Нашел американскую контору Stauer, которая не особенно стесняясь копирует известные марки.
Делает и турбийоны (к вопросу о китайцах и проч.), чем и гордится:
Цитата:
Today only a handful of fine watch craftsmen can build a tourbillon. Rolex doesn't even try.
Stauer not only has mastered the rotating cage and the hand-crafted escapement but we do it at a price that literally sets back the clock to Napoleon's time. The Stauer Corsican is priced at under $1,000. None of the so called luxury brands price their tourbillons at under $20,000 but they still believe in the outdated notion that luxury hand craftsmanship needs to be exorbitantly overpriced. We believe that the Corsican will become the most successful of the rare Tourbillions in history.

Если запостил не туда, прошу перенести, куда следует - может, и вообще в "hommage", так как каталог данного производителя ими богат. Caveat emptor, одним словом.
