TURBINE HOPE developed exclusively for ONLY WATCH is highlighting the powerful symbol of HOPE and that "everything will be alright" thanks to the ongoing progress of medical and scientific research.
Especially conceived for ONLY WATCH, the "TURBINE HOPE" boasts an innovative case with a central body made of polycarbonate and carbon fibre, a first for Perrelet. As the Turbine blades spin, the lower sub-dial reveals a cloud of positive words and the protagonist of the design, the word “HOPE”, both made with luminescent material.
This design was inspired by paintings made by Italian children at the beginning of the pandemic in Italy and is a powerful symbol of hope that “everything will be alright” and that thanks to the ongoing progress of medical and scientific research, the virus will be defeated.
