Greubel Forsey Tourbillon 24 Secondes Contemporain

About this reference

The Greubel Forsey Tourbillon 24 Secondes Contemporain in 18k rose gold was introduced around 2012 and is no longer in regular production. Collectors prioritize this reference for its Calibre GF01c movement, which features a fast-rotating tourbillon inclined at a 25-degree angle to compensate for gravity in various positions. The design is distinguished by its multi-level dial architecture, featuring a transparent synthetic sapphire hour-circle and a prominent power reserve indicator at 4 o'clock. The 43.5mm case houses a movement with 267 components and a 72-hour power reserve. This specific rose gold execution was limited to 33 pieces, contributing to its scarcity. On the secondary market, this reference typically commands prices in the low-to-mid six-figure range, often between $180,000 and $250,000 depending on condition. A notable 2012 variant, the "Edition Sertie," featured baguette-cut diamonds, though the standard rose gold model remains the core collector choice.
