Description

AQUANAUTIC is proud to present its very first « Tourbillon », a watch endowed with a strong and harmonious design. It constitutes the outcome of a long maturation and work focused on the aesthetic of a complicated movement. The Superking Diving Tourbillon truly reflects AQUANAUTIC spirit by combining modern design with « haute-horlogerie ». The challenge of this timepiece was to be as meticulous in the conception of the case as for the movement. It took two years to reach the final result and lead to the right mix of technological sophistication, hardiness, delicacy and luxury. The Superking Diving Tourillon is a real work of art and henceforth proves that a watch can be more than functions or technical prowess. The innovation here is the place that the Tourbillon occupies, totally impersonated in the blue gold dial laser carved into a submarine. The superior bridge of the Tourbillon shaped as a propeller, rotates in one minute and thus becomes the driving force of the submarine. With this exploit, the Tourbillon and the dial become one in order to give life to the whole watch. This 1450 calibre flying Tourbillon without ball bearings was achieved by BNB. The Tourbillon is a mono-pusher column-wheel chronograph with two counters, the minutes and the seconds counter. It is a self-winding mechanical movement with a five days power reserve indication situated at 9h. The Swiss lever escapement is assembled in the Tourbillon frame placed at 6h. The chronograph singularity and strength can be found in the fact that it is just fixed to the superior bridge of the Tourbillon frame. It also has a second time zone housed in the internal bezel of the dial and is adjustable with the crown placed at 9h. The artistic direction of the brand follows the codes of the submarine world which is AQUANAUTIC core territory. It can be noticed through details such as the silkscreen borrowed from submarines counters or the old style diving helmet subtly sketched in the back of the case. In this timepiece performance meets design with perfection. Indeed, the transparency coming from the antireflection double face treated glass sapphire, the skeleton dial entirely made of blue gold – exclusively at RAYMEYER – and the red counters printed on the glass sapphire, enables to appreciate this magnificent Tourbillon The omnipresence of the 18 carats pink gold enhances the watch's excellence, whether it is on the external unidirectional bezel, the internal rotating bezel, the crown locks or various components of the Tourbillon itself. The brand's symbol represented by a seahorse is also made of pink gold, and is set as a precious stone on the triple folding buckle, conceived to be worn on top of a diving equipment. The strap made of rubber is rather discrete. The complex case entirely in titanium for its lightness, takes its inspiration from the nautical world. Created to resist to a harsh environment, the crowns and their locks – elements which contribute to AQUANAUTIC identity – resist to a 300 meters (30 ATM) depth. The Superking Diving Tourbillon shines through its technical and visual ingenuity with all components interacting in order to create an outstanding timepiece; a dream realized.
