Again, Graham opted to exhibit outside the official Baselworld premises and for the fourth year running chose to introduce its new launches in a suitably adapted restaurant in front of the Badischer Banhof - a mere couple of kilometres away from the Babylonic halls of the biggest replica watch trade fair in the world. And it was well worth visiting the Anglo-Swiss brand led by Eric Loth: the flagship model of its 2013 collection is a collector's item that easily rates among the finest timepieces unveiled on the banks of the Rhine on that last week of April. The Geo. Graham Tourbillon Orrery: a planetarium for the wrist Miguel Seabra/Espiral do Tempo It was a surprising masterpiece as well. The notable George Graham, after whom the brand is named, was one of the precursors of the chronograph (he invented the start and stop device) and Graham has based its reputation mainly on iconic chronographic lines such as the emblematic Chronofighter, the wide-eyed Swordfish or the racy Silverstone. But since late last year Eric Loth has added a new branch to the collection called Geo. Graham, starting with the Geo. Graham The Moon; in Basel, the celestial Geo. Graham Tourbillon Orrery upped the ante with an encapsulated solar system for the wrist. Original movement by George Graham. Graham Stairway to heavenWhy the new sky route instead the usual road racing path? "We like to create stunning replica watches for watchmaking connoisseurs and replica watch addicts. And we have a strong will to highlight our heritage and origins", says Eric Loth. "George Graham is at the centre of our creations. Of course, as the 'father of the chronograph' he has been a great source of inspiration. The Geo. Graham line, with exceptional replica watches such as Geo. Graham The Moon or the new Geo. Graham Tourbillion Orrery, pays tribute to his achievements and contributions to astronomy and science in the 18th century. The collection itself bears the name of George, as Geo. Graham is the signature he added to his timekeeping instruments back then. It was clear that complications and timepieces linked to science and astronomy were missing from Graham's collection - and since they're not missing anymore, the brand's essence is now fully expressed!". The Observation made by George Graham for the Royal Society and the original movement by George Graham Royal Society/Graham The Geo. Graham Tourbillon Orrery was definitely one of the hidden treasures of the Basel rendezvous, probably because it was unveiled outside the premises of the fair and away from the main media focus. Limited to 10 rose gold 48mm pieces, it celebrates the 300 years of The Orrery, the first mechanical solar system model conceived by George Graham and presented in 1713 to Charles Boyle, 4th Earl of Orrery, from which all planetariums take their name. The Orrery DR Portable planetariumA friend of remarkable astronomers such as Sir Isaac Newton and Edmond Halley, George Graham combined time and space in the original Orrery table clock that overturned the conventions of watchmaking and astronomy three centuries ago. Graham has worked hard to come up with the Tourbillon Orrery wristwatch in time to celebrate the 300th anniversary of the invention of the first mechanical solar system model. The exclusive Geo. Graham Tourbillon Orrery Graham "It's a replica watch I'm very proud of. It's been 20 years since I first started thinking about it, but we've made it in the past two years", reveals Eric Loth. "As an engineer and a physicist, I was always attracted by astronomy. . I've always wanted to make a portable Orrery, a planetarium with the Earth orbiting the Sun in about 365. 25 days, the Moon orbiting the Earth in around 29. 45 days as well as Mars orbiting the Sun in 400 hundred days- while both the Moon and Mars revolve around the central tourbillon cage. ". Precious planetsEric Loth partnered with calibre expert Christophe Claret to create the manual wound, hi-tech tri-dimensional movement for the 48mm x 17. 6 pink gold case of the Tourbillon Orrery. "Mars, the red planet, is represented by a ruby. The Moon, as a dead planet, is in rhodium steel and turns around the sapphire Earth, the blue planet. At the centre we have a diamond and the Sun is represented by a pink gold hand-engraved tourbillon bridge with two Phoenix heads celebrating the typical decoration used by George Graham back then". The heliocentric dial also boasts a Zodiac scale with 12 astrological signs and the Gregorian calendar; in both cases the Earth indicates the zodiac sign and the date. The year counter on the case back enables the owner - and his offsprings! - to identify correction for the planets (Moon: 7 years, Earth: 1156 years, Mars: 25 years) and make adjustments via small correctors; two more case backs are provided with indications for each of the two following centuries. The see-through case back includes graduations and indications for 100 years; three replaceable case backs are provided. Carlos Torres The Tourbillon Orrery is therefore designed to last a lifetime and beyond: it is functional for the next 300 years. "For the first 100 years, all corrections are made within the timepiece with the help of an index and correctors. As far as I know, it's the only wristwatch of this kind; it's a real perpetual planetarium. And the working instructions for the next 300 years are given by the replica watch and not by a booklet thanks to the replaceable case backs with additional 100 year graduations", underlines Eric Loth; "We have made a 300th anniversary replica watch that is usable over the next 300 years. We will leave it to future generations to create the third Orrery in 2313!".
