  • My new flying tourbillon from ebay

    Hi all,

    Really excited today cos finally my flying tourbillon has finally arrived. Waited for about a week for my watch to arrive from UK.

    The winding of the watch is really smooth. Very beautiful design...looks even better than the photos.

    See my pics

    Apologies for the poor pics! But for better photos, it's better to see it from the seller website -

        it's not expensive at all. it's using chinese movement, that's why.

        Currently monitoring the watch.

        was pleasantly surprised by the quality and bulid of the watch. wasnt expecting the watch to be so beautiful. No wonder the seller has a 100% postive feedback in ebay. Very responsive seller who took effort to ans all queries.

        Bought another PAM homage watch from him too. Will post pics soon!

            A Pam GMT Homage with blue sweeping sec hand ??? When r u receiving it cos mine is on the way too. Was trying to tell the Mods here abt the sterile Rolex Hommage which the Ebay seller is selling and can probably customise it for Sg-Roc's anniversary watch concept.

                  i have recieved it! Far better than all the marina militeria watches that i have seen, be it japanese movement or chinese movement. Guess what, this homage watch is using ETA movement. Swiss movement.

                  A tad expensive but i really think it's worthwhile

                  Will post pics soon!!

                    650 for a tourbillon is definitely not expensive.

                    The British Horological Society is releasing a batch of tourbillon watches and it's using the same movement, these watches are selling at 350 pounds.

                    http://www.bhi.co.uk/150Watch.html

                    Actually you can email to the seller directly and ask for a better price cos the seller can save on the commisson paid to ebay. That's if you trust the seller!

                        A bit exp but guess what, it's really worth it.

                        1) it's using a swiss movement from the famed ETA. Not some chinese or japanese movement. It really shows in the quality. If you compare this with those MM watches, you will see the difference!
                        2) Comes with one year warranty!
                        3) The cover is using sapphire crystal!
                        4) Come with really high quality croc strap...but i have to admit, it took me a while to figure how to attach the strap properly!
                        5) Here comes the pics

                        BTW, how much did you pay for it? I send email directly to the seller and was able to get a lower price and lower shipping costs as well. Potential buyers can consider doing so.

                          so far how's the time keeping? any deviation?
                          There is a very fine line between this "hobby" and "mental illness."

                          Look on the wife's face when VISA bill arrived, Priceless!!!!

                            Dude, I think I've paid like GPB19+ which is abit higher than what u have paid cos I bidded his Ebay Auction. Unlike your direct approach,I didn't want to try risking my $$$ on some dude who sells on Ebay. It's quite risky but I admire your style. Anyway It's one of a better looking Homage GMT to the Pam 63 with silver sweeping sec needle. I bought it for travelling use in future since it's equipped with a Sterile Dial.

                            Looks like we have the same taste and how much did u pay for yours MM GMT. I'll pose a wristshot mine when it arrives.

                              I think the Seller is running out of the MM GMT V2 as from what I heard from him thru' email. I think the response is pretty good for the MM GMT V2. Not sure if his stock will replenish soon... ...
