Greubel Forsey and their latest watch, the Greubel Forsey GMT Tourbillon.
The GMT features a second time zone indication complemented by a three-dimensional globe providing an intuitive picture of time all over the world, all set in a distinctive asymmetrical case.
A dual-function pusher allows quick setting of the second time zone, indicated on a small dial at 10 o'clock as well as adjustment of the rotating globe. Accuracy is assured by the 25° inclined Tourbillon 24 Secondes regulator, while a 72-hour power reserve indicator at 4 o'clock monitors available power.
On the back of the timepiece, a worldtime disc with cities in each of the 24 time zones facilitates the setting of the globe and provides an alternative view of universal time.
Since I like to read and sometimes write about some of the finest luxury watches from around the world, I’d like to think I know about most of the watch manufacturers but sometimes even I come across a manufacturer that I’ve never heard of before. In this instance, the luxury watchmaker is Greubel Forsey and their latest watch, the Greubel Forsey GMT Tourbillon.
The GMT Tourbillon is an amazing watch and I’m glad I stumbled upon it; it has a very unique feature that I’ve never seen before on a timepiece. The main feature of the Greubel Forsey GMT Tourbillon watch is the 3 dimensional globe placed at the 7/8 o’clock position. The globe is surrounded by a disc that has 24 hours of the day marked on it; the hours between 18:00 and 6:00 represent nighttime and are on a dark background while the hours between 6:00 and 18:00 represent daytime and are on a light background.
