Greubel Forsey Double Tourbillon 30° Edition Historique Hands-On

In the exclusive world of Haute Horlogerie, new brands come and go at an amazing speed. Attracted by the promise of over-hyped products to make huge profits, they introduced a concept that allowed the marketing machine to run at speed, and then waited for the money to flow in. As you might imagine, this approach has several major flaws, especially the fact that these "new" players lack credibility in the eyes of the high-end consumers they are trying to attract.

However, from time to time something special will appear. A brand that is more interested in making incredible watches than in making money. A long-term established brand, so unwilling to compromise in the short term. Brands like Greubel Forsey.Richard Mille RM 70-01 Alain Prost

In just over a decade, this ultra-high-end watch manufacturer has accomplished many things that were previously considered impossible. In other words, they have established a highly respected reputation for creating incredible timepieces comparable to the work of any modern master, and laid the foundation for a lasting legacy for this. To understand how they did it, you just need to pick up one of their timepieces. Admittedly, it is easier said than done, which is why today we are bringing you the first-hand experience of the red and gold double tourbillon 30° Edition Historique.

Greubel Forsey Double Tourbillon 30° – The Edition Historique Fans of Greubel Forsey are undoubtedly familiar with the importance of the double tourbillon 30° to the short history of the brand. This timepiece was first introduced in 2004, and its amazing complexity and the resulting success formed the basis for the legality of subsequent inventions. It was this original watch that effectively pushed Guberfors into the spotlight, announcing the arrival of a first-class new watchmaker that the world has never seen before.copy watches for sale

Given the importance of this piece, you can imagine it was shocking when the brand announced in 2010 that they would cease production. However, the logic behind the decision is quite reasonable. Gropperfors is first of all an inventor and innovator, so their energy and investment funds must always focus on the future, which reminds me of Edition Historique.

The Edition Historique, launched in 2010, is a unique 11 pieces of 5N red gold and 11 pieces of platinum. It is designed to commemorate the closure of the double tourbillon 30° Hyundai series after six years of success. Honestly, it is hard to imagine a more suitable tribute.

Like all Greubel Forsey timepieces, Edition Historique requires careful study before it can be truly appreciated. Presented in a gorgeous 44.5mm red gold case, the first highlight for me is the 18k gold dial with three sapphire crystal plates decorated with current structure text. Unfortunately, it’s all in French, so I can’t understand most of it, but it’s clear that the inventors of the double tourbillon 30° (Robert Gruber and Stephen Fauci) took advantage of this unique space-and fixed it with screws The four hand-decorated curved plates on the case-explain the reasoning and philosophy behind their invention, and then explain their brand.fake watches for sale

Once you stop staring at this tiny but fascinating text, you will find that the partially open dial also includes a central hour and minute display, a fan-shaped 72-hour power reserve indicator at 2 o'clock, and a small second at 2 o'clock. Location. 4 minute and 60 second rotation indicators at 9 o'clock and two tourbillons. This brings me to my second highlight, the 30° tilting double tourbillon.

Basically, this complex mechanism consists of two tourbillons, one spinning inside the other at different speeds. Yes, it looks as spectacular as it sounds. The lower part of the dial is completely cut off, and the incredible double tourbillon mechanism can be seen from the front and back. Every part is carefully crafted according to the highest standards, and the exquisite surface treatment is incredible whether it will be seen by anyone other than the Gaupperfors watchmaker.best Breitling Endurance Pro

Hold it in your hand and you will be amazed by the unique creativity of Edition Historique. No matter where you look, you will find some tiny new details, some subtle touches that you somehow missed before, such as the beveled relief of the bezel to ensure that the final version of this iconic series has its own unique look, while still retaining the inner Design features such a popular Koppel Forsey timepiece.

Considering the importance of the first invention to the long-term success of the brand, it is indeed sad (if not surprising) to see the double tourbillon 30° retired at such a young age. At least it seemed so at the time. However, in the next few years, many exciting things happened in Greubel Forsey, and if the brand is still focused on reinventing early models, most of these things may not be possible. So you see, this is not all bad news after all. replica Tudor Black Bay Bronze watches
