Malte Tourbillon – 18K Rose Gold Tonneau Case (41.5mm)

The Malte Tourbillon stands apart in a world of round watches. Its sensual, barrel-shaped (tonneau) case is a nod to the brand’s heritage of non-conformist design dating back to 1912. The warmth of the 18K rose gold enhances the fluid lines, creating a watch that feels less like a machine and more like a sculpted piece of gold on the wrist.

Design & Craftsmanship

Maltese Cross Tourbillon:
The tourbillon at 6 o’clock is the centerpiece. The carriage is shaped like the brand’s emblem, the Maltese Cross. As it rotates once per minute, the polished surfaces of the cage catch the light, contrasting with the black-polished bridge bar. It is a hypnotic display of mechanical precision.

Tonneau Architecture:
The case measures a substantial 38mm x 48.2mm, offering a significant presence without being bulky. The stepped lugs and curved sapphire crystal seamlessly integrate with the strap, ensuring the watch hugs the wrist comfortably. The crown is discreetly tucked into the side, preserving the uninterrupted flow of the case lines.

Sand-Blasted Dial:
The dial features a fine sand-blasted finish, giving it a soft, matte texture that eliminates glare. This understated background allows the applied rose gold Roman numeral at 12 o’clock and the baton indices to stand out clearly. The off-center hour and minute hands leave ample room for the tourbillon to shine.
