Regulateurs

[Jeryltan]

Planning for another "higher end" purchase probably end of te year or early next year and am thinking regulateur. Really like the bell &ross ww2 regulateur but don,t see many people own it so i,m wondering does anyone have it here and how,s the quality? Also see louis erard but not much idea on this brand? Any feedback? Scared to go ad to see,scarly bth on the spot buy :p
Generally how,s the feedback on movement regulateurs? Example i,ve experience twice and been told those 2 hand eta auto with small secs there,s quite a common issue with the small seconds affect accuracy so i,ve avoided 2 hand eta auto with small secs ever since.

B&R is definitely not cheap... Remember, they have to be dependent on advertising as well as their own modifications on the movements to make their product popular and status as high as other high ends in the market.

LOUIS ERARD is the next possible affordable, but their status is about the same as RAYMOND WEIL...in the mid end.

The movement is actually a modified handwind 6498. What you saw on B&R is modified with the addition of the rotor. and the movement crown shifted to another side.
Meet LAMBERTI OROLOGIAI, the budget label from Italy, with products using movements from ETAs and those from China on their handwind chronos with watchmaking practice machiam like JUNKERS. SWISS movements mostly not decorated.

Translation with GOOGLE yield...

For lovers of mechanical watchmaking I present to you my new amazing and original assembly. A nice, solid stainless steel case with generous dimensions (diameter 48 mm without crown) with polished and satin finishes with bottom blocked by six screws. A magnificent Swiss mechanical movement with manual winding watch the soul. And 'the new ETA cal. 6498-1 with reading hours at REGULATOR. The basis of the movement is produced by long time, exactly since 1963 and has never undergone technical modifications, a sign of goodness engineering. Even today it is considered the most robust, reliable and secure mechanical movement with manual winding, still in production. The change that ETA has made will please the fans of minor complications. The reading time has been divided by imitating the very precise clocks thumb wheels as a control in the final stage in the factories of the watch. The beautiful finish of the plates and blued steel screws complete this precious and rare movement. A strict control in my laboratory exhaust and precision of gear will ensure you to be able to own a watch of great quality he bought it at a very affordable price

Compare to STEINHART, maybe LAMBERTI sourced movement volumes may not be comparable to what STEINHART can achieve... hence a higher price tag and production cost. But, the movement is a modified 6498, hence, not cheap as well. STEINHART producing REGULATORs? Let's hope so... but when? When the movements goes for the next round of appreciation in cost?

i like regulateur watches, owned a 75th ani Louis Erard regulateur myself.




Louis Erard models are quite reasonably priced imo, the newer regulateur with PR indicator is nice as well


Before I decided on a Louis, I was thinking of this Maurice Lacroix Regulateur. Date function is a plus point as most regulateurwatches doesn't comes with a Date function.

I saw that louis erard model as well, looks very interesting. It,s smth like skeleton right? Can share how much you paid and where you got from?
Where,s a good place to see louis erard? I only saw at peninsula that basement
corner shop. The only thing holdg me back on louis erard is the 40mm size, if it were 42mm or more i,d be sold. Lol.

Maurice lacroix will be abit exp right? I,m guessing atbout 5k? If so then i,d rather top up another little bit get the b&r ww2 regulateur :p

got my louis erard back in 05 or 06, $1.8k aft %, Watches of Switzerland(Paragon)

The former King Wah(now A-Cube) used to carry a wide range of L.E models but lately, there's not many variants there, not sure why.

Maybe you can try Watches of Switzerland in Vivo?

Maurice Lacroix, iirc, is about high 3k aft %

40mm is a good size for a dress watch imo, the L.E wears nicely on my 6" wrist.

WoS @ VIVO? Isn't that place was previously commented by fellow brudders that the staff there attitude CMI?
Try others maybe lah... WoS opening a new shop @ CitiSquare, which is around Mustafa area @ the end of this month. Most likely, the staff are trained to handle picky ahnehs from India who're much bargain hunters than our own SG indian brudders. I'm going there to SSRR.

King Wah(now A-Cube) seems to have lost their authorized retail dealership since the last time they moving out. And LOUIS ERARD had taken back some models, leaving very few stocks with A-Cube...
