To commemorate its 30th anniversary, the AHCI has organised a historical exhibition at the Musée International d'Horloge at La Chaux-des-Fonds from from the 6th of June to the 27th of September of 2015.

The exhibition narrates the development of independent watchmaking over the past 30 years, offering great insights into the evolution of horological design and technical constructions.

Sensational!... Is it reasonable to expect, Don, that we may see some pieces from the masters' 'back catalogues' - perhaps even pieces by former AHCI members? Now THAT would be an exhibition! Cheers, pplater.

Rudis Sylva Oscillateur Harmonieux - the instantly compensating 'tourbillon'

Recent years have brought about a great deal of novel engineering tools and with them an abundance of watchmaking novelties. Multi-axis tourbillons anyone? Crazy constructions - no limits?

Few however persevered the stormy post-2008 years, and I'd like to report on one of those fascinating constructions: The Rudis Sylva Oscillateur ... .
