*** PLEASE NOTE ALL TOURBILLON WATCHES ARE "MADE TO ORDER" AND SHIPPING MAY TAKE 14-30 BUSINESS DAYS TO WORLDWIDE
IT'S NOT A STANDARD MECHANICAL WRIST WATCH, IT'S A REAL 1 MINUTE FLYING TOURBILLON !
You can choose which watch face you want from the pictures.
This real Tourbillon watch is not just a watch, it's a unique piece of art !
Handmade Unisex Womens Mans Genuine Black Leather Retro Vintage Style Silver/Gold Steampunk Skeleton Leather Wrist Watch with a full skeleton pattern. All gears Move in the lovely dance of time.
I just love looking at all the gears move ( glass is visible from both sides of the watch ), and combined with a Unique Personalized Handmade Genuine Leather Band that wraps around, making it a dynamic piece of art on your wrist to show it off !
I will cut, dye, and personally customize the leather band to be the color you want it to be, the width you want it to be, and the style you want it to be ( double/triple wrap ). Don't like the Wrap around style ? No problem, i will make a traditional genuine leather band just for you in any color you choose.
When you look at this fully skeletonized piece of art ( watch), you get a great view of the mechanics and all the gears moving inside in what I personally call “ The Dance of Time”. I sometimes watch it just for fun.
This kind of watches are designed to be a “show watch”. It will suit anyone on a casual workday or a business meeting. You will always get compliments for having such a cool looking watch.
It would look lovely on you, don't you think ?
This unique high quality piece of art is the best combination of design and quality .

A little more info about TOURBILLON WATCH MOVEMENTS :
A tourbillon is an addition to the mechanics of a watch escapement. Developed around 1795 by the French-Swiss watchmaker Abraham-Louis Breguet from an earlier idea by the English chronometer maker John Arnold a tourbillon aims to counter the effects of gravity by mounting the escapement and balance wheel in a rotating cage, to negate the effect of gravity when the timepiece (and thus the escapement) is stuck in a certain position.
Originally an attempt to improve accuracy, tourbillons are still included in some expensive modern watches as a novelty and demonstration of watchmaking virtuosity. The mechanism is usually exposed on the watch's face to show it off.
Mechanics of the Tourbillon
Gravity has a direct effect on the most delicate parts of the escapement, namely the pallet fork, balance wheel and hairspring. Most notably is the hairspring, which functions as a regulator for the escapement and is thus the most sensitive part to any exterior effects, such as magnetism, shocks, temperature, as well as inner effects such as pinning positions (inner collet), terminal curve, and heavy points on the balance wheel.
Many different inventions have been developed to counteract these problems. Temperature and magnetism have all but been eliminated as problems with new materials. Shocks have much less effect today than at Breguet's time thanks to stronger and more resistive materials. The escapement still gets deregulated at the moment of the shock, but the hairspring does not get as easily deformed from shocks as before.
Gravity comes into play on the remaining effects. One of them is easily taken away, namely heavy points on the balance wheel. This leaves pinning point and terminal curve. Both of these add a lot of variation to the regulation of a watch, depending on how it is assembled and regulated by the watchmaker and positioned in the watch and later by the owner. As the balance wheel goes from one extreme position to the other in its swing back and forth, the hairspring's coils extend and contract a great deal, leading to problems that are extremely hard to counteract. Some have tried using hairsprings that are cylindrical or even spherical instead of flat as is prominent today. Some variations of Breguet's overcoil have been developed to counteract the effects of the terminal curve. As for the pinning point, Grossmann, Berthoud, Breguet, Caspari and Leroy[1] tried many different possibilities, but not much was gained.
The biggest obstacle for a watchmaker regulating a watch, even today, is getting a similar result from the escapement no matter the position it is kept in. This has been made infinitely easier with accurate timing machines which give instantaneous timing results, whereas in Breguet's time all that watchmakers had was another watch to regulate from. So, results were not very exact and it could take weeks to get them. Effects of gravity on an escapement can have quite significant effects with slight variations of position. Even if a pocket watch was most of the time in a breast pocket, the exact position could still vary over 45°. A tourbillon quite neatly takes away this problem. The watchmaker now only needs to regulate for 3 different positions, instead of 6 like before. Those are two horizontal positions, dial up and down, and four vertical positions, crown at 12, 3, 6 and 9 o'clock.
A tourbillon most often makes one complete revolution per minute, which has no effect in the two horizontal positions, but makes all the difference in the 4 vertical positions, since even if a watch is stationary in a random vertical position, the tourbillon makes the escapement spin around its own axis, effectively cancelling out the effects of gravity of each of the 4 generalized positions. Even today with new materials and improved theories, it is nearly impossible to regulate a watch so it keeps the same time in all positions.
The tourbillon is considered to be one of the most challenging of watch mechanisms to make] although technically not a complication itself and is valued for its engineering and design principles. The first production tourbillon mechanism was produced by Breguet for Napoleon in one of his carriage clocks (travel clocks of the time were of considerable weight, typically weighing almost 200 pounds).
Rather than being supported by a bridge, or cock, at both the top and bottom, the flying tourbillon is cantilevered, being only supported from one side.
I just love this watch :) It looks so unique ! ART AT ITS BEST !
You will get so many compliments - GUARANTEED !
If you would like some other color of leather band please let me know. You will get the exact same watch like in the first picture unless you specify otherwise.
There are many other double strap watches : Silver/Gold Star of David ( Jewish ) pattern watch, Silver/Gold Heart pattern watch, Silver/Gold Butterfly Pattern watch, Cute sheep pattern watch,unique Cat pattern and many others. You are welcome to visit my store for other unique gifts.
* I will make a custom design especially for you if you would like just send me a message and ask.
Enjoy your new watch !
