It is this creative meticulousness that has resulted in the award-winning Three Golden Bridges Tourbillon, which reverses the traditional pocket watch tourbillon escapement so that the mechanism is displayed on the dial. Each bridge has a different role - the first holds the mainspring balance in place, the center holds the hour and minute hand, whilst the third bridge holds the tourbillon. The three bridge designs is also purported to hold conceptual meaning, which some say is to represent the past, present and future, whilst others deem it as the symbol of the Holy Trinity.
