Automatic Tourbillon HZ3C00 25 jewels. Curved sapphire with AR. Deep dish dial. Screw down crown and wr200m. Debuts in August/September

If you look at both sizes it appears the same size hands are being used on both the 42 and 48mm. IMHO that is a mistake taking that shortcut if they indeed do it. Almost 6mm of all dial is a big difference to be using the same hands. If the situation was reversed and they used longer hands with the 42mm they might not even work being too long hitting the chapter ring. Using the smaller hands with both avoids that issue. The look fine on the 42mm, but do appear too short on something larger.

First time posting: Good Lord those Invicta's are hideous!

I was thinking about purchasing this Aragon tourbillon, but I just purchased a Christopher Ward GMT so I think I'll wait because of the price. I may pickup that Meteorite EVO. I have the Dive Master 4 Meteorite with the Miyota 9015 in it and I love that watch!

It is tempting. At least this one has a sapphire crystal on it. Not a huge fan of the screw down crown though.

Still a bit higher price than I want. Though expected something around that $600-$700 area when he first announced this would be coming soon.

I don't have a tourby yet. Usually when they get to a certain price point, I'd much rather just get another more established brand of watch or movement. Maybe one of these days I'll succumb and get one of these eventually.

I would get the 42mm myself. Still, it bugs me when Wing boast about designing trinkets for over thirty years. Does he have a blind spot when it comes to hand length? Is using the same length hands with multiple size cases to cut corners and save money? Which in my mind makes no sense saving cents for the overall price of the one component. Regardless if a trinket cost $50.00 or $5,000 the hands should fit the case size.

I tried to see how many were left of the 50 limited editions per execution, but wing has the website set up where you can't put more than 10 in your cart😆

Nice looking tourbillon! From what I can tell it is a Hangzhou tourbillon movement. Hangzhou makes fine movements.

We used to sell those tourbillon movements so I better do :). Stopped selling those are margins are really low and if one or two customers returned it would end up loosing money. Tourbillon movements are very expensive and hard to service but for sure look nice. My husband has one with a Shanghai Tourbillon movement that he purchased from http://www.perpetual-watch.com . Alex, owner of Perpetual is a nice guy.

On the way. Just wanted one tourbillon in the collection and he's not using that Peacock movement, so I went for it. A little concerned about the thickness, but we'll cross that bridge once it arrives. I felt the movement had a little more pop against the red. 👍SwH95Fq (1).jpgWpEHj4S.jpg
