@Kg277 you boring piece of cheap shit you've been on just about every watch vid on YouTube saying crap like 'flies beat their wings round my house with more accuracy' quite typical seen as you live in a fucking bin you cheap assed little turd. If you wanna stick to your gimp watch then you do that, I'll make sure to spare some change for you next you homeless fuck

@wackiiraqi984 I was just gonna say that Kg277 is an absolute idiot. But you said it much more poetically. What is it with people thinking that a fine watch is about keeping time? It's about craftsman ship, it's about art, and quite rightly as you pointed out, it's about the legacy of the watch, the manufacturer and the wearer, passing it on to the next generation. Kg277 desereves a $12.95 casio, nothing more.

My $12.95 casio keeps better time this this mechanical shit..

RollaArtis: Apparently this is a design of Patrick Augereau based on the Robin escapement, AP themselves say this.

I did not realize that this escapement, invented by Robert Robin in 1792 has now in true Swiss tradition been appropriated and rebranded as the 'Audemars Piguet escapement'. The safety action was also devised around 1800. Quite evidently it never performed as well as the double roller lever as they are rarely found.

Nice animations, very patient presentation.
-
stunning .. absolutely
-
This escapement is a beautiful alternative to the superb but delicate spring detent escapement.

I would love to see a comparison of the AP escapement vs the Daniels co-axial used by Omega

@Kg277 That might be true, but your $12.95 Casio was never worked on by a professional for many hours, your $12.95 Casio will never be mistaken for a work of art, your $12.95 Casio will never be worthy of handing down to the next generation. You will never get the satisfaction of looking down on your wrist while feeling the movement keeping time in a piece that is completely mechanical, using technology that has evolved over centuries. But that's ok with me.

I'm thinking that they were trying to make an escapement which would have a better error rate, and less friction, than a Swiss lever.
