Tourbillons are universally recognized as a classical grand complication. This watch has a power reserve of 70 hours and it is housed in an Edward Piguet case. A new winding system with progressive return pawl enables the wearer to completely wind the barrel with 20% fewer turns of the crown.
The Edward Piguet collection models are distinguished by their elegantly curved rectangular cases, subtly reminiscent of the Art Deco. In keeping with these fundamental principles, Audemars Piguet has created a magnificent synthesis of noble characteristics: mechanical hand-wound movements featuring hand-crafted and decorated parts.
