All great timepieces, Pplater!
You have such a marvelous collection! The Shimoda is my favorite PSM, the 1815 is one of my favorites from Lange, the MIH is one of the best buys out there IMO, and the Jutzi is quirky and beautiful in its own right. Great watches all!
Cheers,

GoldPfeil/Frank Jutzi Regulator
Greetings Purists, I'm not really a collector, although I love seeing the incredible watches everyone has around here. Rather, I have a little trio of watches that I love to wear for their uniqueness, variety and versatility. But they aren't anything terr...
Some thoughts
The Frank Jutzi is far more interesting than the Chopard. I've owned the Chopard LUC Sport 2000 and it is a wonderfully made watch and a great value proposition, but it is not that interesting. The Frank Jutzi is a fairly classical looking watch but it ha...
Thanks--2892-A2 and 36mm are the main concerns
It's a little small, and the movement isn't anything interesting. I've not seen the watch in person, so it's very difficult for me to know whether the execution and design overcome those limitations. Does it impress in person? Would it maintain interest o...
Price is a factor
As has been alluded to already, the price at which it's selling for now is very compelling and is a big factor in its favour. I can't think of another independent of this quality at this price. I would concern myself with the 2892 base, there are less int...
Can't agree entirely, SJX...
..(which in itself is unusual!). You write that: "It is not a flamboyant or obvious watch. .... If you are the Vianney Halter or MB&F type of person, this would not be exciting at all" . Speaking as someone who would also tick the Halter/MB&F boxes every ...
So it is true then
God is in the details.... of the dial. Great thoughts pplater, you make a lot of sense. - SJX
Seek one out...
It really is one of those watches that, as they say, you have to see in the metal to truly appreciate. Take it from a ‘large’ individual and a fan of larger sizes – it wears larger than its size! That may in part be a function of its very open face and th...
Thank you--and terrific catch there
It was the recent offering of that very watch that introduced me to the model and got me interested in the first place. I am also glad it ended up in such a fine home. The lug-to-lug length looks relatively long, and the strap width is wide; both must con...
If you can hold off...
...until the weekend it may be possible to organise some visual comparitors for you. Cheers, pplater.
Oh, I'll have to hold off longer than that, I think...
But I look forward to your pictures. This one is heading to the top of my list as a reward for a long anticipated goal/achievement. I still have a deep desire for a PSM Shimoda, so that's in competition as well, along with the possibility of having a cust...
BUY it. The Jutzi is ranked second only to the Vianney IMHO
The value is GREAT. It's under priced. The work is great. It's a clock made into a watch in its purest sense. The movt is "appropriate", and there are few works at the price today. I am guessing that it costs way low in 2009. The other piece to consider i...
I tend to shy away from advisories . . .
. . . but hope you won't mind my pointing out that you already have "something interesting, different and independent." Cordially, Art
The proof of the pudding in this case is having it in your hand....
Although _I_ think the Jutzi regulator would make a nice addition to your collection, it having a completely different esthetic than the others, that is just my opinion. I gave seen it close up, but never handled it so I don't know how it feels. For me th...
Some photos of Goldpfeil Jutzi
that I saved in my hard drive a few years ago. Hope this helps in your decision making. Cheers! Jutzi Blink..Blink... nice hah: Jutzi and Urwerk that Bernard was talking about:...
Some comparison shots...
Daniel, here's a few 'quick and dirty' shots which might give you (and others) some sense of proportion for the Goldpfeil/Jutzi regulator moonphase, using a couple of reference pieces which may resonate for you. You have mentioned your fondness for the Pe...
Who are you...
.... and what have you done with SJX ??? The real SJX knows that there is no such thing as 'too many' - there is always room for 'just one more'! Cheers, pplater.
All great timepieces, Pplater!

Good grief PP
You're a great resource in that if we need real time side by side comparison, you're probably the one to call since you have practically every interesting piece ever made. And you have to post your shimoda.. Gary's post on his was fantastic and your post ...
Won't go there...
Thanks for the kind words, wmf1, but any posting of a Shimoda is rendered obsolete by GaryG's top shelf photos of his superb iteration. Since Gary first began his quest to capture the special violet hand on his watch we have been treated to the first and ...
Another...
superb writeup. Thanks for sharing not only your collection as well as your artful prose but more so your time to do these comparos. We readers are all the more enlightened by them. Thanks again
This is an incredible post, and one I'll have book-marked indefinitely.
I am immensely thankful that you've taken the time to photograph and write about all of these watches in comparison to the Jutzi. It holds up very well in some outstanding company. I find the pictures of the case architecture very helpful indeed--the desi...
Well, since you ask...
This is not an obvious suggestion as it doesn't seem, at first, to play to any of the themes that appear to run in the collection that you have at the moment, nor the pieces you have parted with or the ones that you lust after. You will certainly know the...
