Joining in the hype with the Furlan Marri Havana Salmon Ref. 1031A. Just received my watch recently and would like to share my short thought on it.
Right off the bat, the fact that it uses a meca-quartz caliber is likely to turn away many potential buyers. However after having some hands on time with the watch, I really think that the quality of the case, crown, pushers, dial, hands and even the straps (it comes with an extra strap) shines through and adds up to a very compelling package. I dare say it readily punches above its asking price. Even the packaging that the watch comes in is really nice.
All in all, I do feel that this first release is a sincere effort from the Furlan Marri team. I definitely look forward to what they will come up with for their next release.
I've seen these on and off. So all sold out on their website, I then decided to check chrono24 and people are asking 2-3k euro for 412 euro watch. How greedy have people become?
So ridiculous how the second hand market is. Watches being bought by flippers who inflate prices. I believe they will be making further runs. The one I got was from the initial Kickstarter campaign and people are just starting to receive them
