MOVEMENT WINDING

The manual-winding mechanical movement developed in house delivers a 5 day power reserve. After this period, you must wind your watch to provide the necessary energy for it to run.

In order to maintain perfect symmetry, the Transformers: Rise of the Beasts Tourbillon case has no traditional crown. On the case back, a D-ring crown is stowed out of sight to help maintain the timepiece’s sleek, space age styling. This mechanism enables faster winding than with a traditional crown.

To wind your watch, lift the D-ring crown and turn it counterclockwise until you feel some resistance, meaning that the watch has been wound. To fully wind your watch, 23 complete turns are needed.

TIME SETTING

The hours and minutes are displayed in a unique peripheral format, made possible by a planetary gear system that orbits 360° around the tourbillon.

To set the time, press the “Time Set” push button. Lift the D-ring crown located on the case-back synchronously and turn clockwise until the exact time is set. When setting the time, there may be some resistance as the watch will be wound simultaneously.

Note:
You might turn the D-crown counterclockwise. In this case, go back 10 minutes before the actual time. Then, turn it clockwise until adjusting the exact time. It enables the gear train to go back to its functioning position.

INTERCHANGEABLE STRAPS

The “Transformers: Rise of the Beasts” Tourbillon is equipped with an interchangeable strap system, a practical feature where two quick release buttons are hidden on the underside of the case.

Push each button to release the strap.
INTERCHANGEABLE STRAPS

BUCKLE OPENING

Press simultaneously the two push buttons located on the sides of the clasp to open the buckle.

BUCKLE RELEASE

To detach the buckle, no tools are required. Simply pull the lever located under the clasp and it will release the strap.
To fix the buckle, start by inserting the right side of the buckle on the spring bar. Pull the lever and insert the left side.
Make sure the spring bar is securely in place by pulling few times the strap.

THE AIRAZOR ARTIFACT

The “Transformers: Rise of the Beasts” Tourbillon watch comes along with a stand alone functional art piece, the Airazor artifact.

A watch can be stored inside the Airazor.

Applying pressure on its head allows it to spread its wings and activate a lever system, causing the watch to emerge under a green mechatronic LED light. The same pressure allows the sculpture to be closed again.

The sculpture is crafted from polyresin, giving it a lifelike appearance.

We recommend to put on gloves before manipulating the functional sculpture.

REGULAR CARE

REGULAR CARE OF THE AIRAZOR FUNCTIONAL SCULPTURE

Use a smooth microfiber cloth to clean the sculpture. Gloves are recommended to prevent any risk of scratching. If needed, you may use a solvent free cleaner to spray on the cloth. Do not spray any liquid directly on the sculpture.

REGULAR CARE OF THE “TRANSFORMERS: RISE OF THE BEASTS” TOURBILLON

The tourbillon remains one of the main horological complications and bears the mark of the most talented watchmakers. Caution and care are required to ensure the longevity of your watch. To handle it properly, a set of gloves and a soft microfiber cloth are provided in a box along with your Transformers: Rise of the Beasts Collector Set. We strongly recommend wearing gloves every time the watch is manipulated for winding or time setting. It will enable a better gripping and help prevent any risk of scratching.

The watch has a water resistance of 30 meters. We recommend avoiding sea water. Clean regularly your watch by wiping down carefully with the soft microfiber cloth. If needed, you may use a solvent-free cleaner to spray on the cloth. Do not spray any liquid directly on the watch.
