Fanastic update/review

Thanks for the nice update and review. I rarely see pics of omega tourbillon. It really a good detail pics you posted. Well, for anyone who drop by Singapore Changi Airport terminal 3, there is a tourbillon boutique there as well. It has almost the same setup/deco as the New York Boutique posted here but without the omega tourbillon as i last saw two years back. Cheers.

The JD pieces are very interesting in deed. THANK you! I have walked thru the one in South Coast Plaza but they didn't have the selection that you have seen in NY.

Thanks for the comprehensive report Jon

I just returned from Tokyo, where I visited the same group of Swatch Boutiques on the Ginza. They did not have the JD Tourbillion . . . I would love to have seen that pice. They did, however, have a couple of steller Breguet Minute Repeaters. Craig

Great photoessay, Jon!

Thanks for sharing photos from the Tourbillon boutique. There are some really intriguing pieces in your photoessay. In particular, it was nice to see the cocobolo JD. I'm familiar with cocobolo from its use in higher-end acoustic guitars. A good piece of ... 

Thanks...some incredible watches there

Thank you, Jon. Was about to go in that shop while ago, but I was in such a dirty sweaty T-shirts and not wearing one of my good ones, so I didn't Next time I go there, I will go in and stroll around. Again, thank you very much! Ken

Airports are "offshore".... MTF

And an awesome boutique it is too.

I must admit that, silly me, I didn't realise all the brands on display there were Swatch brands, and that the Tourbillon boutique itself is a Swatch-owned outfit. Well worth a look for anyone transiting through Changi. A bit of a hike if you are at a dif... 

Always a pleasure to see the tourbillon Central from Omega, and the GO tourbi, too.

 
 By: amanico : August 24th, 2009-07:50
God knows how I love these 2 pieces! Omega for the original location of the Tourbi, and these original hands, too which are a great complement to a beautifully made watch. G.O for its mesmerizing beauty. Yes, it is always nice to see them, and it is even ... 

Nice photos Jon!

Didn't get a chance to visit the Tourbillon boutique the last time I was in New York City. As its location on Wall Street is too far from 5th Avenue and Madison Avenue where there is a large concentration of shopping boutiques. But apparently, I missed vi... 

Thanks for the report Jon!

From your pictures of the NY Tourbillon Boutique, this Boutique has a much more "old-school" feel to it with the inclusion of the art pieces as well as the Tourbillon branded wallpaper. I don't recall the South Coast Plaza Boutique to have any of this Tou... 

Great post! Thanks.

Some very interesting pieces. Thanks for sharing. Love that power reserve Jaquet and the Glashutte Tourbillon. That central tourbillon Omega looks awesome. Vte
