However, there has been a quiet revolution in the manufacture of tourbillons. China has entered the market and a number of Chinese watch manufacturers are manufacturing tourbillons at affordable prices.
Apparently 75% of Swiss Tourbillons are made by one manufacturer while some three or four Chinese manufacturers, PTS Resources, Beijing Watch Co, SeaGull and Innovate dominate the Chinese made tourbillon market. The finest Swiss made tourbillons are streets ahead of Chinese made tourbillons but don't knock the Chinese product, some of them are well made and unlike their Swiss cousins, Chinese tourbillons are affordable, sometimes just 1% or less of the price of a Swiss tourbillon.
