Hi fellows,

Everything is in the title.

This watch is one of my collection dream, the price exploded within a 3 year range and much more difficult to find than before.

The Credor Locomotive designed by Gérald Genta is a renowned timepiece known for its distinctive design and complex mechanics. Gérald Genta, a legendary watch designer famous for creating iconic watches such as the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak and the Patek Philippe Nautilus, brought his unique touch to this exceptional piece under the Credor brand, Seiko’s high-end line. Design and Inspiration The Credor Locomotive showcases Genta’s flair for innovative and imaginative design. Drawing inspiration from the world of locomotives, the watch features an intricate and thematic design that captures the essence of a steam engine. The dial and case are meticulously crafted to resemble elements of a locomotive, highlighting Genta’s ability to merge artistic creativity with horological precision. As with many of Genta’s creations, the Credor Locomotive was produced in limited numbers, adding to its exclusivity and desirability among collectors.


The design is so amazing to my eyes that I don't understand why Seiko doesn't reuse it for a reedition...

If only a rep manufacturer replicated it, but that's less likely to happen than a dream haha.

...the rep makers don't have a decent grand Seiko, so a more obscure model like that I'm doubtful of.

I have no hope regarding that to be honest
I know...only possible is a DHgate shitter, but since it's vintage and obscure, even that is a long shot. Interesting piece though.
