If you thought Greubel Forsey would be trending toward more conservative designs after the brand s first sub-40-mm timepiece, the Balancier Contemporain, was unveiled at SIHH in January, then you thought wrong.
Today, one of watchmaking s leading independent brands is combining two of its most popular and recognized timepieces, the GMT and Quadruple Tourbillon, into one single bold model, the brand-new GMT Quadruple Tourbillon.
Fans of Greubel Forsey should be well aware of the company s experiments in the realm of tourbillon-enhanced timepieces as the first three of the brand s trademark Fundamental Inventions since the firm was founded in 2004 revolved around it.
