Akribos Limited Edition Genuine Tourbillon Movement Sapphire Crystal Exhibition Back Men's Watch

Found in the most expensive Swiss watches, tourbillon movement is renowned for its complexity and the precision engineering required for its manufacture. Valued among watch collectors for its rarity and uniqueness, tourbillon watches are usually priced in the thousands of dollars.

The origin of timekeeping began in Greece. The horological timeline later shifted to the gates of Rome. What happens when you combine the history of both cultures into one wristwatch collection? The AKRIBOS XXIV Watch Collection integrates complicated mechanisms with bold, sophisticated designs to bring you a collection that is exact and precise, all twenty-four hours of the day.

Tourbillon movement, invented to counteract errors in timekeeping due to gravity, is displayed through an exhibition window on the Akribos AK493RG. Rotating on its own axis, the watch escapement accurately measures time with a micro-engineered complex system. Protected by sapphire crystal, the textured watch dial boasts gold-tone watch hands and Roman numeral hour markers. Moon phase and GMT subdials are placed at the 3 and 6 o'clock positions. A fine genuine leather strap with a deployment buckle combines with the rose gold-tone case for a truly sophisticated men's watch.
