During the creation of the Tourbillon 24 Secondes Vision, Robert Greubel and Stephen Forsey were confronted with a major challenge: how to house the mechanism of the Tourbillon 24 Secondes without sacrificing the timepiece’s pure, elegant lines. The solution was achieved by giving the case’s design a subtle, vertical asymmetry. By incorporating a sapphire crystal dome into the back of the timepiece, the model’s inventor-watchmakers were able to generate the volume required to house the tourbillon mechanism, thus leading to a perfect alchemy between performance and comfort.
