Cvstos presents the "king of complications"--the tourbillon--within a dynamic vision of sports luxury watches that is sure to conquer the fickle hearts of discriminating horological connoisseurs.

Exactingly crafted from a block of platinum, 5N 18K rose gold, or grade 2 titanium, the tonneau case of the Cvstos Challenge Tourbillon Sport watch measures 53.70 X 41mm in the "Challenge" version. Those who enjoy the largest of timepieces will find the Challenge GT version to their liking, with its imposing dimension of 59 X 45mm. A rubber decorated screwed crown in titanium helps assure a sports-appropriate water resistance rating of 100 meters. The curved case is matched to a shaped sapphire crystal which permits an exceptionally clear view of the dial, whose open structure reveals glimpses of the movement structure and the mechanical artistry of the flying tourbillon cage; three red arms on the cage mark off of the passage of seconds, as the tourbillon undergoes its mesmerizing revolutions.

The heart of the Cvstos Challenge Tourbillon Sport watch is the manually wound CVS 2600C, with its classically paced 18,000 vph balance wheel frequency, and lengthy 60 hour power reserve. Each is hand-built by master Cvstos watchmakers at the brand's atelier in Meyrin, Switzerland. Depending upon customer preference, Cvstos presents its Challenge Tourbillon Sport timepiece in versions with a bracelet in the same material as the case, or a strap in black or white rubber, as well as alligator. The deployant buckles echo the intricate quality of the case, and open and close positively with a double-button release system.
