]]> H. Moser & Cie Opens First U.S. Brand Boutique in Silicon Valley at The Villa Menlo Park https://canada.amilcarmagazine.com/h-moser-cie-opens-first-u-s-brand-boutique-in-silicon-valley-at-the-villa-menlo-park/ Sat, 01 Mar 2025 13:48:00 +0000 https://usa.amilcarmagazine.com/?p=932281

H. Moser & Cie, the independently owned, small watchmaker gaining notice with collectors for its bold, unconventional design and mechanical ingenuity, has chosen Silicon Valley’s The Villa Menlo Park development as the site of the brand’s first U.S. watch boutique.

To mark this important milestone, H. Moser & Cie unveils its new boutique exclusive Streamliner Tourbillon Skeleton timepiece to the world for the first time at the brand’s new Silicon Valley store, presented in partnership with Stephen Silver Fine Jewelry—now open at 500 El Camino Real in Menlo Park, California.

The Villa Menlo Park development realizes the vision set forth by Jared and Stephen Silver, longtime Bay Area retailers and pioneers in the independent watch category. They set out to create a new Silicon Valley cultural hub, with an emphasis on discovery, fine craftsmanship, quiet sophistication, and enriching, curated experiences. The new venue houses world-class dining and retail destinations, including the new H. Moser & Cie boutique, reflecting the growing importance of the American market for the brand and the watchmaking industry as a whole.

The H. Moser & Cie boutique at The Villa Menlo Park offers visitors the opportunity to discover the watchmaker’s rare and remarkable timepieces in a resolutely modern environment. The brand’s first stand-alone U.S. retail boutique—its fourth worldwide—artfully interprets both the brand’s philosophy and its traditional watchmaking craft through a refined, minimalist lens.

The interior exhibits understated lines, refined industrial materials, and carefully composed lighting, inviting watch lovers to rediscover the very essence of the watchmaker’s art, stripped of any artifice. Within its walls, boutique visitors will discover one of the world’s largest selections of rare H. Moser & Cie timepieces in a single location, including the new boutique exclusive Streamliner Tourbillon Skeleton timepiece, one of only seventeen such timepieces available in the world.

Edouard Meylan, H. Moser & CEO, says : “The opening of our boutique in the San Francisco Bay Area marks a key milestone in our international development strategy. This iconic region, synonymous with innovation and creativity, perfectly embodies the values that drive H. Moser & Cie.: boldness, a pioneering spirit, and a passion for artisanal excellence.”

We could not be happier than to have the presence of H. Moser & Cie. at The Villa Menlo Park. The brand is one of the most important forces in modern watch design and a flag bearer for independent watchmaking,” says Jared Silver, President of Stephen Silver Fine Jewelry, and a key driver of The Villa Menlo Park development. “H. Moser is rapidly growing its base of collectors in Silicon Valley, and now they will have an immersive home to experience the many different aspects of the company.”

Introducing the Streamliner Tourbillon Skeleton Boutique Exclusive Edition

To mark this milestone occasion, H. Moser & Cie. unveils a boutique exclusive version of its Streamliner Tourbillon Skeleton – revealed to the world first at the brand’s new Silicon Valley boutique. The limited edition of seventeen timepieces was designed to offer unrivalled mechanical excellence and a unique visual experience – and marks a new step in the manufacture’s quest for perfection. Limited to the brand’s own boutiques and Moserland concepts, this yellow gold timepiece elevates the contemporary fluid aesthetic of the Streamliner collection whilst embodying the very essence of minimalism in the watchmaker’s art.

One of the most striking characteristics of this piece is its transparency, and perfectly symmetrical design. Faithful to its philosophy of “remove to better reveal”, H. Moser & Cie. has skeletonized every component, eliminating any superfluous material to enhance the stark, fascinating beauty of the mechanism. The skeletonization process results in a refined, luminous piece, highly transparent with incredible depth that reveals all the beauty of the watch mechanism, usually hidden from view. The barrel, which has also been hollowed out, offers a view of the spring, allowing the wearer to check that it is wound correctly. You can even see through the watch to the solid gold rotor, which has also been skeletonized. Particular attention has been paid to symmetry, ensuring the proportions are perfectly balanced. The minimalist finishes are modern, adorning the anthracite main plate and bridges with drawn strokes combined with precise beveling.

