Greubel Forsey COLLECTIONS

Vision, Asymmetric, and Contemporary are the three pillars of this emblematic collection by the manufacture. Various golds and dials offer up a whole variety of possibilities, displaying the manufacture’s emblematic tourbillon in many different ways – from high-tech openwork through to timeless simplicity.

The Double Tourbillon 30° was Greubel Forsey’s first invention: inclined at 30 degrees and rotating once a minute, the first cage is inserted into a second, flat cage that completes a rotation once every four minutes. The Technical, Vision, Asymmetric, and Historic variations bear all the hallmarks of the collection that helped forge the Greubel Forsey legend.

Four tourbillons all play their part in delivering the greatest possible timekeeping accuracy. Sometimes visible only through the Quadruple Tourbillon’s sapphire caseback, the exceptional movement embodies the intimate link between the manufacture and each of its collectors – a select few.

The principle of this timepiece involves having two balance wheels, coupled by means of a spherical differential. A piece for seasoned collectors searching for the ultimate in mechanical precision. The two versions reveal the movement to varying degrees; the latter’s finishings have  lost little time in becoming a case study in independent Fine Watchmaking.

This timepiece from the manufacture has met with high acclaim from collectors. Greubel Forsey’s GMT displays a globe that reproduces the Earth’s revolution in real time, offering an intuitive way to read off universal time and featuring a day/night indicator. An outstanding approach to one of traditional watchmaking’s showcase complications.

There have been many adaptations of this complication, but this one is invigorating like no other. The technical complexity of Greubel Forsey’s perpetual calendar is equalled only by the ease with which it is read and the simplicity it takes to adjust it – not to mention its guaranteed chronometric precision, delivered by a tourbillon inclined at 25°.
