The Palatial collection launched at the dawn of the decade is enriched this year by a trilogy of tourbillons available with three coloured crystal dial versions and two gold colors for the case. A collection within the collection, the Palatial Tourbillon comes with a minute repeater, jumping hours and retrograde minutes, or simply with a power-reserve display on the back of the watch. In keeping with his reputation for exuberance, Jacob Arabo infuses these Haute Horlogerie models with a liberal sprinkling of joyful originality, including crystal dials and alligator straps in a choice of blue, grey, red or green. In the case of the minute repeater model, the other advantage of the crystal dial lies in revealing the entire chiming mechanism which is rarely visible on a timepiece. The titanium case, blackened gold bridges, hand-chamfered plates and polished components reflect some of the hand-crafted finishes bestowed on this daring line.