At the heart of this timepiece is a one-minute flying tourbillon which seems to float weightlessly, driven by the caliber HMC 814, an automatic movement equipped with a Straumann® double hairspring, designed, and produced in-house by Precision Engineering AG. This innovation reduces friction and increases accuracy, ensuring a perfect symbiosis between aesthetics and technical performance.

The 40 mm cushion case and its integrated bracelet are both made from yellow gold and echo the signature ergonomic curves of the Streamliner collection. This pairing ensures optimal comfort and a fluid design which sits perfectly on the wrist. With this exclusive model, the Streamliner Tourbillon Skeleton Boutique Edition in yellow gold stands as a bold declaration of style, aimed at knowledgeable watch lovers who are seeking the perfect union between form and function.

Discover this rare timepiece — one of only seventeen in the world — and more at the H. Moser & Cie. Menlo Park boutique on the ground floor of The Villa Menlo Park, located at 500 El Camino Real, in Menlo Park, California.

The store is open to the public and by private appointment, Monday-Saturday, 11 a.m. to 6 p.m.

]]> Arnold & Son Unveils Two New Perpetual Moon 38 Red Gold Timepieces at Geneva Watch Days Event https://canada.amilcarmagazine.com/arnold-son-unveils-two-new-perpetual-moon-38-red-gold-timepieces-at-geneva-watch-days-event/ Thu, 29 Aug 2024 18:40:07 +0000 https://usa.amilcarmagazine.com/?p=931250

Arnold & Son welcomes two new dial variations to the Perpetual Moon 38 collection.  The Swiss watchmaker revealed the two new limited-edition moon phase timepiece models at Geneva Watch Days – including a limited edition of 88 pieces in blue aventurine glass and a 28-piece limited edition in sunray brushed grey. With these new designs, Arnold & Son exhibits its mastery of color, its sense of texture, and its taste for premium materials, telling a nocturnal narrative that brings together the grey of a cliff, the iridescent white of the moon, the inky black blue of a starry sky, and the precise astronomical moon phase of the A&S1612 caliber.

From the outset, Perpetual Moon 38 was destined to become a full-fledged collection. While distinct from its larger 41.5 mm diameter Perpetual Moon cousin, the 38 mm model shares the unwavering quality, precision, and high-level finish associated with the Arnold & Son name.

Measuring 38 mm in diameter and 10.44 mm thick, the Perpetual Moon 38 Red Gold case is brought to life from a block of red gold (5N). Its bezel, four lugs, and crown are polished, shining under the cold light of the moon. The blue aventurine dial, constellated with metallic particles, blends into a celestial vault sculpted from the same glass. The “cliff grey” dial, in a warm, sunray-brushed grey, boasts an ever-shifting moiré effect under a grained matte midnight blue sky.  

These two limited editions of Perpetual Moon 38 Red Gold are home to a huge moon phase: a luminescent disc of mother-of-pearl illuminates the sky, framed by the constellations of Cassiopeia and Ursa Major.  

A 38 MM PICTURE OF PRECISION

Perpetual Moon 38 Red Gold transposes stringent watchmaking requirements of Arnold & Son into a smaller, more slender case. The Arnold & Son Swiss manufacturer has designed an entirely new caliber, the smallest in its collection, and dedicated it to Perpetual Moon 38.

At 30 mm, the A&S1612 caliber has been sized to fit the diameter of the case. The hand-wound movement continues Arnold & Son’s tradition of calibers with long power reserves, reaching up to 90 hours.  

WAXING MOON, WANING MOON

The star complication of the A&S1612 caliber is its moon phase. Perpetual Moon 38 showcases a large moon disc. The different crescents occupy the large aperture between 10 and 2 o’clock, with the form of their cut-out faithfully recreating the appearance of the moon.  

True to its tradition of precision watchmaking, Arnold & Son has given this moon phase an accuracy of 122 years. Continuously rising, it will take more than a century for this moon to lag one day behind the real one in our skies.  

About Arnold & Son

Arnold & Son eschews commonly expected conventions to create singular collections imbued with English heritage. It thus unites the exacting standards of Swiss watchmaking with a unique aesthetic.

