This model features a DW 8001 mechanical, manual winding movement, manufactured in Vandoeuvers. The Tourbillon complication compensates errors caused by the earth's gravity, in particular when the watch and its movement are regularly placed in a vertical position. The exclusive contribution made by the DeWitt brand to the Tourbillon movement resides in its mysterious winding mechanism which actuates the wheels and gear-trains, known as wolf-teeth. This remarkable movement features a 110-hour power reserve and can be admired through the transparent back protevted by a sapphire crystal. It is housed in the famous red gold Academia case, with bezel and middle section engraved with the exclusive DeWitt Imperial Columns.
The dial is replaced by a succession of revelations of hand-furned, azure blue plate and bridge, with Petits Paniers motifs.
Limited series of 50 pieces.
