In-Depth The Grand Seiko T0 Constant Force Concept Tourbillon, The First Tourbillon Movement ...

If you want to see the T0 Tourbillon in person, you will have to travel to Japan - specifically, to the Grand Seiko Studio Shizukuishi, in Morioka, which is Grand Seiko's new manufacturing facility, inaugurated earlier this year It does not always happen that fascinating concept pieces become production watches, but it does happen occasionally - the Cartier ID One and Two concept watches remain, sadly, only concept projects, but on the other hand, the Piaget Altiplano Ultimate Concept watch is being series produced, which I certainly didn't expect - in minuscule numbers, but still, it's a production watch I don't know to what extent the remontoire would need to be redesigned for a non-tourbillon watch, but I wouldn't mind in the least seeing a hand-wound Hi-Beat non-tourby with a remontoire.

In any case, I strongly suspect that GS didn't make this fascinating caliber just to give people who get to Morioka something to admire In some form, I think some of this tech is going to end up out in the world, in production watches. . Source
