mont blanc stainless steel 7069 pj 121212

I just finished an article for the about the joint venture between ejection seat builder and .So, what has this ejection seat to do with Bremont’s watches?

Limited Edition of 8 Pieces The case, in platinum or in 18kt white gold, measures 47mm. This new model has a large central axial minute-hand, a distinct hour display, an indicator for the time in a second time zone (with day/night display), a subdial for the seconds, a chronograph with a counter for 30 elapsed minutes, and a tourbillon with a balance larger than the tourbillon's rotating cage and positioned outside it. The balance has been separated from the cage to isolate it from the disturbing movements of the escapement. This separation made it possible to create the world's first tourbillon in which the rotating cage is smaller than the balance, which oscillates outside the cage and on a higher plane. This architecture also inspired the watch's name, which includes the Greek prefix exo, meaning outside. The balance in this unconventional configuration is borne between two jewels - it is neither cantilevered ("flying") nor is it borne between two bridges - while the tourbillon turns at the foot of the axis in a two-point bearing.
