Perrelet is the brand that bears the name of the watchmaker who, in 1777, invents the rotor di carica. This legacy is deeply felt within the company, which has made the visible rotor a distinctive feature of its production. Let's find out the latest version of this unusual watch, the Perrelet Turbines.
Perrelet Turbine: technique
I Perrelet Turbines are based on an ETA caliber, with a rather unusual modification: a second rotor, place below the clock face in glass. When the winding rotor oscillates, the front rotor moves with it, simulating the effect of a turbine by plane.
Perrelet Turbine: aesthetics
I Perrelet Turbines they are watches sports, massive in size. The choice to insert a second rotor makes the look of these watches quite modern, and little indulges in the dictates of classic elegance.
Perrelet Turbine: is it for me?
I Perrelet Turbines they are watches that differ greatly from the ordinary stylistic features of luxury watchmaking. The first impact, observing them, is one of disorientation: seeing the dial rotate with, underneath, the movement, is not usual. If you want a watch that will bring you the center of attention, and are willing to spend a not-so-low amount - prices start at five thousand euros for basic models - a Perrelet is probably for you.
