The present exceptional bi-axial tourbillon watch is number 25 of a limited edition of only 33 pieces made in pink gold.
Girard-Perregaux has since the 19th century always been at the forefront of tourbillon technology, the company is of course world-famous famous for its distinctive patented Three Golden Bridges Tourbillon. The bi-axial tourbillon is one of the marvels of haute horology, far more than just a beautiful and mesmerizing mechanical work of art, it is a triumph at the highest level of watchmaking craftsmanship coupled with extraordinary technical knowhow.
In common with all tourbillon watches, the present watch is descended from Breguet’s original invention patented in 1801 to cancel out the negative effects of gravity to gain improvements in timekeeping. However, it was not until the British horologist Anthony G. Randall added a second axis to a tourbillon for use in carriage clocks in the 1977 that multiple axis tourbillons came into being.
This superb and visually impressive masterpiece of the watchmaker’s art will appeal to all who appreciate mechanical intricacies.
