“ARCHITECTURE”: A CITY ON THE WRIST

The Tourbillon 24 Secondes Architecture is unlike any Greubel Forsey timepiece ever created. This calibre within a new convex conical frustrum case shape represents a complete departure from traditional movement construction and aesthetics and brings an architectural experience to the wrist.

Its components are suspended in space, seen through the large opening on the dial side. The case convex shape profile ensures optimal ergonomics and wrist comfort. In the Tourbillon 24 Secondes Architecture, the diameter around the caseback (47.05mm) is wider than it is around the bezel (45.50mm), thus combining the best of two worlds: It contains enough volume to fully showcase the movement architecture within, while at the same time giving the impression of being significantly smaller than it actually is.

Finally, the 50m water-resistant titanium case features three-dimensional, variable geometry lugs, hand-polished with hand finished straight graining, flowing seamlessly into a rubber strap with embossed text and finished with a titanium folding clasp.

The Tourbillon 24 Secondes Architecture will be limited to only 11 pieces in 2022, then to 18 pieces a year between 2023 and 2025 for a total of 65 exclusive timepieces overall.