Arnold & Son is named after John Arnold, a renowned English watchmaker of the 18th century. The golden age of maritime explorations and discoveries ushered this precision into a new technical ideal – determining longitude at sea. Its immediate corollary was the identification of local time, which changed constantly as the observer moved along an east-west axis. Astronomy, chronometry, and what we now call world time are thus inextricably linked within one and the same question, to which John Arnold and his son devoted their lives, their art, and their genius.

This is how these three dimensions – Astronomy, Chronometry and World Time – have come to be embodied in the House’s contemporary timepieces. Echoes of John Arnold’s inventions and preoccupations, these principles represent the foundations on which the Arnold & Son collections are based. The twenty-plus calibers presented to date by Arnold & Son have all been designed and developed in-house and produced by its sister manufacturer, La Joux-Perret in La Chaux-de-Fonds (Switzerland). This independence and creativity demonstrate the House’s ability to perpetuate John Arnold’s exceptional inventions.

EXCLUSIVITY

Arnold & Son’s collections are produced in limited series and distributed worldwide through carefully selected retail partners. 

HERITAGE

As a renowned watchmaker, John Arnold produced some of the most accurate marine chronometers of the 18th century. He won several awards from the Bureau des Longitudes, spurring him on in his research into timekeeping. He filed many patents as an inventor, including one for a compensation balance featuring a bimetallic balance spiral and another for a helical balance spring with terminal curves. Arnold also produced simplified chronometer design principles that permitted mass production of these timepieces, many of which were made available to His Majesty’s Royal Navy, making John Arnold one of its principal suppliers. One of his least known but most significant contributions was the modern definition of the term ‘chronometer’, which today refers to a high-precision timepiece driven by a movement that has passed an accuracy inspection carried out by an official neutral body.

AUTHENTICITY

A fine watchmaking House stands out for its mastery of the classics. Arnold & Son has based its identity on its ability to produce great watchmaking complications linked to John Arnold’s heritage and based on three principles: Astronomy, Chronometry and World Time. These complications include tourbillon, true seconds, dual time zones and moon phase. Lastly, the long-lasting power reserves pay homage to Arnold’s marine chronometers, which also benefit from impressive autonomy. Arnold & Son’s twenty or so calibres have been conceived, designed, developed, machined, decorated, assembled, and adjusted by its sister Manufacture, La Joux-Perret. This independence demonstrates the House’s ability to perpetuate John Arnold’s exceptional inventions.

AESTHETICS

Arnold & Son is known for its timepieces with a unique style that can be easily recognized. The movements’ architecture, the continuous pursuit of multiaxial symmetry, and the skillfully crafted dials, often featuring rare gemstones and minerals, are all in line with the brand’s manufactured calibers, ranging from a single barrel to the full range of grande complication calibers.

]]> Ritmo Mundo Reveals New Pegasus Tourbillon – the Brand’s First Ever Tourbillon Model https://canada.amilcarmagazine.com/ritmo-mundo-reveals-new-pegasus-tourbillon-the-brands-first-ever-tourbillon-model/ Mon, 26 Aug 2024 19:13:00 +0000 https://usa.amilcarmagazine.com/?p=931271

Compelling Style, Performance, and Value Unite in New Ritmo Mundo Pegasus Tourbillon, One of the World’s Most Affordable Tourbillon Watches Equipped with a Sapphire Crystal Case.

American watch brand Ritmo Mundo has introduced a new tourbillon complication to its Pegasus Collection – the first tourbillon watch model ever released by Ritmo Mundo in the brand’s 22 – year history. The crystal-clear tourbillon watch also upgrades the Pegasus models with a new, full synthetic sapphire crystal case top, designed to take the Pegasus watch collection to even greater heights. The Ritmo Mundo Pegasus Tourbillon retails for $12,900 USD, making it one of the most attainable sapphire case tourbillon watches on the global watch market today.

When Ritmo Mundo revealed the first Pegasus three-hand automatic watch model in February of 2024, the move signaled the L.A.-based watch brand’s intention to step into a new chapter with daring innovations, a bold aesthetic, and elevated product offerings. The sporty and striking Pegasus Tourbillon, with its hand-built tourbillon and sapphire crystal case top, reaffirms the brand’s commitment to excellence, as Ritmo Mundo soars into a new era, leading with disruptive yet attainable watches designed to answer savvy modern collectors’ needs and desires.For those in search of the perfect starter tourbillon watch or edgy everyday timepiece, the Pegasus Tourbillon is a clear winner,” says Ritmo Mundo brand founder Ali Soltani, continuing: “The Ritmo Mundo Pegasus Tourbillon is for all the collectors who were priced out of the market. The Pegasus Tourbillon’s solid build, enticing value, striking design, and undisputed value finally bring that grail tourbillon sapphire watch within reach.”

