Thanks for sharing. Even if I don't really like it the chinese watch industry is worth a look when they don't try to gimmick Swiss brands. What about Minute Repeaters ?

I am really curious to see what they are able to do in this filed ? Do you have a chance to see some and give us some feedback ? Tourbillons are not necessarily the complication I fancy most, but Minute Repeaters...
