I just got my QC pictures today from the TD for the VC tourbillon watch that I bought. Upon close examination I noticed that the balance wheel window is slightly different compared to the pictures on the website.
From QC:
From the site:
As you can see mine does not have a small second hand compared to the one from the site. I think mine is a different tourbillon movement, probably a Flying Man and not the Sea Gull but I am not that savvy to know the differences yet. And definitely not a deal breaker either as long as the watch keeps running well, though I would be happy to have a small second pointer or a hand that runs across the small dial. Looks like there is a tiny axle in the middle that is supposed to have some sort of the hand object as I saw it in other similar watches.
Question to the experts in tourbillon watches here - is that the same type of movement in my watch in terms of quality, grade, etc. as Sea Gull handwind one that is stated on the site?

That hublot is nice! I was looking into that on puretime. How do you like it? How does it compare to the Gen?
Thanks!!
that Hublot is a fantasy piece , the Gen is a minute repeater plus Tourbillon. But nonetheless one of my favourite watches.
This is a unique piece as well, theflyingdutchman can tell you more about its origins. The stock one from TDs come with silver markers .
It has a ceramic case with gold markers .
I replaced it with a gold crown and slap on a matt ceramic bezel plus bracelet.

None of the tourbies are super reps, but your getting a tourbillon for a fraction of the gen version!
IW5046 looks like will be out soon. It's rumors so will wait and see.
