Need confirmation from a PAtek expert
Hi all, The other day while I was in the tube at Waterloo station I saw a guy with the below watch at his wrist (It was a white metal one but tourbillon and looking quite similar to the one there) I was a bit intrigued so i googled it and foudn this one w...
I would have hoped that a fake would at least look like the real thing
A poor copy. Also please note that Patek always places its tourbillon at the back of the watch rather than displayed in front. Partly due to discretion and partly due to the fact that the sunlight is said to affect the accuracy of the tourbillon. Patek to...
Sure 😂😂😂
It’s called Patek Philippe Richard Lange Tourbillon ...🤣 Dear Sir that is a total fake !!!
haha
thanks all for your replies/confirmations !! I am far from being a patek expert (only have 1) but I sensed that something was wrong + the tourbillon was really static and not moving but I was not sure if sometime it stops as expected or something like tha...
It's not even replica...
it's a Chinese movement made in Hong Kong and it's an "open balance," not a tourbillon. Horrible wanna-be. -Dean
Hahaha
Usually also I think there is the sign of the patek on the crow no? On that one I noticed there was nothing. Anyway did not know who that chap was but found that quite interesting. I am sure 4 years ago I would not have even been able to say what patek is...
These replicas serve as a “how not to design a dial”
The disparate elements, sharp edges on the dial cutouts, lack of symmetry, etc. The crown as well, is just totally wrong for the watch. Patek has released some watches in their catalog that I’d say are “difficult to love”, but they rarely look like they’v...
quick precision
The watch this guy was wearing is not EXACTLY the one on the picture ... would have been akward to take a snapshot while holding the bar in the tube haha (it was packed!) but this one on the picture looks VERY VERY similar to it, except his one was white ...
As already pointed out, there’s no tourbillon on that watch.
It’s just the balance wheel, somewhat reminiscent of a design you’ll see from some genuine brands, often referred to as “open heart”, and sold at the cheap end of the market.
That day/night indicator is a direct giveaway....looks “cheap”...
I don’t believe any major Swiss brand uses it.
