The 'Régulateur à Tourbillon' is the first Chronoswiss tourbillon of the series. An opening revealing a small cage that replaces the second hand is positioned at 6 o’clock. The cage contains the typical screw balance with corresponding coil and the balance part, as designed by inventor Abraham-Louis Breguet. The movement has two barrels, which gives the watch a power reserve of circa 72 hours. The dial is ornamented with two different guilloche patterns. The hours are displayed on a ring at 12 o’clock, while the minutes are indicated in the centre.
