8k ain't cheap, but given it's a tourbillion, it definitely is.

[@1967-l7h]

@@adityapattnaik1405 A lot tourbillions are priced at 100k+. Considering a lot of swiss made luxury watches are investments since they generally hold their value (not counting inflation) the price of a watch can some times be irrelevant if you have enough disposable income. 8.000 CHF isn't a bad price for a watch enthusiast wanting to own one of the most coveted types of complications in the industry.

[@finished6267]

This is IT! I've been mostly focused on vintage watches, as they are sometimes still somewhat affordable, and attainable, and there is value in vintage which is missing in modern watches; scarcity, and style. My goal has been to get a Rolex, either an Explorer or Oysterquartz, but for the money, THIS just makes more sense on so many levels. It's not "mass produced", the finishing is really world class, and the tourbillon takes it to a level unseen anywhere else in the market. Congrats!!!

[@knightsrooks4156]

Mechanically Beautiful

[@locutusdborg126]

One huge advantage to major brands is that it is easy (ok, maybe not easy) to get your watch looked at and sent for repair, using OEM parts. If you own a Ming or this brand and you live in Iowa and you want it fixed, good luck, because they will have a very small factory and an even smaller section dedicated to repairs. AND, older brands like Patek, Rolex, Omega, etc. have made their movements sturdier over the years so they are far more reliable than in the past. Newer indies may not produce such robust watches out of the gate.

[@HORAGE]

Both small and big brands have their advantages, however there are still small brands like us and a few others that are invested in going above and beyond to provide the level of service and reliability of the major brands you mention. The exception is not the rule, we wish it were however being the exception is incredibly challenging and the reason most simply would play Dark Souls as Watchfinder said in their video. As it pertains to most smaller brands and even to some medium to larger sized brands most outsource their product development and rely primarily on third party movement and agencies to bring their creation to light, this also goes with their service. In fact many do not even have the product enter their office or country where they are located, most are simply shipped factory direct. This is because the barrier to entry is extremely high and access to the minds and suppliers to help them achieve this are for the most part in Switzerland. A brand that is located elsewhere in the world reliant on an agency and movement supplier in Switzerland is much more at risk of underserving their customer base. Horage is in an interesting position in that we have our own engineering and watchmaking team and we have been engineering movements since 2008 with what we feel are some of the most talented minds with a deep understanding of industrial process management. Our location is in Biel/Bienne which is the same home of two of the brands you mention Rolex and Omega, they are both about 1 kilometre either side of us. Us like them rely on close partners within our town and surrounding area to bring our movements to life. In fact all parts aside from our silicon escapement that we engineer, but produce in Germany come from within a 35km radius of our town, even the big guys have to buy their silicon parts and try to snap up suppliers whenever possible. For 20 years now we have provided some of the biggest in the Swiss watch industry parts and project management to ensure their projects come to light. We have learned a lot about the pains of a big brand and also realized the disconnection most have from design to production and most importantly from brand to consumer. Sturdiness of movements is something you mention and this comes from time and industrialization processes like the brands have done which you mention. We too have been invested in industrializing manufacture processes to ensure quality product and service at all costs. Our engineers are watchmakers and that means the very person developing our movements is also de-risking them heavily over years of prototyping. Additionally when it comes to service those same persons are the ones servicing the watches which provides an even higher level of service than the big brands could offer. By being smaller we have many advantages as we can be far more agile and have a direct line between customer service and the very engineer that developed the movement. Customers are provided with a much more transparent inquiry, sales and service process then they would experience from the big groups. The world has changed a lot especially within the last year. Digital communication has helped expedite process for those that embrace them and bring their customers along for the ride. After all the customer is the only one that keeps a brands lights on, all others in a brands network rely on a brand to go above and beyond for their customer. We communicate very openly with our customer base and unlike many of the larger brands we have implemented live calls from our production and invite our customers in on calls to see just what might be going. If a watch requires service we have a few locations in the world now, however to ensure we provide the best we prefer that watches come to our facility in Biel, to do so we arrange courier pickup from the customers location and it ships directly to us, after service it is shipped via courier back. We have had very positive feedback on this and this is because our customer service is closing tied to production and watchmakers. There is a reason most are just discovering us now and that is because when most brands start budgets are allocated to marketing. We have had many ask us to spend more on marketing, but if we did that we would have to take resources from engineering, watchmaking, and ultimately de-risking of our production. Rather than do the hard stuff first the easiest, shortest and less costly road is to outsource and double down on marketing. This is completely ok, because after all watches are a hobby and the vast differences in this industry keep the fascination of our mechanical world alive, but at some point there should be a point smaller brands start thinking like a bigger brand and investing in their own infrastructure and IP to ensure they can provide long term support to their community. Most unfortunately over spend on marketing and continue to leave the innovation to 3rd parties. Our approach and why most are only discovering us more recently has been again due to our determination to focus on the hard stuff first. A deep understanding in industrial processes has helped us to ensure a stable movement supply, IP security and security in movement supply as an independent. By doing this we can come to market with a sound product, sound service and be able to stand on our own amongst the best of them. There was a lot to unpack there and you and anyone else is welcome to visit us in Biel or join in on any of our live calls from our facility to see just how we go about making watches. Thank you.

