An real eye-catcher, a suspended tourbillon appears majestically in a transparent timepiece which reveals all the watch’s components. This Gérald Charles timepiece is a subtle blend of traditional watchmaking savoir-faire and unpretentious, contemporary design. The view of the manufactory-made skeleton movement and its “floating” tourbillon is fascinating. A bold work of art, the Maestro can be admired in the round.
