Description

Enlisting over 30 watch makers, 6 months of development and 450 processes, the Swan & Edgar Tourbillon men’s watch is a feat of horological engineering that embraces succinct weightlessness and ensures the balance wheel spins on multifarious planes. This equalises gravitational pull and amplifies precision and ornate movement. 
 
 Comprising a hand-assembled 322 part 19 jewel movement, you witness the complexities of the escapement and balance wheel housed within. These require an ambitious 50 plate milling process to hold the components in place. Yellow dial merges into jet black, hinting at the shift from day to night, and inspiring ideas about worlds beyond our atmosphere. 
 
 The abyss-black hand-waxed first layer leather strap with a butterfly folding clasp keeps a sapphire crystal glass, while the sapphire crystal skeleton caseback allows you to witness the tourbillon movement in all its gravity defying glory. All of this is contained within a 315 steel case. As the sun fades into the horizon, this whirlwind operation reminds us of the expanse of space hiding within the darkness.
