In the last years we have seen two very different faces of Greubel Forsey: on the one hand, we get extraordinarily complex watches with big cases and uneven shapes that look like a boxer after an unsuccessful fight night. Its famous GMT*is a prime example of that. On the other hand, it also produces watches with round cases and simpler dials. Still the same insane obsession with the best finishes possible, but less information and a more traditional arrangement. It started with the Tourbillon 24 Secondes Vision, with live pictures here, that secured the manufacture the 2016 Aiguille d'Or, the highest prize at the Grand Prix d'Horlogerie de Genιve (GPHG). That same year we saw the Signature 1, with an even simpler structure. And that's the case of the new Greubel Forsey Balancier Contemporain.
