Complicated Design: Tourbillion Watches

Tourbillion

The early Swiss made replica watch was based on the pocket watch, whose movement produces small error due to the influence of gravity when put at the vertical direction. Until 1801, French-Swiss A.L.Breguet released the world first Tourbillion watch, which assembles the balance spring wheel group, escapement fox, lotus wheel and some other complicated release catch on the coaxial frame that can rotate 360 degree. This enables the Tourbillion frame to rotate at a constant speed, so as to offset the influence of gravity, avoiding the irregular error led by the balance wheel at different barycentric positions. Though the science and technology are advanced and other methods to make sure time accuracy turn up successively, position of Tourbillion cannot be substituted. Now we specially collect numerous of latest Tourbillion watches. Some brands are proud of their brands’ reputation; in addition, some praise their strange dial design, at last, some sings highly of their traditional design.

Piaget is always famous for researching the ultra-thin movements; the brand new Emperador Coussin ultra-thin self-winding tourbillion replica watch Swiss inherits the features of two legendary movements, including two global thinnest movements: 600P manual winding rectangle tourbillion movement and 1208 self-winding movement. Emperador Coussin is powered by the 1207P self-winding movement, which has a thickness of 5.55 mm. Because Emperador series features a pillow-like case, the 1207P movement is also the same, symbolizing hundred years’ tradition of high-class watch making. Laser engraved sapphire crystal dial creates a kind of unique surface effect and allows you to clearly see the details from self-winding to minute assembling.

Richard Lange Tourbillon Pour le Merite is the brand’s fourth watch model entitled “Pour le Merite,” only those equipped with sesame chain can it be called. Pour le Merite is the highest honor of science and art achievements praised by Germany, which was established by the famous Alexander von Humboldt in 1842. The inner sesame chain system and tourbillion with patented stopwatch function improve the watch’s stability and accuracy. Dial layout stemmed from the precise timer in the 18th century, the large minute circle on the upper side is the main part, while the lower left and lower right are relatively smaller second hand and hour hand sub-dials. Tourbillion frame is set on the round cut of second hand dial. In order to facilitate the wearers to clearly appreciate the operation of Tourbillion, the detail of tourbillion will be entirely displayed between 12 o’clock and 6 o’clock. Once hour and minute hands direct to 6 o’clock, the dial zone engraved Roman numerals VIII, IX and X will switch to the display window, making the hour indication more entire. When hour and minute hands direct to 12 o’clock, dial zone along with hour pointer will instantly disappear. In the approaching 6 hours, rotation of Tourbillion will be once again entirely presented to you.
