MB&F Robot Table Clock Named Sherman

Good lord. Money to burn.

As opposed to some overpriced franken? Different strokes for different folks.

 

[ZoomBoy]

I've ordered one. Will post some pics when I get it.

Please do. Looking forward to an honest review.

Yep. I'm amazed at how people spend their money on this forum. To each his own. However, I stand fast in my belief that those members who spend $3K, $4K or more on a franken are batshit crazy.

Surly people today are still not surprised that some people can and do spend $$ on stuff that's just unbelievable!! My friend just bought a coloring book!!! Yes that's not a typo!! A coloring book for adults and it cost $17k!! I told him we should just go outside and find the nearest homeless person and give them the cash. We would get more out of it!!

Amen to that. I’ll confess to my own wasteful idiosyncrasies too, though.

Is the coloring book of Smithsonian significance or is your friend a trust fund kid with not enough grey matter to spark a synapse?

Will it vanquish my enemies, laying waste to all that oppose me?

Then nah.

The quality is superb. I heard the ZF factor purchased the genuine article and built this rep 1:1. I don't know if the power reserve is truly 8 days, but definitely 7 days once fully wound with the included key. Imho definitely worth the purchase and very happy with it.

Hard as I try, I just can't see the attraction. But I'm pleased that the quality is good and people are happy with their purchase.

How's the finishing? I'm surprised they couldn't get the tank treads to operate as gen.

The finishing appears to be identical to the gen photos I have seen. The treads will rotate (albeit a little stiff). Not sure how this differs from the gen.

Sure thing. Here is a close photo of the clock's "brain".

Can you please place it next to a watch, maybe a PAM, so we can get a sense of it’s overall size and dimensions?

Here is another one of the torso.
