About Tourbillon Watch

So what is all the controversy about tourbillon watch?

Since the price of high end mechanical wristwatches surged 300% in the late 1980s, the Swiss watch industry has settled down into a cozy price-fixing and myth-making cartel. The problem has been complicated more recently as companies have consolidated into groups with the power to control distribution channels and to fling increasing amounts of pixie-dust into the brand-dazzled eyes of consumers.

The result is that high end mechanical horology has gone backwards to maintain outdated products and working methods. Lack of imagination is hailed as tradition, while conservatism is paraded under the colors of creativity.

Tourbillonwatch.com represents a turning point in the watch industry. It offers to the public genuine handcrafted tourbillon watches that are affordable, at a fraction of the costs of tourbillon watches charged by other watch brands. Tourbillonwatch.com understands that consumers have come to expect regular advances in technology and styling at decreasing prices in every product they buy - including high end mechanical watches. As an authorized dealer for Tourous tourbillon watches, the watches we carry are manufactured with some of the same degree of precision, quality control, alluring beauty and elegance, and dedication as the other watch brands, with each piece requiring several months to complete.

Another first in the watch industry is that Tourous through tourbillonwatch.com, offers a complete Lifetime Warranty on all their watches. Most watches you purchase on Ebay or over Internet don't even come with a warranty and those that do may only offer a 30 day limited warranty and then you are left on your own. What happens when the watch stops ticking or you accidentally drop it? Buying a tourbillon watch without some kind of warranty is foolhardy and risky to say the least. The tourbillon movement is a highly complicated yet fragile piece of machinery composed of many tiny moving parts all synergistically working together to tell the time and by its very nature is susceptible to impairment/misadjustment due to the everyday abuses and the passage of time. Even the tourbillon movement in watches from famous watch brands such as Patek Philippe, Audemars Piguet, Girard-Perregaux, and Blancpain are all susceptible to damage, misadjustment, and running inaccuracies. Fees for regular servicing and adjustment of tourbillon watches typically run in excess of US $1,000.00 per watch. For just adjusting the watch, the entire tourbillon movement has to be disassembled, the individual parts cleaned in a solution, painstakingly reassembled back together, and then adjusted accordingly... and as they say, time is money. These are hidden fees that most people do not know about - but they do come with owning one of these fine watches.

Tourous understands these concerns and so they give the buying purblic peace of mind by offering them a Lifetime Warranty on the tourbillon watch - when the watch is sent back to us, we will repair/replace free of charge (less shipping) any defective movement due to material and manufacture defects and including those defects resulting from normal wear and tear, including lack of care, negligence, accidents (knocks, dents, crushing, broken crystal, etc.), incorrect use of the watch, and running inaccuracy of the watch. We know of no other watch company that extends this kind of complete coverage and Lifetime Warranty to their watches. Truly a first in the watch industry!

Our selection of watches change periodically so please come back and visit us from time to time.

We sell Tourous watches currently solely via the Internet websites tourbillonwatch.com and tourous.com both to assure the consumer of the timepieces' source and as a way to cut the retail cost by forgoing the middleman. Here are just a few of the things our customers are saying about us:

Thank you very much. Received the watch yesterday and my husband is very pleased with it.

In the 50ths I graduated from the Geneva Thechnicum and worked for Vacheron & Constantin, where I developed the anniversary 2003 movement, the thinnest watch at 1.6mm thick. While at thech., I designed for myself and made a tourbillon pocket watch using straight escapement. I never expected to see a wrist production tourbillon. Bravo to the designers. Since then I moved to USA to get involved in bigger and better things where for 45 years I was involved with space projects, with 2 recognition certificates signed by Neil Armstrong. Now retired 76 yrs. young person I admire the others successful works.

I have had the Silver Dial Tourous Tourbillion for three days and am currently wearing the watch in. I must say that I am very pleased with the overall craftmanship of the flying tourbillion movement, dial, case, caliber and saphire crystals front and back. The small diamond on the second indicator was a pleasent suprise. It also makes the seconds more readable as it reflects light and enhances the movement of the escapment. I am very pleased.

Just wanted to let you know the watch just arrived.
Very happy, was exactly as described.
Will leave + feedback shortly.
