Two long awaited watches have been just unveiled...

I've waited them for a long time and here they come !

The 1 Hz from the Grönefeld Brothers (dead second watch). The whole watch was built around this dead second complication: design, movement... you will notice the crown menu on the right: you press the crow and you choose between the W(ind) mode or the S(et) mode.

I love the layout of the movement:

And the Tuscar from the McGonible Brothers:

This intruiging watch witout dial (the movement IS the dial) features an aggressive balance bridge... I love it ! Of course, you can compare them but the Tuscar makes me think a bit about the Double Tourbillon Technique from Greubel&Forsey.

2 x 2 brothers, 2 great watches I can wait to discover in the metal !

Two beautiful pieces that would look great in MY box. I'll keep dreaming, it's still free. Love both, from the inside to the outside. The Gronefeld is a cool looking watch, something different with a special flavor. I would go for the WG one. The less att...

Similar quantities also...

The Gronefeld comes in 12 pieces in white metal (named the 1912), but it is SS, not WG; there will be 20 in RG (named the 'Dune'). The Tuscar sees 10 pieces in WG (the 'One of Ten', all sold) and also an LE of 20 in RG. Personally, the dial on the SS Gron...

...but then again, it's not as if they have marketing divisions, sales divisions, engineering and design divisions, accountants, executives or a factory floor! Cheers, pplater.

I find the Tuscar particularly attractive... so nice...

In love with both of these watches since the very first announcements!

The Gronefeld's offer of a cool dead seconds watch (I dig the movement so much!) is mouthwatering! Especially in steel! You know the dead seconds is my favorite complication, so this watch was on my radar in a big way! What's not to love? As for the Tusca...

I did visit Bart & Tim the other day and took my camera with me

I am in a hurry so I will let my pictures do the talking ... not as nice as the Grönefeld stock photo's though. Edwin...

We must agree to differ, EHH...

... your shots are flawless!! Those are exquisite renderings of a very attractive watch, although (as said elsewhere) the SS seems much more cohesive than the RG. Bravo again - thank you for favouring us with those magnificent photos. Cheers, pplater.
