A dynasty united on a dial!
The name of this tourbillon, “Dynasty”, was chosen for good reason, as the dial encapsulates an entire historical Russian narrative – essentially, an entire dynasty.
The Russian tsars of the Romanov dynasty are depicted on the dial, from the founder Michael Fedorovich to the last tsar, Nicholas II., including Peter the Great, Catherine II., Elizabeth, and several others.
To appropriately honor these significant figures, their depiction was crafted using a high-precision 3D printing process, applied in multiple layers on the dial. This technique is new to the Poljot-International brand and was used for the first time in this special tourbillon, making this model truly unique. To enhance the overall design, the Romanov family crest was created as a high-quality applique, earning its rightful place at the 12 o’clock position.
The classically designed hour and minute scale is placed as an outer ring on the dial. The time is indicated by an elegant, slim central hour and minute hand, while the seconds are visualized by the arrow on the tourbillon bridge. The elegant case has a diameter of 42 mm and is perfectly proportioned with a height of just 9.5 mm without the top glass and 12.47 mm with the domed sapphire crystal, making it suitable for almost any wrist.
The 3400.PTS movement was chosen as the ideal mechanism, offering essential functions such as hour, minute, and second indications, along with the striking tourbillon cage prominently positioned at 6 o’clock. The seconds are displayed via the innovative “Tourbillon Bridge” by Poljot-International, designed in the shape of an arrow. The movement’s bridges are adorned with Geneva stripes and decorated with blued screws. The movement provides a power reserve of at least 72 hours when fully wound, allowing the watch to be wound only every three days.
Worn on a black crocodile leather strap and limited to only 100 pieces, this exceptional tourbillon, which combines historical significance with modern innovation, is a true collector’s item for enthusiasts.
Poljot International Tourbillon
A tourbillon is a legend among watches and, alongside the minute repeater (a chime mechanism like a church clock), is considered the most complex complication in the world of mechanical watches!
Abraham-Louis Breguet developed in 1795 this revolutionary mechanism and this had a significant impact on the world of watchmaking ever since. (see below for an explanation of the function of a tourbillon).
20mm lug width; sapphire crystal and glass bottom made of sapphire crystal!
Limited to only 100 pieces.
Exclusively at Poljot24: we deliver this special watch with an original leather strap and additionally with a Molnija Milanese strap made of polished stainless steel, as well as the high-quality RIOS1931 leather strap Louisiana Crocodile Calf in your desired color (selection above) with a matching butterfly folding clasp!

Of course, the tourbillon is the eye-catcher on this watch and you can't look at it enough - but what exactly is a tourbillon?
Here is the explanation - source copyright Wikipedia:
"In order to eliminate changes in the position of a pocket watch (and the resulting inaccuracy), Abraham Louis Breguet (1747-1823) invented the tourbillon in 1795. The patent was granted in Paris in 1801, and in the patent specification it is referred to as a "Régulateur à Tourbillon". In this case, the escape wheel, the anchor and the so-called balance are installed on a small plate in a bogie, a cage sitting on the shaft of the seconds wheel. The seconds drive is screwed to the bogie from below and firmly installed on the lower plate. The bogie, in the middle of which the balance swings exactly above the shaft of the seconds wheel, rotates around the screwed-on seconds wheel. The drive of the escape wheel runs on this. So when the seconds wheel rotates once per minute, the tourbillon (the plate) follows this rotation. As a result, position or center of gravity errors no longer occur or are corrected once per minute. (depending on the tourbillon) balanced."
The tourbillon is considered, along with the minute repeater (chime mechanism like a church clock), to be the most complex complication in mechanical watches!
