Two works of art: JLC Duomètre Spherotourbillion and Omega De Ville Central Tourbillon
Team, Yesterday I got a nice angle to capture those beauties: Two horologic schools, two amazing watches. My oldest, the Omega De Ville Central Tourbillon Co-Axial. Classic case and amazing dial. A full picture of the Central Tourbillon. The SpheroTourbil...
Good question, Nilo. Two very different expressions of the Tourbillon, of course.
Aesthetically, I would go for the Omega. Mechanically, for the JLC. The Spherotourbillon is really magic.
Did you notice that the Omega carries also the Co-Axial Escapement?
Hard to choose one. Cheers, Nilo
You are a Central Tourbillon lover...
I was not expecting any other answer. Cheers, Nilo
For the parts that I can see...
The finishing is fine. Notice that the Omega Central Tourbillon is hand finished by the watchmakers of the Omega Atelier Tourbillon, where all Central Tourbillon watches are made. Cheers, Nilo
I choose Omega Central Tourbillon
Nilo, As their not my children, I dare to chose the Omega Central Tourbillon. It's more true to the original design brief for form and function. Prettier too... Of course, I may be biased from my history with Omega Central Tourbillon articles. Regards, MT...
Nice choice, the Omega ...
The Sphero is like "boldly go where no one has gone before" but the overall set (case included) of the Omega is something to pay attention. Cheers, Nilo
Definitely two iconic watches. The two are iconic pieces.
The Omega is a joy to behold and adding the co-axial makes it something special. There are few that mechanically match it though the Haldiman is also a joy. That said, the Sphero is magical to look at and has functions that make it truly a complete watch....
Living and learning ...
The Haldimann H1 - Flying Central is another amazing central Tourbillon. Cheers, Nilo
