New 2020 Brunswick Centennial

deanoc said:
is it a commercial tnle or a home model
someone said they were afraid it might cost as much as $8000

a gold crown sells for more than that

what is the suggested retail on this table?

In my opinion it was the best table Brunswick ever made,

has anyone actually seen one

$12K retail
 
My advice to any married guy is make sure the wife sees it before making a final decision. It may be the '57 Chevy of pool tables to us, but could be an Edsel to her.

I will say, in the right room, mid-century modern and art deco, jukebox, Elvis posters - they look great. But if you have Tuscan columns, travertine and marble, Mediterranean art - don't even think about it.

B'wick is basically an assembler and seller. Their stuff is made in knockdown kits shipped from China. They assemble in Bristol and then ship to dealers. Been doing it this way for some time.

Bingo! What we are looking at is a "replica" of a Brunswick Centennial table. A "made in China" replica to be exact. I love how it "looks" but I won't be replacing my Diamond Pro-Am with one anytime soon. I do miss the original old Anniversary I had several years ago. It came down to which one I wanted in my house and the Diamond won solely based on the fact that it was identical to the tables being used in many of the pro tournaments.

Well said, I prefer the Anniversaries over the Centennials but I wouldn't pay $500 for a crap Chinese table that probably comes with a healthy dose of the Ha-Chu virus 🇺🇸

Gold Crowns have been made in China since the late 70's and they're not junk. I predict this table is built very well.Worth $12,000?? Uh, no.
 
So...Much...Chrome!!!

Reminds me of my first motorcycle...chrome for days.

Give me the understated look of an Anniversary table. That and the whole "made in China, assembled in USA" is a bit of a turn off.
 
I'm sure it is a very solid table. Worth $12K? Probably not but still much less than a $25K Mark Gregory restoration.
 
I like the shape and the stance, but that's about it. Too much chrome for me. I don't enjoy the bling like I once did. Not even on cars/trucks. It's great on motorcycles though.

Why would you want a ProAm over a Professional?
I think Diamond considers the Professional a better built table because of the large beam construction.
