About the Experience
Your experience begins with an immersion in the history of watchmaking, narrated by our Master Watchmaker, who will introduce you to the subtleties of the tourbillon complication. You will then be invited to select each component of your tourbillon watch, in order to assemble it yourself at the workbench. A wide range of designs and nuances awaits you, to create a fully customized timepiece.
By choosing a “Tourbillon” workshop, your watch will be equipped with a 100% Swiss hand-wound movement with tourbillon complication. Developed by one of our external watchmakers with whom we have been collaborating since 2017, this tourbillon caliber, whose cage rotates every 60 seconds, has a power reserve of 105 hours.
