Key Points from the Discussion
- The Vanguart Orb Flying Tourbillon, while visually impressive, enters a competitive price segment where collectors often seek established independents like Voutilainen, Gauthier, or MB&F, or highly complicated pieces from brands such as JLC.
- The design of the Vanguart Orb is captivating, and its automatic winding mechanism raises questions about the rotor's placement, suggesting it might be hidden within the case. The watch is seen as a potential competitor to brands like Richard Mille.
- For additional context and details on the Vanguart Orb, a previous WatchProSite article from Dubai Watch Week featuring the Vanguart Black Hole Tourbillon provides relevant background.
