I ordered the automatic Breguet 5 Day Tourbillon from InTime. I have received the QC pictures. Since this is my first purchase, online, I'd like to post the QC pics here for the opinion of others. By the way, to my eye, they look good.
So, first question, is this acceptable? Second, I can't seem to upload the pictures. When I try to upload one, I get an exclamation point in a red circle next to the file, but I can't find an explanation. They are jpegs and no larger than other picture files I've seen on the board.

Thank you.

Purpose of QC pics is to ensure you got the right watch.
Refrain from posting them otherwise. Just ensure that the TD test the tourbillon before shipment and you will be fine

These cufflinks are always labeled as tourbillon movement. But looking at it, isn't it just an "open-heart" escapement? How does it look when wound and running? Any chance someone has a video of it?

These are the upgraded versions with transparent "mid cases" quite cool. Should be a bit cheaper if u searched around on aliexpress

Thanks for the video link Et4r17al.
It looks like they will move for a few seconds as you shake them.
I thought these could be wound and run like my Tateossian cufflinks. However, there is a huge price difference between them, so it makes sense that they couldn't be wound and run.

They actually have a version that can be wound. The main difference between your cufflinks and Chinese ones are the build Quality and material.
RT ones are made of rhodium while these are just stainless steel.
