No conventional marketing or advertising and a three-year waiting list: the Frodsham Double Impulse Chronometer Wristwatch
By: Rosneathian : October 25th, 2020-19:01
Why slog it out on a waitlist for a steel sports watch when you can wait a similar amount of time and be the proud owner of a truly rare piece of horological artistry?
Congrats, indeed a stunning piece - I love enamel dials and this might have easily been one from the pictures (while it's in fact ceramic). A real beauty to have on your wrist! ;-) [nt]
Hi. I should have clarified that I don't own one, and probably never will. I wanted to post it because I find the company's story and investment in this watch worth sharing. [nt]
In its September 2018 article, SJX based in Singapore listed the prices as follows: £68,500 in steel, £73,000 in 18k rose gold, and £74,500 in 22k yellow gold. [nt]
Mainly media based projects, so photography and videography for a nine part lecture that the Frodsham team gave last November on the process of manufacturing a precision English wristwatch.
Research on known, and some unknown, Frodsham timepieces (the current owners retain an extensive archive on the firm's history).
Photographing any Frodsham timepieces brought into the London gallery by owners so that the database could be updated.
