Any idea if the balance wheel will ever be replicated?

To replicate the balance wheel they would have to replicate the entire movement, from what I know about zf they make great quality reps but are always using Chinese decorated movement(even though they did use a 3135 for the sub but they didn’t produce the movement themself) so my guess is no not with this model from zf

Yup, been discussing this issue with him already and he has a plan.
screwdrivers sourced, now its his turn :D

Would be interesting to know his view on the movement, the cause of the stutter etc... so far we have only been speculating on the what make that one beat, so that would be a great contribution to this topic if you can have more infos

to minimize stutter on your NH05 movement: The stuttering second hand is normally caused by lack of tension on the center seconds pinion, and can be sorted by bending the friction spring slightly.(given that the correct hand is used)

https://www.watchuseek.com/threads/f...tutter.298990/

This. With the heavier and longer hand of the RM, it’s still prone to come back stuttering a bit but the tightening of the friction spring should make a noticeable difference.
