«APOLLON» SYNCHRONISED TWIN TOURBILLON
The
function of the twin tourbillon is to avoid differences in resonance.
Synchronisation of the two tourbillons compensates for any mechanical
errors by one or the other. Representing an unprecedented technical
achievement, the magic of the twin tourbillon is expressed by the
two perfectly synchronised seconds hands spinning around their carriages
respectively located at 3 and 9 o’clock.
