The Rotonde de Cartier Fling Tourbillon - Interwatches.com News

This is another of the new year’s Cartier timepieces. This is the third Tourbillion model released in 2012: the Rotonde de Cartier Flying Tourbillon. 

The Rotonde de Artier flying tourbillon  offers a classic reinterpretation of the 9452 MC Movement, specially produced to meet the criteria of the Geneva Seal. Complementing more contemporary design such as the Calibre de Cartier or the Ballon Blue de Cartier, this refined watch is the smallest in its category with its 40 mm diameter offering exceptional comfort on the wrist. 

A blend of circles and curves, it has been carefully designed to give power to the watch without making it heavy and to underline its exceptional technical characteristics, the C-shaped tourbillon carriage appears to fly on the bridges, as if weightless above the dial.
