Andreas Strehler’s Trans-Axial Tourbillon regulates force before it fights gravity

The Trans-Axial Tourbillon combines two regulating ideas in one visible mechanism. Twin mainspring barrels feed a remontoir d’égalité, which releases a consistent quantity of energy every second, before that energy reaches a tourbillon mounted on the same axis. The architecture turns rate stability into the watch’s central visual subject.

Its manually wound movement runs at 3Hz and provides a stated 78-hour reserve. Strehler lists 250 components and 39 jewels, with a small jumping-seconds display and a differential power-reserve indication. The tonneau-shaped movement sits inside a 41 by 47.2mm case measuring 10mm thick.

Case choices include rose gold, platinum, steel and titanium. The official page lists CHF 185,000 for precious-metal versions and CHF 175,800 for steel or titanium, excluding tax. This is a desk-based model profile; availability and current delivery timing still require confirmation.
