what makes an Anonimo,or Ennebe in bronze worth $4000.-$8000.?..so what am I missing that makes it not worth $3000.homerthinks.gif
  the NautilusII-b is under $3000.,and could go less if the euro drops,but I don't see this watch lasting out the week before it is sold out....I can say that if you have ever seen the inside construction of a Kazimon,and the craftsmanship of a small batch watch made in a small watchmakers shop,made,and assembled 100% in Germany than you would know...I got mine,and will be extremely happy with it...everyone has opinions based on conjecture,and without any real hands on experience with a brand,I made mine knowing what it takes to build a Kazimon,and am not forcing this brand on anyone,although I have been praising the brand for the past 7 years since 1st meeting Kazim.

+1 on that. With the actual change on the NO.Krone the price is not that bad for me at all considering what it gives.
But as said, bronze don't give me a hard-on so I'll pass.

gents, i have just taken the last NII without so much as a second thought on the price/movement issue. i own a number of eta watches from small brands and i would have no hesitation in saying the Kazi workshop produce the finest quality pieces out there. this will sit alongside my Sinn U1(eta 2824) UTS 3000m(eta 2824) i think when it come to the likes of Kazim you need to think more in the world of Enzo and Micheal than the boutique brands of norm. i own and have owned several of the Boschett, Hexa, Ocean7, Helson and none have been a let down, the quality for price point is generally spot on although some do push things a little from time to time. these watches are produced in large numbers, often on foreign shore(doesnt bother me) and the price reflects this. Kazim produces very low volume, high grade material, labour intensive designed items which i for 1 cannot get enough off. i regreted losing my 1500 last year after a few months of admiring the detail and craftmanship of the design and build and if it was a choice between Kazims product or another Sinn, UTS, Anonimo or high end Seiko id be heading straight for Kazim every time. just me 2cents, not meant to inflame or annoy but i think if people handled 1 of his watches they could see it from another perspective. rather like me and my wee Hamilton i just got, couldnt see why people rated them so highly so i bought a preloved from TKNZ and after an hour of owning concluded that outwith Mido there are not many companies that can provide the same bang for buck watch.

cheers

I think D.W nailed the spot.
I've seen lot of bad comments about the price on the forums and they was mainly coming from the U.States.
Not meaning that there's low appreciation there at all, but since the $ is very low lately(and since some months actually) the conversion €/$ has pushed the price of this Nautilus II up overseas.
Still, I was surprised that nearly nobody enlightened the problem there: They was just acting like Kazim was going greedy.
Not nice at all I would say.
Coz they would have reacted differently if the conversion would have given them this very limited 100% German bronze piece for around 2300$ as it would have been back in time when the $ was strong.
This said, I close my chapter since I said it all for good.

different strokes for different folks.  where i would struggle to spend that kind of money on a kazimon (if it were a little less i would pull the trigger), i would buy a  uTs  bronze adventure, in a second (at what would probably be a much higher price point).  i just love the look of my adventure.
