Date and reserve indicators; a double-axis tourbillon with a cylindrical hairspring. Everything runs on 58 diamonds and 373 components. Oh, and it runs on a single, enormous barrel for fifty hours.

When it came out, it caused a real stir and it was released during what I call “the tourbillon wars”. During this time brand after brand began to release tourbillon escapement-based watches. This was interesting because the entire idea of a tourbillon was to be complicated and exclusive. Theoretically speaking (if you believed the hype) only a few top brands in the world could master a tourbillon and not everyone should have one. Though many did.
