    Default First American Tourbillon

    RGM in Pennsylvania is releasing the first American made tourubillon. Price around 100K depending on materials. The finish work on RGM watches is always spectacular and this proves no exception. The ample size of the tourbillon makes for great visibility from front, back case and a side window.

    Interesting but would one spend 300K$ on an American Ferrari even if it was as good or even better?

    haha, I wouldn't buy a 100K watch. But I like the rari analogy. Fortunately when they do build a mid engine corvette it won't be 300K so we won't have to worry about it being near the cost of a rari!

    Analogy goes both ways: just like I won't buy an Italian Harley

    It's only to exhibit the movement case.
