Renato Tourbillon
1. Dial implementation is attractive, with an inner mother-of-pearl dial rather than the unneccessary extra complications.
2. 48mm with a 38mm dial opening is reasonable.
3. The price point is actually lower than the flying tourbillons we saw from Stuhrling and Android. $599 + S&H. Limited edition of 50 per dial color (I'm sure that's 50 this month to be followed by another 50 next month... )
4. The fact that they are giving it a lifetime warranty is very nice. None of the other brands have done so. Warranty service on a tourbillon ain't cheap, even a Chinese one.
I think the bit in their marketing schtick about the movement being made by Android is pure B.S. It's a Chinese flying tourbillon movement. Period.
Now, that being said, my experience with Renato (ethics notwithstanding) from a build quality perspective is that they are leaps and bounds above Invicta, Stuhrling, Android, or anyone else who was at ShopNBC. I've yet to ever examine a Renato that wasn't top notch from a fit and finish standpoint.

Dear Friend,
Have you been wondering to yourself, where are new models from Renato? Well, today is an extremely proud & historic day for Renato Watches, Inc. After two years in the making, we would like to debut to you the first ever Renato Tourbillon!
Many of you have come to know Renato as a brand that strictly uses Swiss Made Movements in our timepieces. As a company we plan to overall commit to that, but at the same time offer unique opportunities & use only extremely special movements that have been built from the ground up by Renato in partnership with some of the most technologically advanced movement manufacturers in the Far East. This not only allows us to assure you the quality of these movements compared to other Tourbillon movements in the industry, but we are also able to bring it to you at a phenomenal & unheard of price point. This allows us to offer you a broader spectrum of timepieces, as well as maintain the strict & high quality you have all become accustomed to with Renato timepieces.
This first ever & first of series timepiece is a design inspiration of the Beast, but a totally different experience. Here is why....
* Case: A 48mm Diameter Beast Inspired Masterpiece. Perfectly rounded, smoothened, brushed & polished… this timepiece can compete with many multi thousand dollars priced timepieces currently in the market. We have also enlarged the dial opening to 38mm.
* Bracelet: Refined from the original Beast bracelet, the three-dimensional look & feel of the finely cut stainless steel mimics the end piece design of the case perfectly. You will never want to take this timepiece off your wrist due to the feel of the well-rounded high graded 316L stainless steel wrapped around your wrist.
* Crystal: An extremely hardened & domed Sapphire Crystal with 6 layers of Anti-Reflective coating for reduced sun light exposure.
* Dial: A brand new dial execution. This dial execution features a refined large claus de paris circumference with a deep & rich center of Grade A Mother of Pearl. This will be by far once of the nicest dials we have created to date. Your dial will also state your limited edition number.
* Case Back: A Sapphire Crystal, orange tinted exhibition case back. This wonderfully display's the masterful functionality of the 46 hour reserve Tourbillon Movement.
* Movement: Built by the Renato Watch Company, this mechanical Tourbillon is 30mm in diameter, 5mm thick and features a 46-hour power reserve! Built of Grade AAA components, we can assure you it as extremely reliable. Otherwise, we would not sell it!
Each and every Renato Tourbillon will come with an automatic lifetime warrantee. This is a great testament to the faith we have in our movements & timepieces that we build & will stand behind them for a lifetime! Your coveted timepiece will also come packaged in our high end alligator wrapped watch box ($100 value). This is usually reserved for our extremely unique timepieces.
The retail value of the Renato Tourbillon is $1999.99. Due to your loyalty & support of our company, we will allow you today to purchase this timepiece at just $749.99. If you finalize your purchase during the next week, you will be able to take advantage of our 20% discount voucher which will bring your total on the Tourbillon to just $599.99! Not only will this be one of the best Tourbillon timepieces you can buy at this price point or even quadruple this price point, but it is also one of the best priced in the industry! This is mainly due to the fact that Renato allows you to purchase these wonderful timepieces at manufacturer direct pricing and cutting out the middle man. Once you select the Tourbillon of our choice and checkout, simply enter in the Voucher Code TU770 for an automatic 20% discount on your entire shopping cart.
Please note that we were only able to build a total of 150 timepieces across three variations (50 of each). Any units that are not purchased during this event will be removed from our website and reserved for our international markets at the $1999.99 price point since there are distributors & wholesalers involved. Buy now from the manufacturer direct at this extremely special price. This timepiece is a one time production, limited edition & first of series and will be numbered so on your case back. This a timepiece that will be one of the greats & a true collectors piece.
Happy Passover & Easter from Renato!
Thank you for your loyalty & support,
Sincerely,
Daniel Mink
