FM Grand Central Tourbillon

[CF_Stan]

This just popped up on biao. It looks to be repped pretty well. There’s a few minor faults I can see but overall I think it looks good. Central Tourbillon is amazing .
Gen length is almost 59mm so probably too long for my wrist.
@Dr Fun Socks what do you think, I know your a tourby hunter.

Pretty cool to be fair i dont think ive see a rep of a central tourbillon before. Not super keen on all the silver behind the tourbillon, and i do like the balance wheels with weights on them over the plain ones. Nice piece though!

Is biao a dealer or just a market observer?

It's a non trusted dealer, if you like the watch just send a picture of it to your trusted dealer and they should be able to source it.

If you do pull the trigger please post up pictures and share your thoughts.

Really liked the look and am thinking to buy it locally. What are the slight faults you saw. To me it looks pretty close to gen. Thanks

What were the minor faults you caught. Tia

What were the minor faults you caught. Tia

Nothing major, the most notable things are the inner bezel on the rep looks a bit like a bar code compared to the gen. The bridges behind the tourbillion should be black.

It also looks like there is a circular pattern on the dial of the gen, which may be angled differently, you can see it where the circle ends about 3 quarters up on the 11, 12 & 1 numerals From the pictures it’s difficult to tell though.

None of these things would put me off, as mentioned before my wrist is too small to accommodate this. If you do pull the trigger, please share pictures and impressions.
