Today I have received my BA111OD Chapter 4 Tourbillon. I have booked it right after watching your video on BA111OD back in November 2021. I must say that I would have never considered to order the watch, until hearing from you. The watch is nice and whole project is quite extraordinary so... thank you 👍👍👍
@@howardyang1397 I am in Italy. I think that the shipment date is related to the production lot and my watch was in the first one. By the way I made a small video on my watch that you can find here on youtube seaching for "BA111OD".
Another great video Marc Andrea. In our quick chat yesterday I mentioned that maybe one day, high end watchmaking maybe available for less, and today you have given an example of it. Thanks
Thank you Marc & team for the upload. What a bloody gorgeous watch! I hope the company goes from strength to strength with their design language and customer focused outlook.
Tout simplement géniale ce genre de vidéo ! J’adore ce projet et de le voir ce concrétiser et en voir les différents composants sortir des ateliers, c’est top ! Bravo à Thomas et toute l’équipe !😊👍🏻
Excellent video once again Marc Andre. I think the Chinese will be very worried soon, when Swiss prices will almost match Chinese prices with far better quality. Viva La Watchmaking.❤️🙏
I wonder if the 44mm case size has anything to do with the low price... it's surely got to make parts easier to produce. It might also explain why they still have watches available to purchase, since the hottest part of the market right now is mostly sub 40mm!
I love this watch and their other watches. The only thing I worry when considering buying one of these tourbillon watches, is since they are a new company, I'd worry they might go out of business and then you'd have trouble getting parts/service on the watches. The other thing I think they could do better is the way they sell them. A lot of people are turned off by the Alfuender sales model and call it a pyramid scheme so they automatically refuse to take their amazing watch seriously. I personally think it's cool what they're doing, but it doesn't matter what I think, it matters what the general watch buying public thinks that will keep them in business. Cool watches and ideas none the less.
I was just about to buy one but then I had a realization - the tourbillon is nowadays a more artistic complication than a technical one. Therefore, buying a “Costco” version of a tourbillon seems somewhat off. I don’t mean to play down the importance of what they’ve been able to achieve, it just isn’t something I’d personally buy. After all, I believe there are Chinese tourbillon watches for 500 USD, so this isn’t quite the cheapest tourbillon out there. Best of luck to them though
Yes, totally understand your point of view but for some people it’s still a very nice option to get their hands on something normally unattainable, fills a need
You can get a Chinese tourbillon for around $260. But the quality isn't great. This I'd hope would have much better quality than the Chinese ones. I wouldn't consider this Costco version of a tourbillon. It may be mostly machine made but so is Rolex.
The case is 43mm correct? Do you know what the lug to lug is? I feel this is out of my size range on my skinny wrist. The ladies piece they made was 40mm and that seems like a great size lol.
I may have missed it but what material is the balance spring made from? If it’s not something a-magnetic then I wouldn’t really want to put my phone anywhere near it for the whole NFC thing. Hopefully they’ve thought that bit through though.
Today is very easy to build watches with CMC machinery but it's very hard to put a brain tru your hands in reality. Kind regards A simple driver....van driver 🔬⌚️
I love this, the skeletonisation really adds a lot of depth to the movement.
Really nicely done

Where are you live ? I haven’t received mine and no reply when I sent email to ask for it.

What an interesting video, yes it's one I would love to see. Keep well, keep safe and find some time for fun.

Beau projet. Le titane est un très beau matériau.
On adore le titane!!!

New sub here from England. Fascinating stuff, i can't stop watching your videos 🇬🇧👍
CONGRATULATIONS GREAT IDEA 👏👏👏

Thanks for sharing your opinion and i sincerely think that you would be fine with it, it’s classical watchmaking in terms of technique
@@watchestv-com thanks I'll take that into consideration I really like these. I have one of their cheaper models and really like it.
Amazing what he is doing, I own a Chapter One along with some other very expensive watches but the Baillod is one of the most satisfying.
Same here... and funny I've gotten almost zero compliments on my expensive watches but my Chapter 1 has gotten quite a few compliments.
Nice, the more "affordable" tourbillon the better. After Horage last year and now this one, good job to them.
Amazing video 👏👏👏
Extraordinary
Quite something and slight game changer ;)
Hallo Marc! Das ist eine wunderschöne Uhr, gefällt mir sehr gut.
Awesome !
Superb video, superb

I agree, nothing wrong with Chinese tourbillons but if I’m paying 5k I expect it to be superior to a Chinese tourbillon

Have these started shipping to buyers yet?
Yes, just started 👍
@@watchestv-com awesome, I'm looking forward to seeing owners videos.

Looks very cool to me. Quality seems very high for the price.
Is very sad but its not more espectacular than a 1000usd Chinese TOURBILLON
Very impressed by the Dalek watchmaker, buy this watch or be exterminated.......Seriously though, a hugely impressive project.
Many thanks and happy you liked it
Take my money!!!
