I agree that many of these do not look like real tourbillon watches, though some of them do look real. He does say "simulated tourbillon" a couple times, but other times, he is calling a watch a "tourbillon" that simply looks like it has an "open-heart" or skeletonized movement. And yes, I know I said "he", but that this is likely a computer generated voice in the video. In a real tourbillon, the entire balance wheel/escapement assembly rotates while the watch is running. Also, please don't call a sun/moon or day/night indicator a "moon phase" function. On some of these watches, you can clearly see that this display shows a sun at some points, and a simple half-moon at others, making it a sun/moon display where it shows a sun in the daytime, and a moon at night, not a genuine moon phase function that gradually moves a graphic of the moon over the course of about 29.5 days to show the actual phase of the moon, after initially setting it properly.
@@MandyLionRock just moving my first steps in this beautiful world but I think I have understood what a tourbillon is. All of those seems to me tourbillon escapements.
@@FilippoSolari It is a fascinating world isn't it? Some of these watches aren't tourbillons... all mechanical watches have an escapement wheel swinging back and forth... but a real tourbillon has that wheel inside of a spinning mechanism. So... unless you see the escapement wheel going back and forth AND spinning then it is not a tourbillon. I hope this helps?
In my opinion the tourbillion is no better in timekeeping than a $10 quartz watch if timekeeping is what is needed. My $8 quartz has kept accurate time for 15 + years and looks smart. If your wealthy then sure it is nice to own a nice piece of engineering.
At first, the Era Prometheus stumbled upon my search, then came Agelocer, then Ba111od, and finally the Waldhoff Ultramatic. Now I'm just completely torn as to which tourb to get 😂.
Yeah only open heart mechanicals. An actual turbion will not swing back-and-forth. Like a open heart mechanical watch does. A true turbion actually acts like a second hand.
cfratmanship..............quality control........ reaserch & development.... the will to do better........ peroid.!!!!...... no matter where it is made.......... period !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have an Aesop, it's always on a stop. I have to shake it up to keep it working. I just opened it up, not working. It's brand new from an elegant box with everything in it. Don't work. I don't know what to do.
What a lot of bollocks .. half of those watches are not even Tourbillons just cheap Chinese open heart watches that only resemble a Tourbillon. I have the Lobinni and at under £100 it most certainly is not a Tourbillon.
The whole point of tourbillon is to counter gravity (when the watch is worn at different angles), and hence more accurate. Tourbillon is suppose to be the pinnacle of human achievement in mechanical endeavour. Unfortunately, most tourbillon watches are LESS accurate than non-tourbillon ones, hence what's the point for all the complication (and cost)? Rolex now offers watches accurate to +/- 2 sec/day, and Omega offers +/- 1sec/day. I think only PP offeres tourbillons that are more accurate than their non-tourbillon watches, but at what cost, and they are still not as accurate as a Rolex or Omega. (OK, I own Grand Seiko's, and they are also not as accurate as Rolex or Omega, but that's another story.)
It's about a luxury timepiece that has beautiful engineering and looks mesmerizing. If time, accurate to the dot was the priority, everyone would be rocking a quartz watch. Or even better yet, checking time on their geo synchronised devices like smartphones, smartwatches which people always seem to have on their hands anyway.
You have the link to the article in the video's description, where you'll find links to every single watch. But it's easier to complain than to do us a favor and visit the website.
Not sure if this RUclips channel knows what a tourbillon is exactly
230 usd for a quality flying tourbillion now. Great deal.
Affordable price means how much?
Thanks China. wonderful progress, variety and
elegance.
For real china do awesome watches

This channel doesn't even have a human narrator. Everything about it is as cheap as the watches in this video.

I read an article before this with the same list and same words used lol

Just my personal opinion but I got the waldhoff and fell in love. Great build quality and customer service. Have both the quantum and ultramatic 2.
I own a sturling tourbillon, rose gold. To me it was a good buy.
Is there any reliability issue?
How long have you had this watch?
When i saw the sturling being the first watch, i knew what youtuber i should avoid instantly
600$ tourbillon might be the real thing… Swiss cheapest tourbillon 8k
No, cheapest Swiss tourbillon is around $5000
True, Ba111od has one made by the same man who supplied Aventi with their recent tourbillion too.
which swiss brand ?
@@BabyJesus66 what is it
Next time Please include the Prices.
The fonts on the Akribos XXIV is so terrible. Good that they did not consider using Comic Sans though.
Any comment on these brand>>> Ralph Christian, Haofa Tourbillion seems like their selling price not cheap~
The Lorus tourbillon magically turned into their submariner homage dive watch for a moment
The new vacuum and pressure act as smart watch antenna and it hard to detect
Some of these watches don't look like true flying tourbillon, it would have helped if we could see the tourbillon moving ,
Yeah only open heart mechanicals. An actual turbion will not swing back-and-forth. Like a open heart mechanical watch does. A true turbion actually acts like a second hand.
Skips prices… skip video
When you say super clone, it better be Swiss made. Only gussl can achieve this level of perfection.
Calling Vacheron and IWC 'affordable' something must be wrong with your mind.
I asked a dealer how precise these Chinese Tourbillions are - He said +- 20s / day - not good enough in my opinion

It's tourbillon, not tourbion

Mate you have no idea what one even is. Good job...
Can you buy all 15 for me please sir?
Wonderful voice

try GIV-T09 or AESOP ZWW. Sea-Gull if you have more budget.
You are absolutely right. I own just one real turbillon watch, along with several open heart and skeleton watches. So, I know what I'm talking about.
grankseiko tourbillion is so sick
You knew when they did it, it was going to brilliant!!! I’ll sell my house, you sell your house and we’ll split it, but I get it Saturday night!
Nope seiko has no tourbillon
@@gerardoresendiz6731 grandcomplication*
Half of them aren’t tourbillon lol
Better get Tissot
Oh yes 1500 USD is a very affordable one
swiss tourbillions are much much more
That's very cheap compared to most tourbillon watches
it is affordable, just save
Love the Mee o tah

GS blows Omega and Rolex out of the water
@@NathanChisholm041 Yeah, well, you know, that's just like, your opinion man
COSC certified Omega is 0- +4
Rolex is +/- 2

Why do you find the need to tell us what we already know.....get to your point.
Rest in the good news 💐🌑👍 Okay bye
oh it's a cash cow channel
No links to anything whats the point? 😑

@@WatchesYouAfford links yes to America amazon only.
@@billybillson2134 true...
This is really quality of highest level
Barf
So ... basically, all those affordable Tourbillon, are Chinese made. : )
This video is full of images that aren't tourbillon.
👎MISINFORMATION!
A THINLY DISGUISED COMERCIAL.
DISGRACEFUL .
Why would you buy a Fiat masked as a Ferrari? Make money and buy a Jaeger LaCoultre Tourbillon.
That’s the goal…but while l climb up where’s that $500 one🤣🤣
I would rather buy a house first.
Recently.... eeeh, the Chinese tourbillons can be bought for $1,000 since 20 years back, they are fully functional
SPAM!
DO NOT RECOMMEND AND REPORT. 👎
Yikes
Cheap shit, buy once cry once.
you lost me at Made in China garbage
CHINA !
Unscrupulous RUclipsr.
