TURBINE The “Turbine” quickly became Perrelet’s most emblematic model, offering a visual effect unique in the world of fine watch-making. Over time this iconic timepiece has undergone a considerable evolution in terms of design and technical features.
Perrelet Swiss Luxury Since 1777 From the 1770s, Perrelet has concentrated on devising a system, which after an initial impulse, would continue to function indefinitely. In 1777, Swiss inventor Abraham-Louis Perrelet completed his revolutionary invention: the automatic self-winding movement.
