Curious about Faberge watches...

Nov 18, 2019,21:04 PM
 

Does anyone here own this brand? I'm intrigued with their dual time piece below. A very novel take on the GMT complication, the movement looks great, and the retail price is quite reasonable. My one criticism is that it's not the kind of watch I would have expected from the Faberge name, and something involving guilloche and enamel work might be more appropriate for the brand IMO. This looks like something from DeBethune, especially with the combination of gold and titanium. But that's certainly not a bad thing!

Movement is probably by Agenhor... Well Fabergé is in a very small niche. They try to become more modern! This is a good and important thing [imho]❗️👍🏻

A fascinating watch - my friend Jonathan has one - here are live pics

Yes, movement by Agenthor ...  

The chronograph is great too, reminds me of the Maxichrono. Again, very DeBethune-ish!

Do you have any comments on how it wears? The 43mm case size sounds off-putting to me, but the lugs are very short so I'm wondering if that makes it more wearable.

Glad to hear that!

I'll have to keep an eye out for the opportunity to try one of these on.

That's the disk with the numerals you see at the center of the watch, there's a lens above it
