Greubel Forsey presents the Tourbillon 24-Second Architectural Watch

Simply put, Greubel Forsey luxury does not manufacture traditional watches. From the case to the movement, it makes timepieces unlike anything you’ve seen from any other manufacturer. There is some kind of three-dimensional quality present in almost all Greubel Forsey pieces, integrating the movement components into the core design of the respective model, rather than treating the movement as a separate entity and placing it in the case and hiding it up behind the dial.

The case of the Greubel Forsey Tourbillon 24 Secondes Architecture perfect replica watches is made of titanium, following what the brand calls a “convex conical truncated case shape,” with a bezel that is smaller in diameter than its base.
