This strikingly attractive and historic piece of Formula 1 memorabilia is one of the rarest models of F.P. Journe’s production, this Ruthenium Tourbillon Souverain is number 92 of only 99 pieces made between 2001 and 2005. One of the set of 5 watches of F.P. Journe’s ‘Ruthenium Collection’, each numbered 92/99 from the Michael Schumacher collection.
Tourbillon Souverain
The ‘Tourbillon Souverain’ is the one that is arguably Journe’s most famous wristwatch model and still one of the most accurate on the market today. Launched in 1999, it was the first ever tourbillon with a remontoire d’egalité, the first time a remontoir device had ever been used in a wristwatch. The remontoire d’egalité is a mechanism which delivers a constant force throughout the duration of winding, therefore the variable force delivered by the mainspring to the escapement as it unwinds is equalized. The Tourbillon Souverain’s combination of remontoire with tourbillon successfully showcases F. P. Journe's technical and design genius in the creation of a highly complicated modern wristwatch yet one whose roots are firmly in the great horological traditions. François-Paul Journe's ingenious masterpiece.
The Tourbillon Souverain, received the ‘Aiguille d’Or’ prize at the Geneva ‘Grand Prix d’Horlogerie’ in 2004. It was also elected watch of the year at the ‘Watch of the Year’ grand prize in Japan in 2004.
