Thus I know that like the Europeans, there must be omega seamaster planet ocean watch someone that is actually hand-assembling these movements. Accuracy is actually on par or a little bit off most European tourbillon movements with deviation of about 10-25 seconds a day. This might seem like a lot, but actually isn't that off from what you find else where. While Tourbillon movements seem to suggest they make watches more accurate, this isn't true. There are fun toys to watch, but functionally don't really do anything. Their main allure is their complexity, the novelty of watching them in action, and the emotion that is built around them. For a watch to be a COSC Chronometer, it can still be off by about 6 seconds a day, and there are very few COSC certified tourbillon watches out there. So I can freely say that this Chinese tourbillon movement isn't that far off from your "run of the mill" Swiss tourbillon movement.Another fun fact - Longio gives its tourbillon movements a lifetime warranty.
And while you ponder how nice it is that someone lovingly filed each gear and bridge in a panerai radiomir watch, you must be mindful of the price. It of course goes without saying that Swiss tourbillon watches cost many more times that of one from Longio.Longio was not the first Chinese watch brand to offer a tourbillon movement. I don't know who was, or how much lower or high in price they are. I do know that there are many out there with much lower quality tourbillon movements than what Longio offers. I am not an expert of Chinese tourbillon movements, so I can only comment on what I know compared to the Europeans. Even though Longio doesn't give its tourbillon and movement the same type of hand decoration, you still have actual people putting these panerai luminor watch together. This is just the type of thing that requires skill and hands-on treatment. A tourbillon is not easy to make or put together.
