The Mulliner Tourbillon

Mulliner is the jewel in the crown of the Bentley car manufacturer. The exclusivity of the Mulliner Tourbillon comes at a price especially since only a few dozen of these remarkable timepieces will be made over the next few years. The watch, like the car, will be customized by the future owner who can choose whether he would like a platinum, or yellow, rose or white gold case, the dial colour, the shade of the crocodile leather strap and the type of veneer for the precious wood decoration on the back of the watch.

The movement is a hand-wound Breitling Calibre 18B with tourbillon regulating system, there is a pointer date display and it is a COSC certified chronometer.
The watch has a unique 30-second chronograph mechanism which is unusual in that the central seconds hand revolves around the dial in half a minute as opposed to the normal 60 seconds. This rather surprising configuration offers a more precise reading of the fractions of a second, which in this case is 1/6th of a second. There is also a 15-minute counter. The hour markers are crafted in mother-of-pearl, the owner’s initials are engraved on one of the movement bridges and the precious wooden ring on the caseback, which is available in the one of the six shades and veneers as the Bentley Mulliner trim on the car, is protected by a sapphire crystal. Finally, the dial is available in eight different colours.

The Mulliner Tourbillon, unique in concept, is a chef-d’oeuvre of workmanship and elegance that is a fitting tribute to the Mulliner Bentley car and the ‘Breitling for Bentley’ watch collection.
