Introducing The Franck Muller Giga Tourbillon: The World's Largest Tourbillon
Sunday Rewind Hands-On With The Incredible Richard Mille RM27-01 Rafa Nadal
Franck Muller's New 20mm "Giga Tourbillon"According to Franck Muller, you are looking at the largest tourbillon ever incorporated into a wristwatch. It's 20mm in diameter and takes up a solid 50% of this new watch.
The tourbillon cage is marked with the initials "FM", which stands for "Freaking Massive" and the hand-wound movement features a ten-day power reserve.
The case is made from white gold, although you'd never know it - it is treated with black PVD. Few details on this one are available, but it's definitely a piece to look out for. Price will be....a lot.
Disclaimer: "FM" actually stands for Franck Muller....
