The L’Epée 1839 La Tour-Billon skeleton clock is equipped with a spectacular Tourbillon. The “ La Tour ” collection adopts the“ Less is more” motto of the famous Bauhaus Director Ludwig Mies Van der Rohe.
On that minimalist and pure design, a very sophisticated Tourbillon device replaces the standard escapement. A closer look of that most sought Tourbillon complication is quite fascinating and displays its beauty and the “two swords” bridge that reminds us of the great history of L’Epée 1839. This special La Tour-Billon highlights the mechanical movement whose elegance is revealed through the cover glass.
