The monumental structure of this timepiece representing the second edition in the Histoire de Tourbillon collection saga launched in 2009 combines technical sophistication with modern design and consummate boldness. The Histoire de Tourbillon 2 watch issued in a 20-piece limited series explores new dimensions in horology by revisiting the supreme complication within its XXL 48.5 mm-diameter white gold case. This resolutely atypical exterior houses a mechanical hand-wound movement beating at its heart and powering a tourbillon coupled with running seconds at 9 o’clock, the hours with day/night indication at 2 o’clock, and the minutes at 6 o’clock. As if suspended in mid-air, the tourbillon radiates the hypnotic magic of a perfectly controlled balancing game, while the three-level bezel – representing a daunting challenge in terms of guaranteeing water resistance – serves to compartmentalise the various timekeeping indications. This enhanced visibility is underpinned by perfect visual equilibrium. Innovative design meets cutting-edge technology in a model that does not merely measure time, but actually lives it with vibrant energy and confidence.