A Clear Winner – Introducing the Pegasus Tourbillon

With the Pegasus Tourbillon, Ritmo Mundo revisits the eye-catching, beveled case design of the original Automatic model in a 42 mm format, while introducing two key upgrades. First, the Pegasus Tourbillon upgrades the transparent case top to full synthetic sapphire crystal. Secondly, the brand introduces the first-ever tourbillon movement in any Ritmo Mundo collection. The hand-assembled tourbillon movement, with its gold-plated barrel, offers a frequency of 28,800/hour, and a three-day, 72-hour power reserve.

The case bottom remains the ultra-durable and scratch-resistant transparent glass material first featured in the Pegasus automatic. This groundbreaking glass material still stands the test of durability, ranking 7 on the Mohs hardness scale – comparable to many precious, hard-wearing gemstones. The clear, exceptionally durable Pegasus case offers a panoramic view of the tourbillon movement as well as its mineral-reinforced glass mirror dial and metal dial ring, accented in a choice of turquoise, blue, or black. 

The timepiece’s elements are seamlessly assembled layer by layer, with the fully transparent sapphire crystal case top affixed to the mineral-reinforced glass mirror dial and separate transparent crystal case back below by means of stainless-steel screws. The ergonomically engineered case clocks in at 11.5 mm thick.

Built to Wear, Built to Last

Ethereal appearance aside, the durable, scratch-resistant Pegasus Tourbillon shines as an everyday watch. The watch’s luminous, pointer-style hands ensure legibility by day or night. It elevated detailing also includes a crystal crown and a fluorine rubber strap equipped with a 316L stainless steel clasp pin buckle clasp. Pegasus Tourbillon is also corrosion, mold, and moisture-resistant thanks to its sealed back cover, and its 3-day, 72-hour power reserve ensures it is long-wearing.

The Pegasus collection launch marks an inflection point for the long-established L.A.-based watch brand. The company has set its sights on the future and plans to archive much of the preexisting Ritmo Mundo product catalog to focus on modern, innovative, and attainable luxury timepiece collections – leading the way with Pegasus. 

According to Soltani, “The new Pegasus Tourbillon is a testament to Ritmo Mundo’s maturation and development after 22 years in business. As we look to the future – ‘Ritmo Mundo 2.0’ – we are committed to evolving and pushing the limits in our goal to make high-end watchmaking innovations and finishes more accessible.”

ABOUT ALI SOLTANI x Ritmo Mundo

Ritmo Mundo watch founder and luxury retail expert Ali Soltani has already lived many lives. Persian born,raised in Beverly Hills, California, and educated at UCLA and Loyola Law School, Soltani began his career as a lawyer specialized in business.

Soltani went on to help his family acquire and operate one of Rodeo Drive’s most venerable longtime luxury retailers, David Orgell – his success leading himto become one of the youngest Presidents of the Beverly Hills Chamber of Commerce in the organization’s history.

Armed with hard-earned business prowess, an enviable network, and wealth of consumer insights gleaned working at one of North America’s leading luxury jewelry andwatch salons, Soltani was perfectly positioned to establish his own watch brand. And so, Ritmo Mundo was born.

Ritmo Mundo means the “rhythm of the world”– a fitting moniker for a global watch brand born in Hollywood and crafted in Switzerland and Italy. Ritmo Mundo is a result of Soltani’s vision to fill an untapped market niche that speaks to a new generation of informed watch lovers in search of compelling timepieces that offer innovation, quality, and value in equal measure.

The brand’s attractive range of fashion-forward products are designed with “watch wardrobing” in mind – offering consumers abroader range of attainable watch styling options to expand their timepiece wardrobes. The brand’s headquarters near the epicenter of Hollywood – together with Soltani’s extensive network off ormer clients and friends –quickly attracted a glittering array of star collectors and fans from the entertainment and sports world.

Old Hollywood icon Elizabeth Taylor inspired the design of the very first Ritmo Mundo watch, and she went on to become a loyal Ritmo Mundo client.

