I'm affraid the link is wrong;-)
But their watches look fine, I'm unsure about their in-house movement. A truely in-house mov. with 500 pieces/year wouldn't be sustainable, as development might cost millions in CHF, if I'm correct. Do they sell movements for other brands?

I have a 181° model that I bought a few years ago...
Stylistically it is quite conservative, and at 42.5mm fills my wrist. I bought it from an AD when I lived in Kuala Lumpur who was very knowledgeable and we spent a lot of time discussing the firm, construction of the watch, etc. The movement is what attra...
