Geneva’s Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie is largely a platform to showcase the Richemont’s Group’s choicest new watches, but Ralph Lauren is one of the noted few outside brands that are also present there. This year, they joined the big league and introduced their first-ever tourbillon timepiece: The Ralph Lauren Safari Tourbillon. The tourbillon movement is highly expensive and a prized feature of the most exclusive watches, and this Lauren timepiece makes it more accessible. The tourbillon is in a gunmetal finish and sports the watch case. The brand has partnered with a Richemont group supplier to manufacture this movement for the watch.
This Ralph Lauren Safari Tourbillon, estimated to cost $55,000 rightly combines style and simplicity with top of the line watch making. One can only look forward to what they will present next.
