Why Tourbillon Device so Popular?

Watches Review Center Report: The same section of the watch, there tourbillon device, and suddenly ten times more expensive! Therefore, to match with the diamond Tourbillon is definitely greater.

From another perspective, watch tourbillon on the dial and diamond like more like a luxurious decoration. Previously, only the application of the tourbillon pocket watch placed on the vertical, gravity is not crucial for the watch, but the real watchmakers use for the "Tourbillon" to highlight the brand strength, and watch the owner, are willing to In this delicate and expensive mechanical device to show off status and taste. Especially men, complex machine with a mysterious attraction on them.

Perhaps this is the tourbillon as the reasons for the favorite.


What is a Tourbillon
Tourbillon is the mechanical clock in the "rotation speed escapement body", the device is characterized by a balance wheel and escapement in itself can also run with a 360 degree rotation, so the maximum limit reduces the effects of gravity and improve the accuracy of travel time. It weighs less than 0.3 grams, has dropped from more than seventy fine components, mostly homemade, this is it expensive. It represents the mechanical manufacturing process in the very high level, because of its unique operation mode, has to watch the dynamic art of the United States to play to an unprecedented extent, so the device is equipped with tourbillon watches are often not the value of Fiji.

Tourbillon three
Tourbillon in French for "rotation" means, Tourbillon device also means that the rotation. Tourbillon three, if in appearance, is a different spin dynamics.
Tourbillon the initial appearance: 1801, made Breguet Tourbillon watch the Wizards franchise. This great invention has a frame to rotate, which hold the balance wheel hairspring (movement of the heart) and the escapement and other components. When the flywheel in the evenly rotating frame, the balance wheel and escapement movement itself, while also continue to change position, thereby maximizing the impact of gravity offset (especially when the watch is placed perpendicular to the role more obvious.) Breguet Tourbillon by the "rotating frame" and "fixation" composed of two basic components. "Balance cock" subsidiary in the rotating frame, rotating together with the flywheel.

Fei Tuo frame suspended flight: In 1927, Professor Zhong Biaoxue Alfred Helwig in Germany produced a "flying tourbillon" model, the reason will be "flying" the word, because in this structure is not a "fixation" component , from the appearance of look, eliminating the flywheel on a horizontal frame, the rotating frame is suspended up to improve the operation of the flywheel when the mystery form and dynamic artistic beauty, nature, manufacturing process is also higher over.

China Tourbillon: the rotation of the mysterious art. Do not think that is the Swiss watch tourbillon master patents in 1993, the Chinese Jiaoda Yu in Hong Kong "day Miriam Xuan" watch studio, the first successful invention and manufacture of hand "magic Tourbillon", the first time ever the invention of rapid sensation in the international watch industry, it is also known as "Jiao's magic Tourbillon" or "Chinese Tourbillon." Why call it "magic" mean? There are two reasons: First, the traditional flywheel "rotating frame" and "fixation" does not exist; at least half of the flywheel to reduce weight, improve accuracy and stability of travel time, while enhancing the performance of the shock. Second, the use of transparent glass instead of the original balance wheel made of metal splint, and the piece of plywood with no rotation with the flywheel. This structure in operation is even more mysterious, greatly improving the dynamic art form flywheel.

Tourbillon looks beautiful
1867, Constant Girard introduced the "Three Golden Bridge" tourbillon pocket watch, not only at the World Fair in Paris, received the gold medal, and became history's most classic works of watches, the movement of gold material mainly by the three bridging splint support Tourbillon movement shows the overall visual aesthetic.

Blancpain Tourbillon watch the flight, the perspective of the dial to the movement of a variety of devices glance, especially in the 12-point scale orientation of the flying tourbillon device is fly like a swan.

HARRY WINSTON tourbillon watches, Peter Speake-Marin is a product of joint cooperation in the movement on a dual power reserve display agency, undoubtedly is a major innovation in the watch.

Limited edition of St. Herbalife Women tourbillon mechanical watch, shows the love of complex mechanical watches is no longer a man's patent, the same technology could be introduced Tourbillon favorite time of the field of women in the 18K rose gold case equipped with a manual mechanical movement, and the symbol of St Bollywood - SH abbreviation is as a "rotating frame" pattern can be described as dual.

Women also love Tourbillon
In 2006, the world's altar watch presents A strong trend - women's multifunction watch. In addition to diamond embellishment and fashion modeling, women have become more masculine watch requirements, and whether it is not really interested in the machinery, at least, the position of equality with men to show.

In 1997, Girard Perregaux Women's watch factory launched the "Three Golden Bridge" tourbillon watches, tourbillon not only into the world of women, and continuation of the "Mona Lisa in the watch" in the world, the three components for a fixed arranged parallel to the gold bracket under the dial. In recent years the design of the "Cats Eye Tourbillon" watch, in the case of the shape, color matching and other aspects of work under the foot, the tourbillon dress more feminine.

Zenith's first true women's only tourbillon - Starissime, the biggest highlight is the clever combination of function and design, in addition to other places in the case and dial set with 230 diamonds weighing 9.8 karats, people directly associated with this is a favorite section of the watch by women, while the tourbillon was designed as a fixed star bracket, it also adopted the ELPrimero movement, is a combination of the world's only ultra-high frequency timing and movement tourbillon device.
