Sylvain Pinaud vs Greubel Forsey
So, money being no object, which of these two watch lines would you go for? Sylvain Pinaud Origine vs Greubel Forsey Signature In my mind they are both superbly elegant watches, the finishing and detail on the GF seems more intricate. The names of the wat...
From the pictures G F.
But of course you would have to see both watches in real life. Especially on the wrist. What I personally like better about the GF: the composition of the dial and the better crown size in relation to the case.
I like the oblique design of the GF,
but prefer the lighter and warmer colors (gold bridge and hands, silver dial, brown strap) of the SP. So I would probably choose the SP. But this isn’t my type of watches and having seen and tried on the SP but not the GP, I may be a bit biased. Here are ...
Yes, I like it better with this white dial!
and would probably like it even more in rose gold. Very nice and the oblique design is really attractive.
One point that should be considered as well is
the stability of the company behind the watch. I am fairly certain that GF will still be around to service my S1 20 years from now. For SP, the risk is considerably higher that there’s noone to turn to (although of course I hope they will thrive and be a ...
Both designs
Sing to me, I love that kind of small offset dial and balance wheel on the front. I’ve got to say I’m not a fan of the back of the movement of the Pinaud, specifically the circular void. I assume it’s a nod to the missing balance wheel but I’d rather it w...
Both. The correct answer is BOTH.
GF if only one. Get both, you know, just to be sure.
Excellent! Added new strap and GF deployment this summer
The steel bezel seems to pick up new scratches everytime I look at it but I suppose it's like using a Ferrari as a daily, just need to enjoy the miles and ignore the paint chips. ...
So glad you're enjoying! What a picture!
I appreciate people who make a top notch watch their daily
The Origine is the one I chose
I met Sylvain a couple of times and admire what he did back then when he sold his house to start a workshop. It was a big gamble for which I'm glad it is now working out for him. He now has a few watchmakers working with him. My Origine will be delivered ...
Both are wonderful
But the signature 1 is a nearly perfect watch to me. I love everything about it. They trade for a very reasonable amount second hand by the way… would strongly consider going that route.
GF for me . Although the SP is beautiful that flat bridge is distracting me for some reason .
This special GF that belongs to a great collector. Love that MOP dial 👌🏻😘 ...
