Sarpaneva's Moon. Gotta love it!
Add some Ambient Glow Technology and you get starshine at night Now I've been pondering about getting one of his watches for a long time, but never pulled the trigger because every time I had doubt about what model to choose (first choice Harvest Moon was...
An ode to a great guy and a genius watchmaker!
You can\'t go wrong... that salmon dial....... just drooling Mo
Stepan is great to work with.
He really keep you involved in the process. After all is said and done you will want to do it again, trust me. Funny thing is I also followed him for a few years before I finally ordered a very cool Sarpaneva. Look forward to seeing your special Sarpaneva...
What kind of Sarpaneva do you have? Can't recall seeing it here?
Picture please as we all can\'t get enough of watch pictures
Here you go.
Sarpaneva rocks. My photos do not show the vibrant dial colors. Something about the glow. ...
Really, is there a more photogenic watch brand than Sarpaneva?
Every watch is just so much fun from every angle. I'm a huge fan and hope to have one, one day!
Very cool post!
Looking forward to the finished product but going through your decision journey has been very pleasant, too! And the pictures...
The salmon dialled one...!
I\'m with Mo - that salmon-dialled one is super! What\'s the base movement for the simple ones? Do you know if it can be had as a two-hander? Must look into this. Hmmmm. Best E.
Just checked his website...
It\'s not on there :-( but I\'m assuming it\'s using the same Soprod A10...
It seems his website isn't really being properly updated. Go to his Facebook page for the latest (pictures).
Yes as far as I know it\'s still the Soprod.
Hey, glad we are sharing the same thought on that salmon beauty
Soprod indeed... Plus the case is treated in a way that reminisce titanium,,, slightly gray, plus salmon plus brown strap... winner! Mo
Cool and agreed...
Does anyone know if Stepan cases up the movements unaltered from their state when he receives them from Soprod? Or does he do anything with them? Best E.
No not really
what I know (more or less..."I\'ve heard the bell but I don\'t know where the clapper is"...as we say in Holland) is is that a part of his modified movement is integrated with the watch case (!). And you can set the watch and moon cycle simply with the cr...
Soprod
The phases of the moon complication (yes, it is) is build directly into the movement.... which keeps the thickness more decent specially with the 9.8mm 3D moons ( thickness 0.5), the winding system works actually better with heavier ( diameter bigger than...
Thank you...
What a great surprise to see you here! I assume you keep the rest of the movement pretty much the same? No change to the escapement? What about finishing generally? It would be very interesting to hear more about the rose-dialled model we saw earlier... B...
Soprod II
No modifiactions on a escapement, perlage finition. actually the dial is more brownish than rose ( I have the rose one too) made from the order only, 2 different sizes.... more info by email, thanks.
