Salon International De La Haute Horlogerie 2017: most spectacular perpetual calendar watches

February 1, 2017

Inside the 43mm case of the Tourbograph Perpetual ‘Pour le Merite’, one finds the Lange manufacture calibre L133.1. This manual-wound movement, which offers a split-seconds chronograph and tourbillon, also incoporates a perpetual calendar, the first time the latter complication appears on the visionary “Pour le Merite” collection. As with its predecessor, this 1,319-component timepiece features a fusee-and-chain transmission, with the latter comprising 636 components alone. Another new introduction is a black-polished sculpted tourbillon bridge, which perfectly matches the curves of the aperture; the process of polishing required the creation of special tools and intense weeks […]

Bulgari unveils the Tourbillon Saphir Ultranero complication

March 7, 2015

The supremely classic Bulgari tourbillon is housed within a sapphire crystal case supported by a titanium structure.

The impact is emphasised by the hour-markers and green microtubes enhanced with Superluminova® (SLN) –  a highly luminescent material – inserted into the central part of the case. The overall architecture of this creation is also singular: the construction of the Tourbillon Saphir Ultranero resembles the shape of a drum. The screws holding the titanium structure and sapphire crystal are secured to […]