Other stars whose wrists have sported a Ritmo Mundo watchover the years have included Beyonce, Jennifer Lopez, Denzel Washington, Michael Strahan, Sarah Jessica Parker, Gwen Stefani, Linsday Lohan, Quincy Jones, President Bill Clinton, Michael Jackson, Joel McHale, and Samuel L. Jackson, to name just a few.The brand’swatches havealso figuredprominently in film and television, including American Idol, CSI Miami, Snakes on aPlane, Ocean’s Thirteen, and many more.

Ritmo Mundo continues to evolve, refining its vision and purpose – as Soltani looks to stay one beat a head– not following trends, but making them. Soltani continues to be the creative forcebehind the brand, leading Ritmo Mundo into a new era with the Pegasus Collection –with many more new collections to be revealed.

OMEGA’s partnership with the crew began 30 years ago, during the 1995 America’s Cup, when it collaborated with the legendary Sir Peter Blake, then captain of Team New Zealand.

For the brand with legendary precision, the timing was, once again, perfect: the New Zealanders won the trophy that year, and three times since, in 2000, 2017 and 2021.   

This partnership, which continues and evolves today, has inspired the creation and launch of some of OMEGA’s most impressive watches, such as the Seamaster Planet Ocean Deep Black ETNZ Edition unveiled this year, which combines deep black with the vibrant turquoise of the Emirates Team New Zealand logo.

For OMEGA President and CEO Raynald Aeschlimann, this relationship is a symbiotic one: “Winning a competition like the America’s Cup requires passion, focus, determination, teamwork and a willingness to embrace the most promising new technologies. These are qualities that we know well, and that are equally essential to watchmaking and sports timing. But beyond these values, we share above all a true friendship.”  

This year, the two opponents will compete on sailboats that literally have wings: high-tech AC75 monohulls that can exceed the crazy speed of 50 knots, or 100 km/h, thanks only to the power of the wind.

Sentiments echoed by Grant Dalton, Managing Director of America’s Cup Events and Emirates Team New Zealand: “To win, a crew needs to be supported by a united team. OMEGA has been an integral part of Team New Zealand for many years, through victory and defeat. We are delighted to be reuniting with the brand for this new adventure here in Barcelona, ​​and to try to make history by becoming the first to win the America’s Cup three times in a row.”

OMEGA is proud to support Emirates Team New Zealand and wishes the entire crew the best of luck in taking on this extraordinary and exciting challenge.

In 2004, in the midst of a renaissance, the Bugatti brand revolutionized the world of automotive performance and luxury with a hypersports car developing 1001 hp: the Veyron. The first 1000 hp-plus tourer was followed in 2016 by another engineering marvel, so ambitious that it challenged all performance expectations: the Chiron, the world’s first hypersports car to develop 1500 hp. What do they have in common? The most advanced automotive engine in existence: an 8.0-liter W16 with quadruple turbo. Now, 20 years after launching the hypersport segment, Bugatti is totally redefining the concept with a completely revamped engine and platform. Welcome to the Bugatti Tourbillon.

A NAME, A PHILOSOPHY

Mate Rimac, Bugatti CEO, said: “The development of the Bugatti Tourbillon has been guided at every stage by the 115-year history of Bugatti and by the words of Ettore Bugatti himself. His sacred formulas – ‘If it’s comparable, it’s not Bugatti anymore’ and ‘Nothing is too beautiful’ – have guided my steps, as well as those of the engineers and designers charged with bringing to life the exciting new era of Bugatti hypersports.”

“Legends such as the Type 57SC Atlantic, recognized as the most beautiful car in the world, the Type 35 – the most successful of all time – and the Type 41 Royale – one of the most ambitious luxury cars to date – are the three pillars that inspired us. Beauty, performance and luxury are the key words guiding the design of the Tourbillon, a hypersports car whose elegance, emotion and luxury surpass all that has been done to date. Incomparable, quite simply. And like those icons of the past, we didn’t just think of it for the present, or even just for the future, but for all eternity.

Mate Rimac, CEO of Bugatti

The Tourbillon

For the first Bugatti in over 20 years not to be powered by the W16 engine, the brand has departed from the tradition of naming models after legendary Bugatti drivers. Thus, its name – the Tourbillon – was chosen to perfectly express its character. A French word and a subtle nod to Bugatti’s French heritage and its headquarters in Molsheim, the Tourbillon takes its name from the watchmaking invention of a Swiss genius who lived in France in 1801. Totally original, this unparalleled creation – both beautiful and complex – counteracted the effects of the earth’s gravity on the timepiece to ensure highly accurate timekeeping. And 200 years later, it’s still considered the pinnacle of watchmaking.

