What is a tourbillon?

The principle of operation of the tourbillon is simple, like everything ingenious: the trigger mechanism and the balance are placed on the rotating carriage. As a rule, the platform makes a full revolution per minute. The center of gravity of an asymmetric node is shifted, which allows to eliminate the influence of gravity on the passage of time. At the end of the 18th century, it was quite difficult to make even the balance wheel, so clocks in a vertical position sometimes lagged behind, then rushed. Louis Breguet's invention increased the accuracy of the chronometer several times. Thanks to a talented engineer, people always knew the exact time when they put a watch on their wrist.





Tourbillon – a very complicated mechanism, the creation of which requires spending a lot of details and man-hours. Therefore, for a long time, inexpensive tourbillon watches were only a pipe dream for potential buyers. And the choice was small - fashionable wrist accessories were made only by the most skilled craftsmen. This is understandable: the real price of a collectible item is always higher than the corresponding monetary equivalent.

At the end of the 20th century, manufacturers gave Louis Breguet's invention a new life. The tourbillon turned men's watches into a real status item: they began to buy chronometers to emphasize their material position and status in society. In this regard, female models were in no way inferior to male models.

Modern production has significantly reduced the price of tourbillon watches, the price of which has become comparable to the cost of a powerful laptop or iPhone X, even people with average wealth can afford it. The fact is that the copy is made of cheaper materials than the original, but it is not inferior to expensive chronometers either in terms of design or functionality.
