With a limited edition of only 25 pieces, Concord’s C1 Tourbillon Gravity is quite possibly the most exclusive watch on the market today. Available at King Jewelers in Aventura, Florida, this Tourbillon ranks Concord more firmly than ever in the highest echelons of engineering expertise by affixing the Tourbillon mechanism vertically on the outside of the watch, an unprecedented move.
Developed in partnership with BNB Concept and Blade Design, firms specialized in high-end niche watch creations, the Tourbillon Gravity sums up the very essence of Concord’s boldness and creative energy. This concept piece was conceived, elaborated and assembled in twelve months. CEO Vincent Perriard partnered with these two brands because of their extreme enthusiasm for Concord and their desire to propel Haute Horlogerie into the next generation.
The result was an unexpected, daring and cutting design that put the Tourbillon alongside the body of the watch, thereby freeing up space in the case for many more complications. The Tourbillon, although seemingly disconnected from the movement and case, is actually connected to the rest of the mechanism by a perpendicular pinion.
The upper and lower bridges of the Tourbillon carriage, as most of the movement bridges, are made from aluminum-lithium, an exceptional high-tech material that has proved it’s worth ion the aerospace industry. Anti-corrosive and anti-magnetic, this alloy features the best union of sturdiness and lightness. Because of its difficulty to manufacture and its extreme expense, it is rarely used in watch making.
But the C1 Tourbillon Gravity is astounding in more than one way. A single glance is enough to identify it as a free spirit in the universe of Haute Horlogerie. Not just a Tourbillon disconnected from the case, it also has an unusual seconds indication, a flyback chronograph and a trust index display. This whole range of specific features symbolizes the audacity of a brand that reinvented itself just one year ago.
