Tourbillon Force Constante Academia

Who Says Science Isn't Sexy?


Only 25 will be madeOnly 25 will be madeCertainly not watchmaker Jérôme de Witt, whose Tourbillon Force Constante Academia is blazing new trails in technology and taste. Dewitt’s most recent masterpiece features a regulating system that guarantees a virtually unrivaled level of precision— the DW8003 mechanical movement. Patented by de Witt himself, this groundbreaking movement combines a tourbillon with an external constant force device that transmits regulating impulses of energy. These regular and identical bursts of force assure that hardly a second is lost in the measurement of time regardless of the watch’s positioning or winding. It sounds complicated because it is complicated. The barely perceptible movements of these tiny wheels, springs and barrels represent the successful integration of a century’s worth of watchmaking technology. As such, it’s only right that DeWitt allows you to get a rare look at this scientific achievement, framing the tourbillon and constant force device with portholes in the watch’s dial. The Tourbillon Force Constante Academia’s regal pedigree is rounded off with a platinum case, alligator strap and a limited manufacturing run of 25 pieces.
