Hublot is pushing back the boundaries in terms of the multi-axis tourbillon. Thus
the MP-09 Tourbillon Bi-Axis is derived from a powerful idea: to provide maximum
visibility of the tourbillon—and its fascinating double rotation—by designing an Haute
Horlogerie movement devoted to this objective, and then creating an original case
that highlights this 100% manufacture calibre. Here, the function defines the form.
The Hublot MP-09 Tourbillon Bi-Axis watch beats to the rhythm of a hand-wound
mechanical movement featuring a 5-day power reserve. It also features a bi-axial
tourbillon that undertakes a complete rotation each minute for the first axis and a
rotation every 30 seconds for the second. This means that the dynamic movement—
immediately perceptible—of this double tourbillon cage has an appearance that is
as fascinating as it is fun.
The MP-09 Tourbillon Bi-Axis also stands out because of its innovative date
corrector, which is as ingenious as it is practical. Simply pressing the lever up or
down moves the date forward or backward by a day, respectively.
Hublot once again demonstrates its capacity to design clearly unique and distinctive
watches. Watches that clearly bear Hublot's signature with a strong character, and
that demonstrate an absolute mastery in all areas of Haute Horlogerie.
