PERRELET Turbine and Tourbillon Black & Gold Ltd Ed

BLACK & GOLD Limited Editions

Deep black and the warm rose glow of gold combine to give life to a subtle play on colors creating a powerful contrast. A blend of opposite tones that set each other off to perfection, with the intensity of the black providing a perfect background to highlight the radiance of the light playing over the gleaming rose gold. This association creates an even more visually harmonious optical effect.

The iconic Turbine watch offers a stunning display of its shimmering rays, while the prestigious Tourbillon showcases the purity of its lines. These two limited edition models elegantly display Perrelet’s signature expertise and creativity.

On the 44 mm-diameter Turbine model, the characteristic upper rotor sweeps over a 4N rose gold-coated subsidiary wheel. Its luminous rays shine brightly on the surface, as the turbine swings into action. The hands, Arabic numerals and hourmarkers provide additional luminous accents at the heart of a black DLC-coated steel case. To set the finishing touch and heighten the contrasts, the lugs are crafted from solid gold, creating a striking connection with the precious crocodile leather strap.

The Turbine Black & Gold Special Edition is issued in a 77-piece limited series – a nod to the year 1777 which saw the founding of the Perrelet brand. Its automatic P-331 movement was developed on the Manufacture A10 base caliber. It beats at 28,800 vph and is endowed with a 42-hour power reserve. Its Côtes de Genève finishing may be admired through the sapphire crystal set into the caseback.

The new Tourbillon model features a 50 mm-diameter XL case appearing in this refi ned two-tone interpretation.

The rose gold bezel and case-back embrace a black DLC-coated steel case middle distinguished by a raised fl uted pattern. This majestic exterior houses a prestigious movement equipped with one of the fi nest accomplishments of the watchmaking art, the tourbillon, starring at 12 o’clock on the dial. Adorned with a fi ne silver-toned lattice pattern, it counts off the seconds above the off-centered hours and minutes subdial. The black background elegantly clothes the surfaces with their cleverly structured volumes. Rose gold enlivens the overall effect in a delightfully understated way, forming a perfect circle around the tourbillon, the dauphine hands and the baton-shaped hour-markers. The lugs merge seamlessly into the rubber strap, further emphasizing the purity of this creation.

The Tourbillon Black & Gold is issued in a 20-piece limited edition. The automatic P-311 tourbillon movement was developed for Perrlet in cooperation with MHVJ, a sister company within the group. Endowed with a frequency of 28,800 vph and a 65-hour power reserve, it is adorned with Côtes de Genève fi nishing visible through a sapphire crystal set into the caseback.
