While I was surfing, I came across amazing tourbillon watches on the web and decided to write a post about them. Be warned though as these tourbillon watches are not what you may be expecting. The watchmakers or may I call them WatchGurus are masters in tourbillon design movements gracefully captured in a wristwatch!
The showcase below are indeed shocking, may not to you but to me yes indeed. I kept saying the word “WOW’ like a hundred times or more without me realizing it. I believe I am hooked! Let’s begin the showcase!
First up is BLU. Do you know that BLU is not the brand name but only the abbreviations for Bernhard Lederer Universe! The first time I saw BLU Galaxy was amazing! I thought BLU was a really cool brand name. Below is their latest collection in the Tourbillon series – BLU Tourbillon MT3.

Second is Corum Golden Tourbillon Panoramique! It’s more a mystery rather than a beauty to me. This particular Corum masterpiece inherits the floating sensation of its sibling The Golden Bridge. Very amazed at how the movement can stand on its own as if it is trapped in cold clear ice! Simply amazing!
Third is De Bethune Tourbillon Full Silicon which suddenly reminds me of the upcoming movie Avatar. The platinum case design keeps my attention running to and fro from the apparent tourbillon back to the case which I find them compliment one another. And the amazing blue that allows you to think beyond your dream and imagination. This special timepiece makes me feel that I am living in a fantasy!

Next that I recently browsed on the web is the Jean Dunand Tourbillon Orbital! Watchmaker Christophe Claret has the brains of Einstein! He successfully solved the challenge of winding and setting a constantly rotating movement and mainspring barrel with an innovative folding key set vertically into the movement’s central axis that both winds the mainspring and sets the time. In other words, he made a watch with the absence of the crown! Now you realize it, right? Me too. Remarkable example of making the impossible possible!
