Here is a back photo
This is a prototype but it gives you an idea of what the back looks like.
MSRP is EUR250,000, which many find steep for a non-tourbillon.

A closer look at the Astroregulateur with exclusive technical drawings
Apologies for the recent absence my friends, I have been travelling. But I recently obtained several detailed and exclusive technical diagrams of the Astroregulateur which I would like to share. Late last year, at the Cartier Fine Watchmaking Club event, ...
A handsome and intelligent piece
which demonstrates how dedicated and far Cartier has come in high horology. Thanks for this.
Great explanation SJX
These drawings are really awesome. What a unique watch it is. Thanks! GEO
Excellent reporting
Probably shows Cartier is dead serious on not only fine watchmaking, but technical excellence and material innovation. Do you have shots of the back? What is the MSRP? Best, Horo

Some thoughts
A tourbillon averages out the gravitational errors since the balance wheel is constantly turning thus gravity acts on every point of it. The Cartier seeks to cancel out gravitational errors since the balance wheel is in a constant vertical position, so an...
