#HowExpensive #BusinessInsider #Watches The tourbillon (French for tourbillon) is a centuries-old mechanism found in some of the world’s most expensive watches. It was originally designed to improve the accuracy of pocket watches by rotating the escapement and balance wheel to counteract the effects of gravity. Today, tourbillon watches are considered works of art by collectors. The manufacturing and assembly of the mechanism is time-consuming and requires extreme precision and patience. The complex design of tourbillon watches, combined with their limited production, contributes to their exclusivity and high price. Remy Cools is an independent watchmaker based near Lake Annecy in France and is working on his second limited edition of 36 tourbillon watches, dubbed the “Tourbillon Atelier,” with each watch costing $172,000. At the low end of the range, some entry-level tourbillon watches can be found for $30,000. However, most tourbillon watches from well-known brands range from $100,000 to several million.
