Maybe Can he confirm !?
As for me, i had him by mail one or two months ago about Pam work.
So it may be just a break as he seems to do sometimes.
Just saying.
Fingers crossed

I spoke to him in November(same email) and he showed me some watches he had left and said that he wouldn’t be making anymore.
He had at the time 4 BPFF and I grabbed one.
He will be missed, as so very few went the distance he has done in his creations.
++1 it would be a disaster for vintage Pam fans like us

I remember that I have looked for Jackson Tse a couple of times, when did he step down from the scene?

Sad news. He wasn’t the most loquacious of fellows but he was efficient and reliable and the quality of his offerings was undeniable.

I have one of his Benrus repro cases I was mulling selling, I think I’m gonna hang on to it now considering.

I wonder if it’s just a matter of time before his stuff starts to command an additional premium on the second hand market the same way those Silix kampf cases do.

Haha, I have a good stash of his EGI's, but he got rid of all his EGI parts years ago. I tried to buy everything he had left, but he was spot out. He really didn't have many parts left over.

What you see pop up on the boards is all that's left.

I do have a couple I may part with but [mention]Aikidosan[/mention] was one lucky guy who got a case a couple weeks ago. Stay tuned for his build....

I wonder what happens to the manufacture of these just like With TC Dial, Case, insert.....Are these made to the sellers specs and then run out and no longer available or are these parts still being made somewhere. It annoys me no end plenty of people would love to buy DSN watches or even just some of the parts same with TC but once the seller gives up the parts cease to be made even though the market still exists??????? this for me is a big ?????

They focus on a different rep, usually a modern model.

After stopping production of a model, only refurbished watches and spare parts left and then, nada.
