
Super nice guy!!
I dont own any but if I could I would as they are very unique, special, exclusive, and made by a nice guy, everything a person could want in a watch!
