Thanks a lot for your post. I really love this type of Tourbillon, very open with a large bridge... a bit "à la Claret".

But you need now to tell us more :

- what's the context of this tourbillon ?
- its features ?
- in which watch are we going to find it ?

And so on...

Thanks a lot !

Love your work!

Dear HARAJUKU, the movement is a dream, can you tell us more about the maker, Mr. Asaoka please ?
Where did he learn the trade, who has he worked with, where does he show his watches, etc. ?
Thank you very much for presenting this maker and his work here,
Don

Sorry...
Harajuku is the nickname of  Hajime Asaoka.
I aim  for  independent  watchmaker.

That is a beautiful movement. I like the size of the tourbillon parts, the carriage and bridge appear thick and solid. Do keep us updated on its progress.

and this fits the bill.  Would be interested in seeing the case and dial.  Otherwise, impressive.

The thickness of the bridges metal plates relative to the lenght of the parts.

It creates a strong, muscular look which is very unique. These thick metal plates are very reassuring for a customer who wants a movement that has less generic parts, may we have a price estimate of such a watch? No need to give the exact prices, but an indication of how much it will cost relative to a model of Patek in Japan.
