Perrelet has taken to playing the game of exploring the many possibilities afforded by its famous double rotor watches, in their Turbine version. Here, the brand plays with fascinating reflections of gold and hints at the wealth and passions it can create – a favorite topic in spy novels.
On the Turbine 007, gold literally makes our heads spin. The precious stage-setting is created by golden ingots drawn on the lower dial, with a solid gold ring placed in the center of the stylized upper turbine. The gilding on the numerals, hour-markers and hands reflects the same shimmering glow, creating an extremely chic and rosy tone that makes a beautiful contrast with the dominant black background. To enable the magic to weave its spell, simply move the watch around on your wrist. The turbine immediately kicks into action, and depending on how fast it rotates, the gold shines and sparkles between the blades to the point of merging the various golden accents to produce a multitude of mirages. The never-ending race of the hands brings its own set of fanciful touches. Taking part in such fascinating espionage of a world of secrets is a truly delightful prospect.
Modern-day horology spies can set off on their mission with a 44 mm-diameter Turbine watch in DLC-coated steel, issued in a special 888-piece limited edition.
