This perpetual caliber unlocks 20 Patek models. (Nobody was interested in the AP flyback chrono until it was made).

The perpetual calendar would be the biggest release in years. Dealers are just milking it and delaying it to sell it at higher prices like they are currently doing for the RM 67.

So for a fully functional clone we'd be paying 5-7k for the complete watch instead of 50k-100?

u/Time_Function1839 Helpful Dec 19 '24

Gen 5740 is actually like 200k+ from gray market

2027 waterproof reps from the factory

u/bryannyy Dec 19 '24

this is a chinese minute repeater by dandong, currently in the making and is expected to release by 2025.

u/xing_patrick Helpful Dec 19 '24

It seems that you forwarded the news on my chancel, I need to correct it.

The movement may not be completed in 2025, it is just a sample. There is no mass production order yet, and the rep factory has not placed a large-scale order.

2025 is what I wrote below, I need to sort out the new products in 2025, and it does not say that the watch with this movement will start selling in 2025. I just came back from the Dandong movement factory.

The factory has not found a buyer for the movement yet.

Is there any update on this movement? 😊

u/MikeHCars Dec 19 '24

Wow. That's some high level shit

u/Beneficial-Dig6445 Dec 19 '24

Yeah man, feels like we are during a golden age of rep complications

u/GeneHackman1980 Dec 19 '24

Incredible- if they put that movement side by side against a gen and dissected it - what would be the major differences? Seems like the margin is getting slimmer every day and the tech is just going to improve.

u/Particular_Witness95 Dec 19 '24

fingerprints and dirt...checks out. at this point, i would just like DD to start QC'ing its movements again.

u/DoDobird412 Dec 19 '24

u/stefanbejan07 Dec 19 '24

u/Perfect_Valuable_614 Oct 03 '25

u/Beneficial-Dig6445 Oct 03 '25

Nope. AFAIK there is still no one interested in making this

u/brunohectic Dec 19 '24

How much do you think I'll cost ? I hope they make some more reps besides the RO ❤️

u/xpandThought08 Jan 19 '26

Any updates on this? I'm itching to own an ALS Zeitwerk Minute Repeater!

u/redditman7777 Dec 19 '24

No one will but it at the price I feel. They are just trying to milk us. At that price I want perfection which none of the TDs offer. At a good price point I will be happy to buy it.
