I am more than skeptical

I am more than skeptical. If you have followed the genesis of this watch you will have noticed that they first tried to connect both escapements with the gear train WITHOUT a differential. This was (is) obviously not possible as one escapements will sooner or later block (as they will never be 100% synchronized) the other one and the watch will simply stop.... The final /actual solution appears to me as a desperate attempt to still use the second balance in order to avoid stopping the entire project because it is a dead end. How can the performance be any good if one balance has to move/transmit energy to another balance? A balance is technically not meant to drive anything but to move as freely as possible. I am even surprised that the watch is running at all.

Just my two usal cents

Rudis Sylva Oscillateur Harmonieux - the instantly compensating 'tourbillon'

Recent years have brought about a great deal of novel engineering tools and with them an abundance of watchmaking novelties. Multi-axis tourbillons anyone? Crazy constructions - no limits? It seems to me that many of those world firsts and revolutions som...

Then, we are two who would like to know more about its efficiency

I could hold this watch in my hands for several minutes in Paris and I was very interested by this 2 intricated wheels. On paper it is interesting to make those wheels working together. I imagine it is like having a differential between 2 balance wheels? ...

Very clean and nice finishing. Want to learn more on this piece.

Looks like it has a helluva presence on the wrist.

I remain deeply skeptical

I look forward to independent confirmation of performance. Thanks for the writeup and pics! _john

wonderful wonderful pics, thanks for sharing. i love the finishes on the watch., very beautiful. however like others have stated here (and elsewhere) this matter of mechanics perplexes me. all I see are skeptics and questions, and not once have I seen a b...

The same principles of the resonance, but here there's a connecting spring. It should be working. For real

You are right, it is working! Since 2009 I'am a happy owner of a Rudis Sylva Oscillateur Harmonieux and I can assure you that it works exactly like my chronographe from Vacheron Constantin . I wear it at work and to practice sports, and it has never betra...
