FDMN at Basel 2009

Apr 04, 2009,12:33 PM
 

It was a great pleasure for me to meet again Karsten.

Karsten came with a surprise: the caliber which will be used for the 2009 chronometric contest. But the contest is coming a bit too soon for Karsten who needs more time to adjust it.








The Tourbillon and the 3 hands watch. Except some changes in design (dial, case) for the final versions. The size of the balance wheel is impressive. Low frequency, large balance wheel, the will of FDMN is to produce very classic high-end calibers dedicated to chronometry.

The movements look nice but the logo on the dial ruins it for me

The logo should be simplier IMO. It shouldn't be one of the main attentions of the dial. Cheers, Anthony

I have a soft spot for this genre . . .
