Yes, as I made passing reference to in my original post there are now ways to customize the watch, for a considerable premium.

I do think the initial runs of the Joker (1 steel and 1 Ti) and the Clown (Steel) were devalued somewhat by this customization. I don’t necessarily mean this in a monetary sense.

OK, so you guys have seen the Joker. Now it’s time to bring out the Clowns!!! When the Joker first released I, like many others, thought how refreshing and fun. And that initial run was also priced relatively fairly in my opinion. I hesitated, just a litt...

Thanks Fab.

While there’s nothing groundbreaking from a horological (technical) perspective here I think the concept is genius. For a serious watchmaker, and Chaykin has real credentials and creativity, these watches may have been a bit of gamble. The reception for t...
Great story !

Of course!

I went to their website and they now can make the Joker watch tailored to your personal design. The price did go up higher than the initial Joker watch but I think it's still fair. That a super version Joker Automation is definitely fun too, so is the pri...
Cool and fun.

Watchmaking and watch collecting need this. I’m thinking Chaykin and Sarpaneva might be the real heirs to Gerald Genta. Bright and sassy and loaded with attitude. Quite happy you got this. And looking forward to seeing it.
