Pierre Kunz Tourbillon TriRetro Watch

The Pierre Kunz Tourbillon TriRetro watch, Ref. G703 T STR, is a visual delight for connoisseurs which combines the mesmerizing beauty of Abraham-Louis Breguet's famous invention with a triple-retrograde seconds display that is the defining specialty of Pierre Kunz.  The gifts of these great watchmakers from two centuries keep the dial alive with a veritable symphony of precise mechanical performances.

To highlight the power of the complex mechanism, Pierre Kunz has placed the movement in a suitably luxurious case, crafted from platinum, or 18K gold in a choice of red or white shades.  The "Empire" style case exudes strength and classicism, as well as rich detail, evidenced by the impeccable brushed surfaces and the exotic fluted textures that adorn the flanks.   Polished Roman numerals around the dial edge provide a classical impression which changes to one of greater expressive freedom as the eye is invariably drawn to the center; here, technical mastery and artistic organization merge with dazzling effectiveness.  Three organized fan-shaped sectors bear richly blued subsidiary seconds hands, which move back and forth in sequence over their sectors to mark off the passage of minutes; their unified design frames the aperture in which the tourbillon cage mysteriously turns, bearing the balance wheel and the various elements of the escapement.

A manually wound masterpiece gives the Pierre Kunz Tourbillon TriRetro watch life.  A sapphire crystal window in the caseback gives a view of this exceptional movement, which is decorated in accordance with traditional techniques.  Balance wheel frequency is a classical 18,000 beats per hour, and power reserve is an impressive 70 hours.  

The Pierre Kunz Tourbillon TriRetro watch is available in platinum, grey gold, or red gold 5N.  Each variant is completed by a hand-stitched alligator strap and a buckle crafted from gold or platinum.  A water resistance rating of 30 meters protects this complex horological treasure from the damaging effects of moisture.
