So far I have seen only lower end copies of this beauty but one of my sources just announced that in 2019 we will have a real flywheel tourbillon powered Vanguard V45. This watch is beautiful, hopefully the chinese will do a good job. We all know how difficult is to do a good skeleton replica because all the details are easilly spotted. The last RD Excalibur skeleton tourbillon is a prove that they actually can make a good replica (even with the small acceptable flaws), hope this one will turn good in the end..

genuine for reference :

Thanks for your insight!

I assume the pictures of the movement are from the rep as the rep uses a YG balance wheel instead of the PVD coated one from the first picture.

Anyways - it looks promising even though i‘m not that much into FM.

There is hope for some crazy RM‘s in the future hehe.

thanks again mate ;)

I'm all over it if they release something with a half decent looking movement! Hopefully the Vanguard Krypton comes back too, as I was just about the pull the trigger when GF got raided.

Nice release..
I am getting one if they did good job

I hope this comes with a decorated or coated balance. Unlike BR tourbillon which turn to be yellow instead of silver.

Btw, I don't know if the factory will pvd the black on the balance wheel and make flat screws on final production, that will be perfect if they do that look more like gen.

A smaller size would be best. Check out this video.

Also if any people who know what factory make it and know them. Please tell them fix the tourbillion window ring , it's too small and look it cover all tourbillion cage. Don't like that.
