The MT1.1 “Le Tourbillon 7 Jours” marks the debut of Marco Tedeschi as a fully integrated haute horlogerie manufacture. Built on over two decades of expertise since the creator’s first central tourbillon in 2006, this timepiece embodies a complete vision, where design, movement, and construction are conceived as one. At its core lies the MT 7010 IRM calibre, an openworked mechanical movement delivering an impressive seven-day power reserve from a single oversized barrel. A flying tourbillon positioned at 6 o’clock ensures precision and stability, while the power reserve indicator at 12 o’clock provides clear, functional balance on the dial. Designed with a “form follows the movement” philosophy, the MT1.1 stands apart with its bold, minimalist architecture. The 44mm round case is entirely lugless, with no traditional crown at 3 o’clock. Everything is reimagined for purity and ergonomics. Winding is performed via a crown on the caseback, while a discreet pusher enables seamless switching between winding and time-setting functions. The fully openworked dial reveals the movement in its entirety, showcasing hand-finished components, geometric depth, and refined contrasts enhanced by a dark ruthenium treatment. Every detail serves both clarity and mechanical purpose. Available in Grade 5 titanium, 5N gold, or tantalum, the MT1.1 combines innovative materials with exceptional finishing, including satin brushing, polished bevels, and perlage decoration. The integrated strap system, released via hidden pushers on the caseback, preserves the watch’s clean silhouette without visual interruption. Produced in extremely limited quantities, the MT1.1 is a statement of modern independent watchmaking, prioritising precision, efficiency, and purposeful design over excess. A true collector’s piece, it reflects a singular approach where engineering and artistry exist in perfect harmony.