[@RexofCaledonia]

To be fair. It is my opinion that, the top 5 most desirable watches have little to do with their brands in regards to price, it is the market and buyers that are feeding this ridiculous mark-up carousel. And frankly, the carousel only affect those that can't afford the watches. The ultra wealthy are not particularly affect. In fact, it could be argued that this system keeps the circle tight and easier for them to enjoy the most revered watches.

[@atsylor5549]

@@RexofCaledonia I agree with you to a certain extent. It’s true the brands don’t set the prices but they do have a lot more control of whether they go up and down than endometrial else. They set the production amount. And they keep the prices high by intentionally limiting the amount of watches they produce each year. The only reason you have to get on a waiting list for a Rolex that hasn’t had any major changes in years is because they want it that way. They could easily increase the production on their oldest most popular models. But they don’t won’t to saturate the market and bring their value down

[@Neonregenesis]

Marketing, executive lavish salaries, boutiques rent, etc

[@andifelsl]

@@RexofCaledonia Yes indeed it does not affect the wealthiest. Luckily those people spend their money still on expensive stuff. Perhaps we should look at this phenomenon as something like redistribution of wealth without major government and tax involvement. 😉 For the ones who take enough time they will find a lot of very good watches out there. It is the group dynamics which is the problem, because it is more easy to follow what others believe is good and it is much harder to get down the rabbit hole and identify an unknown product or brand with much less reference as being perhaps equally as good in design and technicality. That's the art.

A low jewel count is a sign of good engineering. More jewels simply means there are more friction points by reducing friction points one can squeeze the maximum potential out of a movement.

@@HORAGE Thanks for the personal reply, you're not going to see that from Patek or AP anytime soon. That means something to me. I myself am trying to get to school and become a Watchmaker. After all humans invented Time, mastery of it is well worth dedicating ones life to

At 3:20 in u can see the blue coating coming off from engaging the other gear.. Just a lil tiny nit pick lol

[@andifelsl]

Hi Jennifer, what you see is the lubricant spreading over the teeth. This blue is the natural color of Silicon. I have explained this already in some other comments. For more questions don’t hesitate to ask me.

[@Panzerfaust9161]

For only 8 grand that’s one very beautiful timepiece. 90% Swiss is outstanding.

[@HORAGE]

Thank you very much!

[@mesteme]

Beautiful watch. Just wondering, do all silicon escapement components eventually tend to appear as if chipped? 3:17 I thought the point was to have greater strength and durability.

[@andifelsl]

In case you mean the tips of the anchor wheel having different color…, I would assume this comes from the oil. At another section you can see a little break out section. This should be the place where the wheel is held in the wafer and after breaking out it will form this shape. Silicon has very good tensile strength and is not so good on the compression stress side of things. This is why we had to come up with some special mounting solution to take out the compression strength from the part. We have broken a lot of parts in the past 12 years, but least of them were the ones made of silicon.

[@mesteme]

@@andifelsl it may be oil but if you look at 3:18 full screen HD going frame by frame (on the keyboard . to go forward and , backward) it appears as if it were chipped paint/enamel on the escape wheel teeth where they meet the anchor, but maybe it's the lighting, I don't know. I am not in the least qualified to analyse something like this, but after so many macro shots of movements I was surprised by this one on this beautiful watch.

[@andifelsl]

@@mesteme hard to say to be honest. Since they are samples, perhaps some stuff might have been sneaked in. I am pretty sure we have very few chipping problems. We did a lot of REM analysis and have very good results with this material.

This is truly one beautiful watch, I wouldn't even wear it, it would just be on display in the house and I would look at it everyday. awesome video, really makes one appreciate the "time" that goes into a piece like this,

[@cooliodiablo4571]

For 8 grand you’d have to be mega damn rich to wear it and risk scratching any part of that s.o.b.

[@robertgift]

Does the Tourbillohave any advantage over a typicabalance wheel watch? Or just for appearance? Well done video! Thank you.

[@neerajnongmaithem392]

Just appearance

simply WOW! incredible engineering. great story. desirable time piece. Im really digging this video. this channel, the host, the content: you guys inspire me to GO FOR IT! keep up the great work 👍🏽

Thanks for great video that discusses the various details of making a high end watch! Is there a book that discusses this, by any chance?!?

There are always some people who don’t get along with their own life. It is indeed an amazing story being told. Very well done and for a person like me who is involved into this since 12 years it is amazing to listen to it.

[@ronaldchapman2806]

An heroic project that is sadly well beyond my means. It sounds like insanity but I believe there is is method in their madness: The name Horage has now achieved legendary status.

[@b233332]

Wow this is even cheaper than the TAG's.

[@HORAGE]

Thank you!

[@vicever08]

@6:10, a dust particle on tourbillon arm. A lot of dust particles here and there can be seen under micro lens, some are inside the case.

[@HORAGE]

The watch sent was a sample and we do not do the same dust controls with sampling. Dust is the nemesis of skeletonized watches. This is a sample so there are a few particles there, but we have stringent controls in production. Come by and visit us sometime and meet with our watchmakers and engineers to see how they manage this.

[@tynchytemper9618]

@@HORAGE Can I come too?

[@xtrvette4412]

Somehow I want one so bad right now! This watch is a game changer! Just a suggestion, it would be nice to see a closed dial version and the Tourbillon as the star of the show. I think the open dial takes away from the It. But I still like it. Phenomenal work!

[@andifelsl]

Let’s see what the future will bring 😉

[@jasont4847]

Great video! I'd personally like to see more vintage on the channel, but either way I really love your videos - many thanks!
