Azimuth Twin Barrel Tourbillon for Fans of Supercars

The Azimuth Twin Barrel Tourbillon is a new luxury timepiece inspired by cool cars. Described by its creators as a complex modern machine, the watch demonstrates a unique case crafted from titanium. The case bears a striking resemblance to a miniature Lamborghini Murcielago.

The ultra-light titanium case of the watch, measuring 50 mm x 45 mm x 25 mm, incorporates carbon fiber elements and a double-domed sapphire crystal the shape of which reminds a windscreen.

The Azimuth Twin Barrel Tourbillon is equipped with an exotic mechanical movement. It provides a 5-day power-reserve. A massive tourbillon is positioned at 6 o'clock. The tourbillon mechanism is provided with KIF shock absorption system. It is remarkable that the tourbillon center bridge is black gold-plated. The movement operates at a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour.

The timepiece
catches the glance by its avant-garde time display presented via a large central arm, rotating hour satellites and a minute scale.

The breath-taking Azimuth watch embraces the wrist with an interwoven black fibre strap featuring contrast stitching.
