After proposing the Regulator typology within the Portuguese collection, IWC has now enriched this model with a precious Tourbillon. Created for large laboratory pendulums, the Regulator allowed a better reading of the time by off-centring the hours and minutes, avoiding the overlapping of the three hands. The newly added complication, the Tourbillon (a favourite among enthusiasts), can only make this model even more exclusive, as underlined by the decision to make it in a limited edition of 100 pieces, in platinum, white gold and red gold respectively.
