Due the size of the tourbillon the power for this watch need is much ore than the usual, based on that need the Frank Muller team worked in a new system powered by four barrel witch are first paired in series to double the operating reserve and then assembled parallel to one another so that the power of the movement is doubles, genius don’t you think?

Another peculiarity in this pieces is that the movement has been reversed so the setting and winding section is located at the base and the hour hand is positioned on top of the minute hand.
This Watch contains a full 10 days power reserve, and to achieve this the Frank Muller team has design this tourbillon to feature 4 barrels instead of the traditional two, and the wheel as is so big it moves with more energy that preserves it from the shocks  and stabilizes  the operation  y the frequency of the oscillation, pure high tech!
