Robert Greubel and Stephen Forsey built their reputation on a simple idea: every technical solution should serve a purpose. Rather than adding complications for their own sake, their watches are designed to improve chronometric performance while showcasing an extraordinary level of traditional hand finishing.
The Double Tourbillon 30° is perhaps the best expression of that philosophy. After more than four years of development, Greubel Forsey created a patented mechanism in which a one-minute tourbillon is housed inside a second carriage rotating every four minutes. The inner tourbillon is inclined at 30 degrees, a configuration developed to reduce the effects of gravity on the regulating organ while creating a fascinating sense of depth and movement across the dial.
Just as impressive as the mechanics is the level of finishing applied to the movement. The open architecture of the calibre allows the hand-finished components to be fully appreciated, reflecting Greubel Forsey’s commitment to traditional craftsmanship and meticulous decoration. Housed in a red gold case, the present watch is numbered 34 of only 144 examples of the Double Tourbillon 30° produced across all metals, making it a particularly rare opportunity to acquire one of Greubel Forsey's most celebrated creations.

Swiss | 2004With the introduction of the Double Tourbillon 30 at Basel World in 2004, Robert Greubel and Stephen Forsey became major players in the world of haute horology and independent watchmaking. Their firm concentrates on high-end complicated movements with precision timekeeping and the highest quality hand finishing. They achieve this with movements featuring multiple tourbillons and inclined balance wheels — tourbillons designed for wristwatches. Forsey joined Greubel's team at Renaud & Papi SA, a high-complication specialist now part of Audemars Piguet. The team participated with Harry Winston and their Opus 6 project. In the span of 12 years, the firm has become highly sought-after by collectors for their innovative timekeeping and industrial design.
