Royal Oak Carbon Concept Tourbillon and Chronograph

Already the first and only watch company to master forged carbon technology, the Manufacture in Le Brassus is taking a further step by presenting the first watch equipped with both a case and movement in carbon. Lightness and sturdiness are the keynotes of this exceptional timepiece, since along with carbon, forged carbon and the amorphous carbon coating, its materials also include ceramics, titanium and eloxed aluminium. In terms of its display, this model features an entirely original linear chronograph minute counter. The Royal Oak Carbon Concept Tourbillon and Chronograph doubtless prefigures the future of watchmaking.
