Independents

Overall - from Unitas 6497 - organically round bridges , frosted / sand blasted bridges, swanneck regulator added…


Not just surface part is anglage…



Barrel and winding wheel teeth is mirror polished as well as screw head



Anglage anglage anglage
And jewel counter sink black polished

Who else does it better at this price range ?

Comparing those earlier pieces, most obvious is the movement finishing …
Room to improve is there
But this price range, no others doing all these

And what the dial side looks like ? 

Yes range of 5-8k depend on model n finishing l

meaning that the finishing on the movement is nice, but not really... time consuming. The anglage of the bridges for instance is a cheap approach. Well polished, yes, but considering the shape of the edges, it is probably motor made and that'd go pretty fast. Having a nice center wheel is killed by the industrial ones underneath. And few other details. But nonetheless, the result is efficient. Simple solutions but well done are more important to me than complicated ones but poorly executed. For instance, I'd rather have a cheap sandblasting that does the trick than some poor cotes de Geneve.
Dial side looks more balanced to me with efforts more evenly spread. I'd say that investments are 80% on the dial side. And I don't mean it in a bad way.
So quality is good, the design is very interesting. That makes definitely a good "bang for the buck".

The watch itself stand out

I have added a few pics of my FPSK22. He has mastered his skills dramatically over the past few years, and his price range is similar to Stefan Ketelaars. I look forward to being able to place order for Terra Luna 😊

He focus more on finishing compare to ketelaars …
