It's a beauty for sure, and will no doubt be extremely well made (as we know that Kazimon produces a top grade micro piece for sure), but I agree regarding the price...at $3K it does not have me reaching for my wallet. All that said, it is an extremely limited run at 10 (not clear to me if this is a limited edition meaning that no more will be produced in the future), and I expect that it will sell out of those 10 in no time flat. In my opinion, Kazim can charge whatever he thinks the market will pay for it...unfortunately, it does not appear to be priced for me. ![]()

I understand if somebody is complaining about the price. But realy i dont push nobody to buy and i understand all arguments. Maybe i should not have posted the watch here.

I'm certainly glad you posted the watch here Kazim...it's an absolute beauty and you're entitled to charge whatever you think the market will pay for it IMO! (you are producing some of the absolute best quality micros out there). I expect all 10 to sell out in a flash. (Is this a limited edition or limited run piece with more to be made in the future?).

There's a bunch of readers on 3T and certainly few of them been pulling the trigger on this limited bronze after reading this post. You are always welcome here Kazim. I'll pass for this bronze but I'm planing to be back for a S.Steel custom like my earlier 1500 co-axial ![]()

after reading some of these posts,and those of my Euro watch friends on facebook,I can honestly say there is quite a difference in how Kazimon is viewed...it would seem Kazimon has been bunched in with the other micro brands out there,most of which are Asian watches, by members of certain forums...Kazimon is neither a micro brand,nor an Asian brand,but an independent watchmaker,manufacturing 100% Made in Germany watches in his own facility.I think if everyone saw Kazim for this,then perhaps you would not be comparing his creations,and pricing to those mass produced in China,but to other independent watchmakers using eta movements whose prices make Kazims watches look like a bargain!![]()

This is very true Oscar...and I definitely agree with you on all fronts there for sure. ![]() I may be getting a bit hung up when comparing this K-Naut II price to the previous offerings from Kazimon (seems like a pretty significant price jump), but at the same time I realize that I will be drooling after every single one of these 10 K-Naut II's!....No doubt about that...Kazim has a unique thing going with his truly independent operations providing us with a 100% German piece that we will never see anywhere else due to his own manufacturing facilities. It's a winner for sure...but I continue to struggle with the Kazimon price jump in my own mind.

It is not a watch I would buy, but purely on the ground that I honestly have not made my mind up where I stand on bronze watches. Bearing in mind Kazim's reputation, I would think that if these are one-off 10 pieces, never to see the light of day again, the price tag is justified and, arguably, would even be justified if it was an ss watch. I think the arguments pro/con have been healthy and respectful - as you would expect in 3T - and I sincerely hope that Kazim will continue to offer his watches through the forum. I have yet to pull the trigger on one of his creations!
