Always in tune with contemporary tastes and fashion trends, the Swiss Watchmaking Manufacture PERRELET, known for its timepieces with animated dials, is expanding its iconic Turbine collection.
The Bienne-based Maison introduces the “Turbine Carbon Black Edition”, sporting a “Total Black” style. Decked out in black from head to toe, this new fully meets the expectations of watch enthusiasts who love bold yet classic and refined designs. To achieve the “Total Black” look, the case, the dial, the iconic turbine, and the strap are dyed black.
With an improved water-resistance of 10atm/100m, compared to the traditional 5 atm/ 50m adopted by the Swiss Maison in previous collections, the central body of the case of the “Turbine Carbon Black Edition” is composed of polycarbonate and carbon fibre. On the other hand, the bezel and case back are made of matte black PVD-coated stainless steel.
The case, which has a 44 mm diameter and a thickness of 13.82 mm, has a sporty-chic look thanks to the smooth bezel and the distinctive fluted case middle. The flat matte bezel frames the black dial, which spins into action with the turbine. Perrelet’s undisputed signature, the dynamic 12-blade black anodised aluminium turbine starts rotating with every movement of the wrist.
“Turbine Carbon Black Edition” is powered by the calibre P-331-MH, an in-house automatic movement, beating at 28,800 vibrations per hour and supplying 42 hours of power reserve. Having successfully undergone Chronofiable and COSC certification tests, the calibre guarantees high precision and reliability. The stainless steel case back, with black PDV coating, features a sapphire crystal porthole that allows a view of the circular graining on the main plate and the open-worked oscillating weight embellished with the Maison’s logo.
The watch comes with a water-resistant black calfskin strap with a rubber lining and is delivered in a special “tactical box” accompanied by an additional rubber strap and a fastening tool.
