The process of manufacture of this original and unique piece took several months; first prototypes of the dial ended up by damaged diamond grindstones and shards of this expensive material. Besides that, our manufacture was limited by the amount of this rare material as we had a high demands on the perfect and accurate processing. It happens to be a irreplaceable part of the universe, but after many successful tests we created first prototype of dials matching our demands.

Soon after the creation of the solar system, around 4,5 billion years ago, an object consisting of an alloy of iron and nickel had been created in the space- a meteorite. The meteorite has been travelling around our solar system ever since, up until around million years ago, when it fell on the Earth near the arctic circle, in the north of today’s Sweden, near the borderline with Finland. The collision broke this meteorite into pieces and scattered it around the area, which was big around 15 x 20 kilometres. First fragment was found as early as 1906, and more than 40 pieces has been found ever since. Meteorite was given the name Muonionalusta after the area of discovery, near the river Muonio.

Tourbillon is a mechanism that compensates for the influence of gravity on the accuracy of watch movements. It is a mechanical anchor mechanism, located inside a movable platform with centralized inertia, which rotates around its own axis once a minute, thereby providing a change in the position of the flywheel relative to the Earth’s core. This is one of the “high” clockwork complications of so-called Haute Horlogerie. It was invented by A. L. Breguet in 1795. Tourbillon watches are only offered by high-quality watch brands, and are indicative of the brand’s standards.
