The tourbillon compilation was designed by Louis Abraham Breguet to counteract the effects of gravity by placing the heart of the watch – the escapement – in a rotating cage.

Time and Tide visit the home of Hublot, in Nyon Switzerland, to spend a day with the high complications team exploring a range of complications from the inside, starting with the tourbillon.
