Hi all. Was trawling again. and found this..

http://www.ventura.ch/index.php/language/en/cat/c145_Home.html

So - is my favourite auto-digi back on sale again?? Maybe so!

Bugger! Now that means more I have to save for!

Anyways - I know that some of you here have Ventura LCDs and that O has a cracker Ti chrono - but what a great story ift hey come back literally from the dead. Does the German language option mean that they now come from Germany?

Enjoy - hope y'all like em as much as I do... my faves are the V-Tecs..

You trawl very well, mate! Seems to me like these are all keepers.....even the digitals. subtlelaugh.gif

Ventura is really known for good designs and somehow I get reminded about the Bauhaus movement that inspired the Nomos Tangente lines, and then Nomos' other variants.

I like the VM 11 lots. Reminds me of my own Tangente with a fresh milk dial.

Venturas have been popping up again and it appears that Lior/SWI Group who purchased the compnay via the bancruptcy auction has been cleared to begin operations again....there was a court case where the original owner tried to block the sale in order to regain ownership....use the 3T search engine and the original article should be there somewhere :)

...I have been collecting Ventura for years and hope the integrity of the brand will remain the same...they have always made a Awesome watch and at 1 time actually had more movements go to COSC cert than any other brand....this is 1 of the earlier  V-Techs. hand6.gif

Yeah was sad to hear it closed. But so glad they're back. I always wanted the bmw spark fx LE. Maybe we'll see more pop up these days.
good news.

Thanks.
Dave.
