Special pieces for PuristS 10th Anniversary

Oct 03, 2010,13:50 PM
 

Dear PuristS,

A number of you have expressed great interest to know what we have planned for PuristS 10th Anniversary.

While we can't give exact details yet, we can tell you that there will be exciting special models and series to celebrate our 10th anniversary as a community.

There will be at least 3 special models from independents long cherished and respected by PuristS.

There will be special series from brands long supportive and friends of PuristS.

So save your buying dollars for 2011; you will not be sorry!

All the best, just back from SIAR in Mexico City (wonderful event!) And on my way to...

smile

So excited I have to post a reply! Sorry ladies and gents. I've been quite inactive recently because I have been unwell since I came back from travel and still am (sorting it out with a few medical specialists). It's one of those nagging "sickness" that m...

4 digit

 
 By: takashi78 : October 7th, 2010-00:03
Looks like i will be able to only afford the 4 digit version. But $1000 and $9999 is also 4-digit so what should we expect? I hope it will be as "affordable" as the St Gallen piece. Maybe members from the lower end of the spectrum need to be considered as... 

They are, and will be, my friend...

 
 By: ThomasM : October 10th, 2010-18:13
The PuristS community is about the passion; price and money and "pissing contests" are secondary. In our shared passion, we are all equals...and equally appreciated. Yes, there will be "ABR" level offering...(well, slightly higher but not much...)

So happy again

 By: RJW : October 4th, 2010-00:05
At least 3 special models AND special series from supportive brands. The only thing is: Can I abstain from buying another watch for 7 months?????????????????? OK. Starting now. D'oh! Starting now. Arghh! Starting tomorrow. Eeeek! Starting next week.......... 

no watches for 7 month?!

 
 By: aldossari_faisal : October 4th, 2010-02:56
are you relating to the tottal number of months you've remained away from buying a watchor the 7 is the time the watches will be out in?! Faisal

 By: Koen S. : October 4th, 2010-00:42
Are we going to dissapoint fellow purists or will we ask for a deposit and everybody will be happy? I mean not 300pieces for 2600 requests! give me your thoughts. Koen S.

+1

 
 By: aldossari_faisal : October 4th, 2010-02:49
i cant simply get it why would you reject something getting you load of cash flow, and no one tell me due to certain standerds they are about business " in the case of 300 watch against 2600 request" . Faisal

Great and interesting news.

 
 By: VMM : October 4th, 2010-01:21
So I guess I must start saving. Maybe there will be something affordable and irresistable. Thanks. Vte

 By: AnthonyTsai : October 4th, 2010-07:16
Ideally, we hope all PuristS 10th watches to be ready for deliver at IGOTT 2, but there always are delays. So I would expect prototypes to be available to be seen at IGOTT2 and hopefully some deliveries. - Anthony

Congrats to thePuristS...

Most tantalising!

 
 By: DaMctosh : October 5th, 2010-08:31
Looking forward very much to the details Thomas. Perhaps it may be against the grain but novel and maybe even groundbreaking if the PuristS decide to make as many pieces as desired, rather than a fixed limited number. Isnt this in line with the PuristS cr... 

Unfortunately manufacturers do not work that way

 
 By: AnthonyTsai : October 5th, 2010-19:09
there always needs to be a fixed # of watches if we are making "customizations". Cheers, Anthony

Thanks Anthony

 
 By: DaMctosh : October 6th, 2010-08:30
How about a deadline for orders so the requisite number can be ordered (dials, hands etc)? Maybe not for all three anniversary editions but the 4 digit and/or 5 digit ones? This message has been edited by damien on 2010-10-06 08:31:04

What a great event and special pieces

 
 By: chronomtr : October 5th, 2010-21:21
