 BA111OD UNVEILS THE NEW CHAPTER 4 TOURBILLON T.V.D. POWERED BY ITS FIRST IN-HOUSE CALIBRE

Nearly five years after presenting its first tourbillon, BA111OD unveils a new generation of the emblematic Chapter 4 Tourbillon T.V.D., more assertive, more refined and more accomplished in its expression.

Faithful to the Maison’s codes, this evolution stands out through a reimagined architecture, an extended 120-hour power reserve and an openworked construction inspired by skeleton aesthetics, fully showcasing the mechanics.

This new generation also marks a major milestone for BA111OD with the introduction of its first internally developed tourbillon movement, the result of the recent integration of this expertise within its ecosystem. This hand-wound mechanical calibre beats at 3 Hz and offers a 120-hour power reserve, with the watch head certified as a chronometer by Timelab, the Geneva Chronometric Observatory.

Available in 39 mm and 43 mm, the model is distinguished by a redesigned 904L stainless steel case with a tantalum-grey DLC treatment.

The interplay of volumes, the alternation of polished, sandblasted and vertically satin-finished surfaces, and the restraint of its lines all enhance the watch’s visual depth and overall character. More refined in its execution, the dial opening frames the tourbillon at 7 o’clock and offers a more direct view of the barrel, the central organ of the movement.

 « The intention was to refine the watch and strengthen its visual language without losing any of its technical intensity. Through the dial and the flange, I worked on bevels, level changes and the subtlety of the finishes in order to accentuate depth and relief. By lightening the centre of the composition, we were able to give greater presence to the tourbillon and the engraved barrel cover, while preserving the hypnotic dimension that is intrinsic to the piece »
Liliane Murenzi, Head of Design, BA111OD

Developed within this strengthened ecosystem, in collaboration with exclusively regional partners, this new Chapter 4 Tourbillon T.V.D. fully illustrates the Maison’s roots in Neuchâtel and its determination to foster a contemporary, independent and deeply embodied form of Swiss watchmaking.

« Beyond mechanical performance, it is the meaning carried by the object that makes the difference. This new generation brings together precision, tension and emotion in an expression faithful to BA111OD’s ambition: making the exceptional accessible.»
