As a mechanical engineer I find both the history and the application of this technology astonishing. In a world where everything is so disposable its good to see a tourbillon made more affordable for us what fans. Thank you for the review Aviv!
I bought an AGELOCER Turbillon. It took 28 days to arrive and when it did it was running several hours a day fast. I checked and it's not magnetized. I sent their customer service and video of it and they replied with this Thank you for providing your order number and the video. Based on our initial assessment, there doesn't appear to be a significant quality issue with the watch. If there's a large time discrepancy, it may be due to the watch being impacted during transport, which could have displaced the balance spring speed regulator clamp. "We recommend taking it to a local watch repair shop for calibration. We can cover $20-$30 of the repair costs as compensation. Please let us know how you would like to proceed!" Thing is, I don't have a local watchmaker and I can't find anyone who will even look at a Turbillon. They said it could send it back for repair but that would cost $169. So it just sits on my table.
Part of the charm of the tourbion is the loud tick! If you pay 100k it will be heard across a small room. The title of the video appears to be clickbait. These are extremely good value and well made. I have a Moser and Cie homage by rhem (large moon) and I'm extremely happy with it. In my opinion the Chinese are going to be a major force of the watch industry in the future. Whether it is company like Age Locer producing high quality complications or SanMartin (my bb36 homage is never off my wrist) they have something for everyone. Thanks for the review of this.
I can't comprehend how come they are able to make those awesome beautiful watches and come up with those awful names, fk you just separated the thing and it sounds 50 times better, not that age locer make any sense but still... WHY do they settle those ramdon names!? they could literally hire any western for a price of a drink an afternoon or so and come up with at least 100 brand or model names smh
9:30 I totally agree, I think if they went with something sublte, handwriting style parhaps with a little itallics action and a font colour with a tinge of gold that watch would look classier. The bold letters detract from the dial and the sceleton movement. For me it's an eyesore.
Aviv, Great review, as usual. I think if I had a chance to change the design a bit, I would remove the overbearing name on the dial, and would put their logo in very fine gold under the crystal, on the "naked" part of the dial , then I would add a fine gold line along the middle of the hands. Voilà, a perfect watch (although the movement is a gamble) ? Absolutely lovely watch. :-) Good stuff, thank you 🙂 . Cheers !!! Life is Good ! 🤙🤙 🤙 .
Thumbs up. I agree about the printed name on the dial. Everything about the watch was well done, except that plain Arial font is like serving a filet mignon steak with potato chips.
G'evening & nice video Aviv ☕☕☕ 😇 . I think it was only a year or so ago when they put out the first sub $400 tourbillon from China (Aesop I think) that caught everyone's attention. It's just my .02¢ but if I remember right I don't think those sub $400 tourbillons sold very well. I wonder if they're doing a bit of brand recycling like we've seen them do before. I wonder if they took the Aesop tourbillon or maybe a V.2 of it, gave it a skeletonized dial, did a little better finishing on it and re-branded it before doubling the price 🤔 .
In this internet age, i can use a mobile phone or smart watch to track time, the only reason i need a tourbillon is to actually marvel its mechanical movement that's all, whereas a 1.5ms bit error rate... i do not think i will care.
I just worry the watch you were sent is a"press" version with maybe better finishing. From watching a bunch of reviews the ones people buy seem to be not as clean.
@@MyAffordableWatchCollection maybe have a friend order one from the website? Do some sleuthing, they seem to be trying but it's so hard to know with Chinese production.
Perfect choice of strap Sir ❤ Font looks cheap in finish Its by far my cheapest watch ,still i get the most reactions No patek guy knows an Agelocer😉 Very nice review😮
Not normally a skeleton fan, but could lose a lot of time staring at the movement, not convinced that I would drop this amount on the watch, but that is more about me, not a fault of the watch, excellent work fella.
The app is usually on point when it comes to the accuracy (as I was even told by a certain Swiss watchmaker). I guess that for the beat error a time grapher would be preferred.
I bought one of the Agelocer 9001A1 Tourbillon early November 2024, it took a 3weeks for them to send me the watch, then the power reserve only worked for a couple of days, then the watch stopped around 24h - then the watch wouldn't start unless you kick it (gently) with your finger - I reached Agelocer and they told me to send them a video to prove my point (that I did), then they asked me to send the watch back to them at my own expenses (no return coupon) and finally instead of fixing or replacing the faulty watch - they just reimbursed me (Thanks Paypal) without asking if this is what I wanted (and withoiut reimbursing the return fee I paid). My advice: stay away from that chinese brand - They do not kown what is good customer service so if your watch have a problem you're on you own ;-(
Hallo Aviv, ein sehr schönes Video und eine sehr schöne Uhr. Aber man kann die Zeiger ja kaum erkennen, die müssten weiß sein, dann würde ich eine kaufen, aber so muss man ja raten wie spät es ist. Gruß aus Köln und danke für deine Videos Gruß Reinald Ups! Hab grade die Homepage besucht und gesehen, dass es sie auch mit hellen Zeigern gibt!
If they changed the name from 'agelocer' to 'Phillipe Lacroix' or some other fancy name I would definitely buy it but I can't buy something called 'ageloser'
Nice watch. Wish the hands were a bit more readable using some contrast. They should actually make a version that uses traditional Chinese characters with a name on the watch which has some meaning to time and Chinese culture. Be proud of what they are selling and where it is made.
Ifya go to their site now they let U customise face,strap, bezel & hands. I chose the 🌈 jewel inside edge with white hands on black skeleton. Three yr warranty so all good, after that just don't ding it on a car door getting out lol
You get what you pay for. It's a working tourbillon at a price lower than most of those shitty Hamilton chronographs with those ungodly thick and fragile movements.

