Star Tourbillon Starissime

ZENITH at the zenith:
The Manufacture launches first Tourbillon El Primero for ladies.

Star Tourbillon Starissime
De eerste Tourbillon El Primero voor dames 

A Star to outshine all Stars. She has elegance, extreme grace and ultimate luxury, she embodies the quintessence of stardom. Posing in the spotlight, she is simply divine. In quest of her very soul, the camera flashguns are popping everywhere as the crowd applauds. She glides up the steps and greets her public. Adulated by fans, honoured by her peers, she is the queen of the night.

On her wrist, the first ever Haute Couture watch: a tourbillon set with 230 pure diamonds top Wesselton quality, totalling 9.8 carats: the greatest horological complication in its most stunning apparel. A Star for a Luminary…

This watch-making masterpiece combines two technical feats. The El Primero movement which is the world’s only chronograph with a heart beating at 36,000 vibrations per hour, enabling tenth of a second precision and the chance to wear a tourbillion which, by enclosing the escapement within a carriage, releases the watch from the laws of gravity.

But dreams soar far beyond techniques… So the tourbillon bridge is replaced by a diamond star, reflected on the crown, while the exquisite 40 mm case is enriched with 117 baguette-cut diamonds and 112 round diamonds adorn the dial. Against a shimmering mother-of-pearl background, the numerals spring to life, interlacing and intertwining with each other. Freed from their sub-dials, the chronograph indicators become stars in their turn, as if time had suddenly broken free from the tangible and was preparing to fly. This lyrical creativity is echoed on the back of the watch, thanks to the diamonds delicately set on the oscillating weight.

The Manufacture ZENITH thus becomes the first watch brand to offer women the sublime beauty of a jewellery creation combined with the absolute intelligence of a grand horological complication. The time has come to give beauty and femininity to the ultimate luxury of a Tourbillion, the Star Tourbillion glitters and fulfils all possible dreams.
