An Appreciation of Two Watch Masterpieces Worthy of Taste

Saturday, April 7th, 2012

Cartier Rotonde de Cartier Cadran Lové Flying Tourbillon
Cartier Rotonde de Cartier Cadran Lové Flying Tourbillon
Cartier launched the Rotonde de Cartier Cadran Lové Flying Tourbillon this year. It is equipped with the refined Cartier 9458 MC movement engraved with “Hallmark of Geneva”, which adjust its gravity position to release a wide space for the masculine and elegant decorative patterns. With the resolute and masculine pattern and orbital-type hour markers against the background, the operation of off-center tourbillon looks like extremely flexible.

To enhance the overall aesthetics, Cartier abandoned to fix the framework of the traditional tourbillon between movement bridges and splints, the entire tourbillon framework as if “flying” on the bridges and suspended above its dial. This design will easily impacted by vibration and face the risk of balance wheel instability, therefore the watchmaker has paid numerous painstaking efforts on the design of this tourbillon framework. Placed the traditional complication movement at a well-organized and stylish configuration, this timepiece symbolized the unique spiritual connotation of Cartier.

What makes Franck Muller got the praise of numerous watch enthusiasts is that it always conveys the most direct shocking at a glance through its works. Again in 2011, Franck Muller challenged the limits and launched the new Giga Tourbillon.

This model boasts a number of precedents in the watch industry: the Giga Tourbillon is equipped with the world’s largest size tourbillon which can be fitted in the watch today, the oversized 20 mm Tourbillon occupying half of the watch. Another special feature is that this exceptional movement has been reversed, with the bridges placed on the dial side, the hour setting and winding section located at the base and the hour hand uniquely positioned on top of the minute hand.

In order to ensure a 10-day operating reserve, the Giga Tourbillon has been designed to feature four barrels, in comparison to traditional tourbillons which generally are powered by only one or two barrels. Besides, to ensure the stability and accuracy of balance wheel, Franck Muller has specially developed and produced the new large size hairspring (CGS 10.6).
