There is no more "value" in an Audio Note Gaku On for $300k as there is an $800k tourbillon. A Swiss watchmaker makes under $100k in yearly wages, way under in most cases. Even if it takes a year to put one together as they claim, that's $100k plus what a few thousand dollars more in "raw" materials. The rest of the $800k is divided up between the manufacturer and 30-40% dealer margin for selling you that tourbillon in white gloves. That's the problem with our civilization and always has been. Greed, power and control and ultimately it will end badly as we all know too well.

For the record Serge, I don't own nor have desire to own a tourbillon.

Me neither. Not this one and certainly not one for much more. I posted this because I thought someone may find it interesting enough to purchase for fun for under a grand. A tourbillon is supposed to be the holy grail of watches.

Agreed. But, my Rolex is +1 second since July 19th. That says something for Rolex engineering, manufacturing, and quality control. |

My 18 year old Rolex is nowhere near as accurate as yours but I have kept if for sentimental reasons. I really do not like to wear watches daily anyway. The iPhone tells me precisely what time it is anytime I need to know.

Wow! That’s amazing. My Rolex loses a minute a month. I’m not very happy with its most recent $1,000 service by Rolex.
