GF
Finishing for GF is indeed likely the best in the business, under the loupe it makes Patek seemed average, and RM a ripoff (RM has a lot of machine finishing).
And no I wasn't saying it's the end of tourbillon for GF, just saying it is unfortunately for either survival or more profits that they have to make concessions.
I would prefer seeing GF stay at the zenith and making only 300k+ watches, just like I would not want to see Ferrari start to make 100k sports cars.
But yes, I have read that GF had to reduce staffs, so I understand it had to be done.
[SiHH 2016] Greubel Forsey "Signature 1" and other novelties
Greubel Forsey has also unveiled some fresh pieces or version of existing watches. From past experience, though big sized, I love their case's shape. However, what is the most impressive element is that it is one of the best finishing available. Not only ...
Indeed, this started with the Vision
and now adding another non-tourbillon model with the same exceptionnal finishing level. Still not that affordable imho but much less expensive. Cheers, Mark

150,000 CHF
That\'s what I read somewhere on the net. A lot cheaper than previous GF! Personally I\'m disappointed that GF has to make these kinds of concessions, I wish they could stay making ultra high end tourbillon. Unfortunately in today\'s economy that\'s just ...
Yeah...
I saw that too. This kind of downmarket mass production and discounting is tragic. Why, it\'s virtually Walmart prices. At this rate they\'ll soon be as ubiquitous as hen\'s teeth... I don\'t mind at all that they move a bit downwards from the market of t...
It may be before taxes and for the Steel version
To be confirmed. If you allow me, I think that I quite disagree with you on your other remark. GF continues to make very special tourbillon watches (like the Vision 24 seconds or the models already available in the collection) and they even improved the D...

Ok, I see
indeed it would be nice they only make those 300K+ pieces but it seems that after the golden years of the last decade, it is not possible anymore. At least I'm glad they can keep on at quite a high "rate". Cheers, Mark
