What to know
The Autark Tourbillon Bubbles makes the winding system part of the dial-side spectacle. Its inverted K-TMR 2 automatic places the platinum micro-rotor, mainspring and flying tourbillon beneath three circular frames, viewed through Smokey Bourbon sapphire. Horage’s August 2026 announcement describes the result as a movement-engineering project, rather than simply a new dial treatment.
A Grade 5 titanium case measures 39.5mm across, less than 9mm thick and 48.3mm lug-to-lug. The movement provides a 72-hour reserve and uses silicon components, while the titanium tourbillon cage weighs 0.29 grams. An integrated titanium bracelet incorporates 10mm of adjustment. Horage specifies 100-metre water resistance and CHF 19,990; its shop currently anticipates deliveries beginning in November 2026.
