Here we have an absolute beauty from Jaeger-LeCoultre that we found stowed away in a case at SIHH 2014. It's not very often that you see both a flying tourbillon and a perpetual calendar in one watch, let alone one powered by an automatic movement. Amazingly, the complex nature of this horological piece from Jaeger-LeCoultre is matched by an equally complex name . Feast your eyes on the Master Grande Tradition Tourbillon Cylindrique a Quantieme Perpetuel offered in 18k pink gold for 2014 - it was originally released as a limited edition in platinum for 2013. Now listen, I don't want to type that name again and you're probably at work and not on your lunch break so let's all respect what this is and just call it the Cylindrique Perpetuel.
The Cylindrique Perpetuel is Jaeger-LeCoultre's complicated watchmaking at its finest. Based on a 42 by 13.1 mm platform in 18k pink gold with a silver toned dial, display case back, and a gorgeous layout that balances a flying tourbillon as well as a perpetual calendar display spread across three sub dials. The case is finished with its lugs and bezel polished and its flanks in satin.
