Received my order a couple of days ago. Loving it so far. Huge thanks to the rep community for all the information about who makes the best reps for various models and the trusted dealers. I chose to go with Andiot. Since it was a BVF it took 10 weeks as there was reportedly a shortage of movements. I was offered an alternative factory but decided to wait since all info indicated that BVF was best for this model. Price paid was $435 including shipping. It came with a leather strap as well just like gen. Wrist roll in comments.

One of the first watches I bought when I got into this addiction. It’s a regular on my wrist and the solar powered, mechanical quartz movement is awesome.

This is one of my least expensive watch purchases and is one of my favorite watches across my collection spanning IWC, Longines, Seiko and more. There is a connection you form when you have to wind the watch to get it going and set the time after it sits for a few days.

#1 in my collection. This is the 42mm version which is a size I usually gravitate to. When I put this on today it was only 2 seconds off from when I wore it last 6 days ago. It lives on a winder since I don’t want to have to set it every time I put it on.

Farasute Heritage Ref 5302A
Hand winding mechanical watch
I loved the vintage inspired looks and am impressed by the quality I have seen. This is one I am going to really enjoy wearing.

This is my first regulator watch and brings some more color to my collection. The dial has a beautiful texture and the overall design has FP Journe vibes. The strap was very stiff at first but is nicely broken in now. I am enjoying this watch a lot and it is definitely a great addition to my humble collection. The price was very accessible as well. Dial is 40mm and lug to lug is 46.

I found this beauty on eBay from a Japanese dealer. The watch wears big but fits me great. I love that it has a chronograph, perpetual calendar, moonphase, and minute repeater making it a grand complication. I find the dial exquisite and I have yet to see anything quite like it.
