The 42mm polished stainless steel case houses a hand-wound tourbillon regulator movement, developed by BCP Tourbillons and boasting an impressive 100-hour power reserve. The dial delivers a dramatic mix of textures and tones, sunray silver, satin-finished anthracite, and a red tourbillon flange with a white fang motif. The hour disc at 12 o’clock keeps its single, all-seeing eye motif, while the black central minute hand splits into two monster-like tips. Every detail on the dial has been carefully placed to enhance both storytelling and timekeeping precision.
The Time Eater Tourbillon is completed with a black toad leather strap accented with green stitching and a soft rabbit leather lining. Its green minute ring and dual logo transfer, Louis Erard at 6 o'clock, Konstantin Chaykin at 12, mark it unmistakably as a collaboration between two visionary forces. With sapphire crystals front and back, a signature Chaykin crown, and 50 meters of water resistance, this tourbillon balances whimsy and technical mastery in equal measure. A rare collector’s piece that blurs the line between watchmaking and art.