I think it is astonishing. It somehow is very clean and simple. And it also has a lot details and fun things to watch. Also 40 mm is perfect size.

Agreed if the changed the logo I'd buy this. It makes it look like a Chinese brand the way it is at the moment
Same here. I would buy the watch we a better logo. 😢
Absolutely stunning. Love it and keep up the reviews.

Then go for Jinlery. Even better deisgns and no overpresenting logo.

my first thought was if that could be removed
I love looking at the mechanics of different movements, this one is great!
My wife was trying to understand why I was staring at a watch so closely 😂

Unfortunately, the model you have isn't available anymore. The skeleton in yours is a silver color with black hands. That is what I want.
My friend bought the same, the quality of material is very pour. They was broken after the small shake in one month!
Not a surprise. Chinese made products have very bad reputation , but cheap fools are keep buying Chinese made junk …
Great review once again
Thank you sir 😊
Interesting, thank for sharing. Not sure I like such a chunky watch but would like a wall or mantle tourbillon, but can't fine one!
I'm afraid this doesn't exist...
I just worry the watch you were sent is a"press" version with maybe better finishing. From watching a bunch of reviews the ones people buy seem to be not as clean.

The beat error may be wrong. I have an NH34 that reads 1.4 on my phone but .04 on my timegrapher.
The app is usually on point when it comes to the accuracy (as I was even told by a certain Swiss watchmaker). I guess that for the beat error a time grapher would be preferred.

I think it's a stunning watch. I'll consider it seriously.
it seems the rose gold one had best legibility.
If only the have a logo type brand rather than word salad on the most boring font ever on 12 o clock
What's the lug to lug on this?

Ups! Hab grade die Homepage besucht und gesehen, dass es sie auch mit hellen Zeigern gibt!
I had to use Google Translate for this one 😅
It's actually easier to read the time than it shows on camera.
is tourbillon selfwinding or handwinding or both. Please reply me. Thanks
Handwinding
No problem, you can wear it on the hand with good accuracy. Don’t put it on the other hand, the one with the beat error!
If they changed the name from 'agelocer' to 'Phillipe Lacroix' or some other fancy name I would definitely buy it but I can't buy something called 'ageloser'
🤣🤣🤣
"Maurice Lacroix" is the right brand name.
The agelocer branding absolutely ruins the watch, a real shame, because its otherwise really beautiful considering the price.
Is there such a thing as a tourbillon with automatic winding?
Maybe in Swiss High Horology (Audemars-Piguet, Breguet, Patek-Philippe), I don't know.
Nice watch. Wish the hands were a bit more readable using some contrast. They should actually make a version that uses traditional Chinese characters with a name on the watch which has some meaning to time and Chinese culture. Be proud of what they are selling and where it is made.

But I can’t see the time😢😢😢
This wacth are art😅

You said this was a true tourbillion. Are there watches that have fake or some other type of tourbillion?
Yes. Many brand refer to open heart watches (ones where you can see the balance wheel through the dial) as tourbillons.
@@MyAffordableWatchCollection wow. Those aren’t tourbillons at all.
see that China can make tourbillon under $1000 it is so ridiculous that Swiss brands charge 100 times for a tourbillon watch =)))
Child labor?
@@teleguy5699 that's a good joke
Poor working conditions, pay and quality control
Love it one day be owning
no seconds pointer? :(
The Tourbillion itself is your " Second Counter! ".... It makes " 1 rotation! " every 60 seconds!!
@@James71717 Right !. Some other brands put a seconds hand on the tourbillon.
I don't understand why these companies shoot themselves in the feet by naming themselves something absolutely absurd.
Right? Why not call it Lynx,
Phoenix, Pegasus or Sphinx?
Maybe they want to avoid stealing existing names, so they invent new ones which mean nothing...
About the font - 💯
this is very interesting.
beautiful
That logo is a crime
The only con of this watch is the "Acelocer" branding...They should make it a bit more unique cuz it looks really cheap.
The design is good but dislike the brand name and its font on the top. It rhymes with "age loser"
The only fault with this is the name/logo if they changed this it's would be perfect for the money
It is said that the people who created it are not Chinese, but they are from Europe. It's just a Chinese branded brand😅
у китайцев названия их часов с надписями на латинском алфавите - нелепые. должна быть опция - без лейблов, или на китайском.
i prefer wandering hour.
You get what you pay for. It's a working tourbillon at a price lower than most of those shitty Hamilton chronographs with those ungodly thick and fragile movements.

@@rajuncajun2818 That's sad to hear 😓

beautiful, but that name...
This is the cheapest tourbbiloin watch available right now but I honestly still can't afford it. What a mesmerizing watch.
It's not. Merkur and Aesop Are cheaper. You can get Merkur for around $300.
