Suspended between the hour and minute rollers, the asymmetrical, 60-second flying tourbillon of the Weap-One rotates on multiple axes. This novel and innovative feature enables the tourbillon to defy earth’s gravitational pull from all sides. Completed with two wheel nuts, this timepiece is truly revolutionary and unique.
Inspired by race car suspensions, the exclusive manufacture manual movement, developed in collaboration with Concepto, includes 529 parts and 10 ball bearings. Beating at 21,600 vph, it has a 50-hour power reserve and is housed in a detachable tube so it can easily become a miniature table clock. To facilitate handling, this technical prowess has an armature comprised of two push-pieces located on the titanium chassis.
The hour is displayed on the left and the minutes on the right, while the tourbillon is skillfully suspended between two platinum plates which rotate in opposite directions and at different speeds. Several speed differentials cause the flying tourbillon to rotate on multiple axes, rendering this manual engine extremely resistant to Earth’s gravitational pull.
A series of accessories will soon be available to multiply the uses of this timepiece, allowing it to become either a desktop clock, a car clock, or a pocket watch.
