Daniel Roth “Tourbillon Date Retrograde Double Face” Pièce Unique. Notes While undoubtedly riding a current wave of popularity and interpreted in all possible shapes and forms, the tourbillon in its noblest sense remains one of the most amazing horological accomplishments. Based on the principle devised byAbraham-Louis Breguet over 200 years ago which consists of placing the regulating organs within a mobile carriage which spins in order to compensate for the effects of gravity in various positions, this sophisticated mechanism continues to fascinate and appeal to lovers of fine watchmaking. Daniel Roth now offers the generous donors and collectors who will take part in the bidding on behalf of the Monegasque Association against Muscular Dystrophies a watch fitted with a double-face movement driving functions on both sides of the watch and thus involving exceedingly complex procedures in terms of assembling the movement, hands and dial, as well as casing up.
