AHCI - That Triple-Axis Thing...

That Triple-Axis Thing...

...just blew my mind this afternoon. Sighting it in the catalog pics and media especially after winning the GHPG prize, I missed the opportunity to see it while it was in Singapore. Thankfully Bertrande and Philippe were in town and gave a private viewing. Spectacular and to me a great value piece.

I will let the pictures do the talking...

the titanium case gives the watch sensational wear. i had initially feared the dome would engulf the entire presentation of the timepiece, but it certainly did not. This is pretty much well documented, especially in interviews and in a very insightful Wall Street Journal article: The tourbillon runs independently of the time function - Vianney's approach and philosophy was to showcase the triple- axis tourbillon and in so doing highlighting the accentuated challenge of creating a tourbillon worthy of a master craftsman. I jolly well believe he achieved it.

I truly enjoyed myself. Thank you to Team VH !
