Finally… after a 3 year wait, my Gronefeld 1941 Remontoire is here

Took a bit longer due to Covid-19 and I also had to shelf plans to visit Bart and Tim in Oldenzaal this year. The brothers are incredible watchmakers and their attention to detail is amazing. Communication channel is open and it’s nice to follow what’s go...  

Superb!

One of the great watches in the history of independent watchmaking in my opinion., Enjoy your new watch!

Your memory is commendable! :-)

Mine should arrive towards the end of this year or early next year - a slight delay due to the pandemic. Probably one of the last ones I am guessing.

The 188th! :0)

In some countries

that would be a very lucky number!

Coincidentally

my watch was ordered from Singapore too so I shall have to fly there to collect it!

That would be great!

Right now, I am just hoping that a vaccination passport will exist between Singapore and Malaysia to facilitate easier travelling between the two countries.

Indeed! Do stay safe.

I always enjoy reading the first impressions of owners when their piece first arrives. I was too late to act on this one, but it’s nonetheless uplifting to see pictures and read the first posts such as yours. Thanks for sharing and enjoy in the best of he... 

Big congrats! Superb watch!

I did contemplate the orange dial. In the end, my buddy chose the orange and I opted for the Rhodium for variety.

I have the pleasure to know a few Singapore collectors who have the Remontoire and it is such an exquisite piece. That movement is absolutely gorgeous. Wear it in the best of health!

Yes my friend

I definitely hope so! I last met them when they came to meet some collectors in July 2019.

Spectacular

That was the draw for me when the AD suggested it could be customised.
