TOURBILLOGRAPH TRACKMASTER G-BGP-001

The historical double victory, drivers’ and constructors’ world championship titles of the Brawn GP team, led Graham-London to celebrate this success with the same energy and vigour as shown by the whole Formula One team during the past championship. The time has come for Graham-London to associate a pioneering and sporting time instrument to celebrate this wonderful ultimate achievement.

Sophisticated, innovative, highly reliable and gutsy, the Tourbillograph Trackmaster G-BGP-001 is an exceptional column-wheel Chronograph which features a very unique and innovative “one-minute” Tourbillon specifically engineered for a “sports” chronograph function-watch. Limited to 100 pieces, and available in black and white or black and yellow dials, the Tourbillograph Trackmaster G-BGP-001 is the most vivid instrument developed in the vein of Grahams “high adrenaline” timepieces.

This radiant, uncommon Chronograph combines high-technological design and mechanics, to pay tribute to the Graham-London British heritage. The automatic movement associated with the Tourbillon perfectly demonstrates its prowess. The complete see-through construction is unique and provides a captivating look at the refined mechanism of the fabulous Tourbillon “machine”.

The off-centre construction of the Tourbillon has the advantage of being lighter and therefore more reliable with a better shock-resistance. The Tourbillon cage weighs in at only 0.485 grams and consists of 48 pieces. The Tourbillon’s high precision and durability is re-inforced by the unique “Coq” and upper bridge construction which are shaped in the tradition of English high precision timepieces of the 18th century.

The high frequency of the balance wheel of 28’800 alternations per hour allows better adjustment and guarantees more precise timekeeping than Tourbillons operating at a lower frequency. Our traditional touch of eccentricity added to the gutsy design and sturdy technique make the development of this unique and innovative timepiece possible. The double bridge construction on both sides, front and back, is more reliable as it settles the Tourbillon in a firm environment. Moreover, the re-inforced Incabloc® shock absorbing system which protects the spiral, the balance, the escapement wheel and the anchor, guarantees excellent shock resistance that is vital for a “sport” Tourbillon with chronograph function.

This ingenious timepiece, representing Graham-London’s knack for living creations, pays tribute to the car racing technicians and engineers. The brand’s technical skills and creation echoes the Formula One’s leading knowledge.
