The Maximus wristwatch contains the world’s largest
tourbillon ever designed. This timepiece, whose name means
“the largest”, is a genuine technical feat acknowledged by two
patents as well as an aesthetic achievement: housed in a
cage measuring 27 mm in diameter, the majestic tourbillon,
the focus of everyone’s attention, presents a unique show.
This exceptionally portable model features optimal
chronometric performance that will not disappoint.

A REAL TECHNICAL
FEAT
A 54-hour power reserve
The "gauge" indicating the power reserve of more than 54
hours is also displayed on the case back rather than on the
dial - which is logical, given that the winding of the
movement by the 4 barrels is carried out from the case back
by means of a very special winder, independent of the crown
- the latter, shifted to 2 o'clock, being used only to set the
time.
An exceptional movement
The movement was designed, manufactured and decorated
by Kerbedanz. It is a hand-wound mechanical movement with
a total of 415 components. Of these components, 73 make up
the tourbillon and its cage, entirely in titanium, weighing 1.35
grams. The height of the movement itself is 8.35 mm and
13.2 mm with the tourbillon cage. The design and
manufacture of the balance wheel and balance spring also
had to be mastered.
06
A unique winding system
The force required to wind the four barrels is so great that it
necessitated the design of a manual winding system from the
bottom of the case, activating the central ball-bearing gear
wheel, which itself meshes with the barrel wheels. The
winding "key" is designed like a kind of chicken or spider, not
with 8 legs but with 6 "arms" that are hooked with the fingers
to make them turn clockwise. The winding is done by a
system of pawls, which is designed with a disengagement to
avoid the breakage of a pawl or a tooth in case of error in the
direction of rotation.

PRECAUTIONS FOR
USE
To ensure the longevity of your timepiece, it is important to have
it serviced periodically, exclusively by an authorized service
center.
The frequency of periodic service depends on the use of the
watch and the environment in which it is worn.
We recommend that you have a water-resistance test performed
every 2 years and a full service every 5 years.
Read this manual carefully and follow the
maintenance instructions.
Make sure the bracelet is properly adjusted to
your wrist size at the time of purchase.
