Designed by master-watchmaker Jean-François Mojon, the brilliant creative mind behind all Cyrus creations, the Klepcys Vertical Skeleton Tourbillon Sapphire  showcases an outstandingly innovative manual winding movement driving the watch. The tourbillon cage, placed in the middle of the dial , is set on a vertical axis at a 90° angle, thereby optimising its performance in precision. Cyrus Genève choose a unique 3-D open-worked architecture for its dial with a transparent sapphire crystal case allowing a complete view of the movement from all angles.

The transparency of the case contributes to highlight the 18K 4N gold arch, inspired by Leonardo da Vinci’s self-supporting bridge, which simmetrically divides the hours and minutes indications. Due to this lay-out, the Klepcys Vertical Skeleton Tourbillon Sapphire shows the jumping retrograde hours on a left black microbeaded arch with luminescent Arabic numerals while the sweeping retrogade minutes are read off on the right arch. Hour and minute hands are also covered with Super-LumiNova for better legibility in dark light conditions.

The seconds are visible on the tourbillon cage thanks to small numbered plates on a 5- second interval scale. Between the two arches of the tourbillon bridge, a black DLC microbillé sphere with a 5mm diameter, set at 12 o’clock, catches the eye. It displays the days of the power reserve (1-4). To achieve a balanced effect, the CYRUS logo is set at 6 o’clock.  All the features of the in house manufacture hand-wound movement, calibre CYR625, beating at 21.600 vph and offering over 100-hour power reserve, can be admired in full.
