A GEOMETRIC EXPRESSION OF THE GYROTOURBILLON
The Reverso Hybris Artistica Calibre 179 marries the technical tour-de-force of the Maison’s signature multi-axis tourbillon to the finest of artistic craftsmanship, harnessing the skills of the Manufacture’s Métiers Rares® (Rare Handcrafts) artisans to elevate this exceptional timepiece to a new level.
THE MECHANICAL INGENUITY
Representing mechanical sophistication to reach the utmost timekeeping precision, Calibre 179 features the innovative multi-axis tourbillon. Associated with the Duoface complication, it displays a different time zone on each dial as well as a 24-hour indicator for the second time zone on the reverse dial.
BEATING PRECISION
The Manufacture’s engineers have created an hemispherical balance spring – which expands and contracts like a beating heart-, adding aesthetic refinement at the heart of the Gyrotourbillon, as well as being highly efficient.
THE FASTEST GYROTOURBILLON
Visually enthralling to observe as it pirouettes around its twin axes, the Gyrotourbillon is a highly complex structure of 123 components. Fastest ever, the inner tourbillon cage rotates 360 degrees every 16 seconds and the peripheral movement makes a full rotation once per minute.
THE FLYING SPECTACLE
Supported by a ring of ball bearings, the flying Gyrotourbillon appears to be floating between the front and back dials of the Reverso, which is amplified by the light reflected from the polished blue lacquer disc positioned on the supporting cradle of the watch.