It’s this sense of mechanical timelessness that lies at the heart of the project that gave birth to the Bugatti Tourbillon. For a hypersports car destined to sit proudly on the lawns of the concours d’élégance of this century and the centuries to come, technology can easily fall into disuse – especially large digital displays – which is why for Bugatti it’s important to incorporate as many timeless components as possible. As a result, the Tourbillon uses timeless design and engineering techniques, including all-analog instruments made by Swiss watchmakers, and finished with the same care and attention as the world’s greatest timepieces. Just as these objects become family treasures handed down from generation to generation, the Tourbillon is a hypersport for eternity.

DESIGN AND AERODYNAMICS

Like all Bugatti models of the modern era, the Tourbillon is “shaped by speed”. To be able to travel at over 245 Mph, every surface, every air intake and every edge must be perfectly polished, to ensure that every detail is not only aerodynamic, but also beneficial to the vehicle’s thermodynamics. This is the guiding idea behind the Tourbillon, which then takes shape around four design elements inspired by the brand’s history: the horseshoe grille, the Bugatti line, the central ridge and the two-tone combination.

Frank Heyl, Bugatti Design Director, said : “The genius of Ettore and Jean Bugatti’s creations lies in their aerodynamics, innovation and unchanging beauty. We draw our inspiration from the Bugatti Type 35, whose silhouette was guided by the shape of the horseshoe grille, which tapered back into a streamlined fuselage. We also drew inspiration from the Type 57SC Atlantic – whose letter “S” stands for “Low” – by lowering the front end, the roofline and the driver’s position, creating that wonderful posture and dreamlike proportions. We felt it was essential to position the volumes in such a way that they were functional and supported the extreme proportions of the hypersport. Lowered, it appears wider, and the rims are highlighted. The result is an impression of muscular tension, of a posture ready to pounce. Every design decision has been aimed at creating a sensation of speed, even when the hypersportive is stationary.

While the aesthetics and proportions of this new Bugatti are strikingly beautiful, the fact remains that every surface and every airflow has been carefully studied, firstly to balance the colossal aerodynamic forces exerted on a vehicle travelling at over 245 Mph, and secondly to reconcile the thermodynamic requirements of a V16 engine, electric motors and an eminently powerful battery.

Drawing on more than 20 years of know-how from the Veyron and Chiron, the Tourbillon boasts a host of patented technologies. The perfect balance of forces generated by these innovations keeps the rear spoiler in the retracted position at peak speeds. Its function is to increase downforce at low speeds and act as an air brake to enhance stability during deceleration.

This aerodynamic balance is largely the result of the new diffuser concept, which begins its ascent just behind the passenger compartment, almost halfway up the vehicle, at an optimum angle, ensuring the Tourbillon’s perfect stability. The diffuser is built around an all-new anti-collision concept that is fully integrated into the structure of the diffuser itself. This makes it both highly effective and virtually invisible, enabling the open design of the rear end.

At the heart of the Tourbillon’s design philosophy lies the emblematic horseshoe, the starting point of all the hypersport’s lines, where the volume of the central fuselage takes shape. On either side of the hypersportive, air flows under the headlights to increase the flow into the side air intakes. This complex interplay of air flows is also evident in the front-end design. While retaining the dimensions of a sculpted front end, it ingeniously houses a highly efficient cooling system that guides air through and then out of the front hood, increasing downforce while ingeniously integrating a spacious trunk between the two radiators.

Two sophisticated, power-operated dihedral doors not only allow easy entry into the vehicle, but also mark the opening in spectacular fashion. They can be opened and closed in three different ways: from the key, via the opening button just below the Bugatti line, or the one on the center console.

INTERIOR 

Since carmakers began integrating digital and touch screens into their models, the innovations have been such that in just ten years, these technologies already seem obsolete. The design of the interior was guided by a philosophy of timelessness, imagining the Tourbillon on the lawns of concours d’élégance not only in ten years’ time, but more importantly in 100 years’ time. Inspired by the world of watchmaking, in which wristwatches more than a century old can still be worn and used today, while integrating perfectly with modern fashion and lifestyle, the engineers and designers created an authentic analog experience in the cabin.

