"When we envisioned the Chapter 4 Infinity Flying Tourbillon, chronometer-certified by the Observatoire Chronométrique de Genève and equipped with complications, we wanted to break the mould. Very few watch brands dare to offer a flying tourbillon with such scientific rigor — especially at such a fair price. That is our strength: defying expectations, delivering unmatched quality while making exclusivity more accessible," explains Thomas Baillod, founder of BA111OD.

Excellence, Shaped in the Neuchâtel Arc

A true masterpiece of ingenuity, the flying tourbillon embodies the very essence of Swiss haute horlogerie. Freed from its upper bridge, it appears to float in weightlessness, each oscillation embodying the pursuit of excellence. With its continuously rotating cage, it compensates for the effects of gravity, ensuring optimal movement stability.

Developed and crafted by the talented watch designer Olivier Mory, based in La Chaux-de-Fonds — already behind the Chapter Delta and Chapter 4 Tourbillon — the Chapter 4 Infinity Flying Tourbillon by BA111OD stands as a symbol of horological excellence. It reflects the perfection of a singular craftsmanship, where the human hand breathes soul into the mechanics.

Housed in a subtly concave 41mm case of polished 904L steel with welded lugs, this timepiece combines elegance with timeless brilliance. Its subtly off-centered sunray-finished cosmic blue dial captivates with its play of light and harmoniously arranged complications: a hammered and polished moon phase at 1 o’clock, the flying tourbillon at 7 o’clock, and a small seconds at 10 o’clock.

The polished dome and box sapphire crystal unveil the inner beauty of the mechanism, offering a stunning view of the hand-wound mechanical movement and its finely finished flanks.

Excellence, Certified by the Observatoire Chronométrique de Genève

This exceptional timepiece stands out through its chronometer certification awarded by Timelab – the Observatoire Chronométrique de Genève – a guarantee of unmatched precision, particularly in the complex execution of the flying tourbillon, where technical excellence reaches its peak. Boasting an impressive 120-hour (5 day) power reserve, it perfectly unites aesthetics with performance.

Thomas Baillod, founder of BA111OD, explains: "A true feat of engineering, the Chapter 4 Infinity Flying Tourbillon, chronometer-certified, transcends the mere function of timekeeping to embody the perfect harmony between precision and mechanical poetry. Driven by this pursuit of the absolute, BA111OD continues to push the limits of what’s possible — an ambition fueled by the excellence and priceless expertise of our watchmakers and local partners, the true protagonists of this adventure."

Excellence, Inherited

In the spirit of a centuries-old legacy, BA111OD carries forward a savoir-faire deeply rooted in the history of Swiss watchmaking. Research has revealed that the first Baillods were already active in horology within the canton of Neuchâtel as early as the 18th century. Today, Thomas Baillod continues to breathe new life into this tradition, exploring uncharted territory while remaining faithful to the values of fine Swiss watchmaking.

«Pour aimer du temps, celui quine compte pas» / « To love time, the one that doesn't count »

This enigmatic sentence, engraved on the barrel, is a tribute to Gil Baillod, the father of
Thomas Baillod, a leading figure in journalism in French-speaking Switzerland. He had written
it on the title page of the book he had written on the measurement of time, which he had
given to Thomas' best friend on the day of his death.
