With the REB-5, Rebellion Timepieces hauls that most noble and regal of horological mechanisms, the tourbillon, from its 18th century roots at high speed into the 21st century. Rebellion have now taken the tourbillon and made it their own! In making a complete revolution every 60 seconds, Rebellion's one-minute tourbillon ensures high precision timekeeping and more - much more! Rotating a tourbillon cage each and every minute consumes considerable energy so the majority have a relatively short power reserve. However, Rebellion's REB-5 stands out from the crowd, both technically and aesthetically, by using twin mainspring barrels to provide a massive seven days of power! It is an achievement perhaps less surprising on discovering that the movement was developed specifically for Rebellion by renowned Swiss master watchmaker Laurent Besse.
