Just a year ago, Girard-Perregaux launched an epic new watch, the Neo-Tourbillon Three Bridges Skeleton The new Quasar Neo-Tourbillon Three Bridges Skeleton is surrounded in a transparent sapphire crystal case, ensuring a full 360-degree view of the movement Swirling gas fuels a Quasar's blinding light that flows into an uncommonly large black hole.

The crystal case provides the shining light symbolizing the Quasar, while the darker movement within evokes a black hole Instead of gold, the watch's three bridges are carved of titanium and coated with black PVC They're also arched, creating more advanced support for the movement.

Three golden bridges have been a hallmark of the brand dating back to 1889 with the prize-winning Esmerelda pocket watch tourbillon The three bridges are still clearly present in the new watch - but they're made of titanium. . Source
