The VECTOR  LATHE is a Sincere lathe (made in China) put into a pretty wooden box and remarketed from Germany.  Due to the magic of designer label mindset,  an assumption is made that because it is sold from Germany, it is also made in Germany.  When all is said and done the Vector lathe is a Sincere lathe with a jacked up price.   Both the Sincere and the Vector lathes are good quality watchmaker lathes and are adequate machines to make staffs, pivots, screws and other small watch size parts.
