The Bel Canto Phoenix has now arrived from Switzerland and undergoing Quality Control checks at CW, Maidenhead.

Some pics of the prototype attached. Three of the pics are with the Phoenix sitting on the wing of MSO 1. The fire pic was simply a quick phone snap whilst I watched a fire-eater perform at the weekend.

Just make sure it has loud chime sound and not like mine. very soft chime sound~~

JasH · 17 April 2024, 08:06 AM

Thanks everyone :) Glad you all like it

Yes the chime is normal on it, but this is just the prototype and I have to return it soon, when mine arrives.

ZOOK · 17 April 2024, 08:15 AM

Looks great, Jas. I can't wait for mine to arrive.

I imagine Jas will get the first one that's ready for a client since he put it all together and as he just got the prototype I doubt a customer will get one before he gets his (so he can ensure its what its supposed to be) BUT that is just my guess.

agriculture&watches · 18 April 2024, 03:54 AM

Wow!!! Amazing watch man!!! Congratulations!!!!
How did you took this photos ??

brandrea · 18 April 2024, 03:59 AM

Congratulations in advance

AuspiciousCat · 18 April 2024, 04:01 AM

That’s amazing Jas! Congrats!!!

joli160 · 18 April 2024, 04:26 AM

That’s beautiful

INC · 18 April 2024, 04:58 AM

Come on, come on, COME HOME!

Thanks Jas!

Topspin14m · 18 April 2024, 05:32 AM

Wow. That's insanely nice. Wish I had known about these when you could order them!

JasH · 19 April 2024, 06:30 AM

Thank you so much everyone

Glad you like the watch.

I don't believe any have finished going through QC just yet, but it must be imminent. It would not surprise me to see the first batches being delivered next week. CW said they would not be in any particular order, so I don't know if mine will be shipped first.

In case anyone is wondering about the car it's sitting on. It's this car that inspired it

Madman37 · 19 April 2024, 07:14 AM

Wow now that car is amazing

So, if you get the watch do they give you a day at Silverstone driving the car

1William · 19 April 2024, 11:49 PM

Congratulations.

INC · 20 April 2024, 12:18 AM

- watch: mission accomplished, but not home yet
- car: on my bucket list
- such a private jet?? It's not for me, I don't like the color.

:D

rolehex · 20 April 2024, 07:24 PM

Would love to buy that one...too bad they only have it limited to 99 pieces.

rolleyme · 22 April 2024, 04:03 AM

Can't wait to get mine! Hopefully all passed QC.

Wahlberg · 22 April 2024, 04:08 AM

Amazing colour.

What's up with the QC check? This is something you paid on your own?

I experienced the QC check with a standard BelCanto. After the watches are built in Switzerland, they are shipped to CW in UK for Quality Control inspection and then sent on to the buyer.

No, but if you buy the car, then McLaren do give you exactly that

CW standard procedure. But Bel Cantos get an extreme check.
