One of the most unique timepieces in Stuhrling Original’s collection is the Mirage Tourbillon. This incredible work of art is fully skeletonized, exposing the beautiful scrollwork style movement. Each and every watch in this limited edition timepiece is handcrafted in Switzerland by master watchmakers; every bit of detail comes from painstaking hard work. The case is constructed from 316L surgical grade stainless steel with a coin edge bezel, and the movement is protected by Krysterna crystals, a material made specifically for Stuhrling Original that is more shatter-resistant than sapphire. The Mirage Tourbillon comes equipped with a 22mm genuine crocodile strap.

Krysterna Crystals

Krysterna is proprietary to Stührling Original and refers to the crystals that are used in its timepieces. Krysterna stems from the eyewear industry and has more strength over a spread surface area than sapphire. Krysterna crystals are more scratch resistant than mineral crystals and more shatter resistant than sapphire crystals.

The Tourbillon Family is part of the Tourbillon Collection, which includes some of Stuhrling Original's most incredible horologic creations. These incredible timepieces feature elegant and creative case designs with fascinating dial configurations

Summary of Features

• Movement: Manual Mechanical Tourbillon Movement

The hand-wound mechanical movement is perhaps the most classical of movements. It operates exclusively by the daily (or sometimes more often) winding of the crown to power the mainspring (the “heart” of the movement). Unlike its automatic mechanical counterpart, this type of movement does not feature a rotor. The energy source is the mainspring (a spring coiled into a tight spiral) which is wound manually by the wearer twisting the crown, usually in a clockwise direction. As time progresses, the spring begins to uncoil, releasing the energy needed to activate the various wheels and make the movement tick. Without routine winding of the crown, the hand-wound mechanical movement will eventually lose power. Thus, mechanical hand-wound movements usually require daily winding. A hand-wound movement requires greater care than almost all other types of movements because once the mainspring is fully wound, additional tension may cause it to break.

• Complications: Two Hand Tourbillon Movement
• Dial: Full Skeletonized Dial
• Hands: Leaf-Style Hands
