'True' co-axial reps?

[fl0riz]

I see a lot of these"super clone" movements, but from what I can judge by pictures this is all because of the visual aspect.

Are there any true co-axial asian clones out there? So having a real coaxial escapement with (for some) 25,200 bph?

Nope, I do not think so

No.

Nope ... None ... !

Fortunately- NO!

Coaxial is just overkill and consider these:

- coaxial is not protected by patents anymore, for years
- so anyone can incorporate this in watch movements
- yet only Omega - “we’re different “ uses coaxial
- oiling of coaxial needs to be very precisely done
- there are 4 pallet fork stones instead of just two in regular solution
- assembly of coaxial is not easy task

...enough?

+1. We are lucky these superclones are not coaxial

Is it just a marketing stunt, then?

Partly, but there are some true advantages over traditional movements. One of them is less wear and tear and because of that longer service intervals.

Nope and as above that's a good thing. A cheap Chinese co-ax would be a bloody nightmare.

That's also true

They just can't replicate it.....

If Chinese can do Tourbillon - they can do coaxial, too. It just doesn’t make sense.

The servicing cost of that would be insane
