Introducing The Roger Dubuis Excalibur Quatuor: Four Balances, Silicon Case, No Tourbillon
Watchmakers have always tried to battle the effects of gravity on a timepiece’s balance assembly. The well-known tourbillon has, to date, been the de facto solution to this problem and we’ve seen multi-axis tourbillons, flying tourbillons, and double tourbillons. At SIHH this week, Roger Dubuis, the avant garde Geneva watch brand, has introduced an effective alternative to the tourbillon, and it’s a world first – a watch movement with four sprung balances.Called the Quatuor and introduced in the company’s Excalibur case, the movement’s balances are paired, two and two, and positioned at 90 degree angles to one another, linked by differentials. Each balance operates at 4 Hz, adding up to 16 oscillations per second. By distributing the effects of gravity across the four balances, these effects are negated, thus resulting in a more consistent timekeeping rate. All the technical detail aside, the movement is quite stunning to behold and the sound of four

Updates
It's been a rough three weeks since my heart surgery but today I felt good enough to return some phone calls that had come in while I've been out.One of those was Jim at Continental. When we had talked pre-hospital, his wife of 52+ years had just died. He and June were more than husband and wife, they were business partners. Anyone who had ever called Continental most likely had the call answered by June. Needless to say, Jim could not visualize continuing without her. He had decided to hang it up. When we talked today, Jim had done a 180. What changed? It was all the calls, emails, and cards from friends and customers expressing condolences and urging him not to close down. So it's back to business as usual. He's eliminating the office overhead and 800 number (which may in turn be reflected in his pricing). The Continental direct phone line will still be good with rollover and voicemail.Everyone needs a reason for getting up each morning and this will be good for Jim. Thanks everyone.