The centerpiece – the dashboard instruments designed and crafted with the expertise of Swiss watchmakers – takes horological inspiration to the extreme. Comprising more than 600 parts, crafted in titanium and incorporating precious stones such as sapphire and ruby, the instrument panel is designed to a maximum tolerance of 50 microns – the smallest being 5 microns – and weighs just 700 grams.

This complex engineering masterpiece remains the focal point of the driving experience, around which the steering wheel rotates – a configuration known as the “fixed hub steering wheel”. Thanks to this ingenious concept, the Tourbillon driver enjoys an unobstructed view of his or her instruments, whatever the steering angle.

The center console combines crystal glass and aluminum, revealing the intricate workings of all the buttons and the engine start lever. The development of this glass required 13 separate stages, to ensure perfect transparency, extreme resistance and optimum safety in the event of an accident. The aluminum parts are anodized and milled from a single block of metal, while the knurled aluminum buttons sit at the heart of a complex mechanism fully visible beneath the crystal glass – developed entirely in-house. Igniting the all-new naturally-aspirated V16 engine and electric motor is a physical experience, a nod to the rituals of historic automobiles that required pulling to start and pushing to stop the engine.

However, a high-definition digital screen – which the driver can make appear at will – displays vehicle data and offers several connectivity options. The vehicle’s only screen – which displays vehicle data and offers several connectivity options – remains completely hidden, unless the driver wishes it to appear. A highly refined mechanism allows the touchscreen to be deployed from the top of the center console – in portrait mode for the rearview camera in just two seconds, and in landscape mode in five seconds.

As with the exterior, every decision concerning the interior has been made with ultimate performance in mind, without compromising on practicality or comfort. The seats, for example, are attached to the monocoque to be as light and low as possible. And to ensure a comfortable riding position whatever the rider’s size, the pedals can be moved forward and back by means of an electric control.

The result is a spacious interior ideal for long journeys and daily commutes. As for the audio system, it dispenses with traditional speakers and woofers, opting instead for an advanced system that uses exciters placed on the door panels and throughout the vehicle, where the interior panels act as speakers. This system is lighter and more powerful than traditional audio systems.

ENGINES AND PERFORMANCE

When it came out, Bugatti’s W16 engine was unlike any other automotive engine in the world. With its four turbos and prodigious power, it set a new benchmark and pushed back the boundaries of combustion engine technology. Two decades after its launch, it has yet to be equalled, or even imitated. Following in its footsteps, here’s another incomparable masterpiece of internal combustion engineering, combined with the instant torque and flexibility of electric motors.

This new-generation Bugatti hypersport is powered by an all-new 8.3-liter naturally-aspirated V16 engine – designed in collaboration with Cosworth – combined with two electric motors on the front axle and one electric motor on the rear axle. In all, the Tourbillon develops 1,800 hp, of which 1,000 hp is generated by the combustion engine and 800 hp by the electric motors. This is an extraordinary performance – made possible by a whole range of advanced materials and technologies – given that the Veyron achieved 1001 hp with its 8.0-liter engine featuring four turbochargers, and the new V16 is fully naturally aspirated. Made from lightweight materials, the engine weighs just 555,5 Lbs.

The electric motors are powered by a 25 kWh oil-cooled 800V battery housed in the central tunnel and behind the passengers. With four-wheel drive and all-wheel torque vectoring, the hypersport benefits from optimum traction and agility. The three electric motors deliver a total of 800 hp. The electric motor, with its speed of up to 24,000 rpm and fully integrated dual silicon carbide inverter, offers one of the highest power densities in the world. Electric axles deliver over 6 kW per kg of electric axle mass, including inverters, electric motors and gearboxes. While the power, throttle response and additional torque offered by the “Torque-Fill” function are priorities for the electric powertrain, the relatively high energy content of 25 kWh enables an all-electric range of over 37 miles.

The Tourbillon boasts significantly improved performance, a powerful electric drive system and a large battery. Yet it’s lighter than the Chiron, a testament to the incredible engineering behind this achievement. Thanks to its light weight and the instant torque provided by the electric motors, the Bugatti Tourbillon delivers breathtaking performance.
