Introducing ID Genève Unveils the Circular S Eclipse

The tourbillon is a complex mechanism found in some watches that compensates for the effects of gravity on the accuracy of the timepiece. It is characterized by a rotating axis that carries a set of hands and mechanical components.
Gravity, resulting from the Earth's gravitational force, can cause slight variations in the oscillation rate and accuracy of traditional mechanical watches. The tourbillon was designed to address this issue.
In a tourbillon, an independent rotating assembly is installed within the watch and rotates regularly around its own axis. This design compensates for the effects of gravity on the hands and watch components, thereby improving its accuracy.
