Movement development is typically a multi-year undertaking. Thankfully our engineers and watchmakers have developed a stack of core components that help expedite future movement developments. The K-TMR utilises much of our existing catalogue of core components with a number of new parts and new architecture to be built.

The journey towards the Autark Tourbillon starts at the heart of the watch, the K-TMR movement was developed and delivered to completion on only 18 months. 

The K-TMR calibre at 3.6mm it‘s not just thin, but powerful, with 72 hours of power reserve.

Through advanced gear train geometries, a full non-magnetic silicon escapement and optimized micro-rotor weight, the K-TMR is not only be the newest proprietary Swiss micro-rotor tourbillon but one of, if not the, most efficient micro-rotor tourbillon calibres available.

To build the future you need to go above and beyond. Through advanced engineering, Horage is raising the industry bar and has placed the K-TMR in a league of its own for years to come. 

Rewinding efficiency is at the core of any micro-rotor movement development.

Maximum rewinding efficiency is critical and the Horage engineers have utilised a Gold Plated Tungsten micro-rotor for this task. You can choose to upgrade to a solid PT950 platinum for an upcharge at point of order.

Tungsten is a dense metal and is the industry option for micro-rotors. Increased material density causes the rotor to swing and initiate the rewinding of the mainspring at lower angles. This means smaller wrist movements will cause the rotor to swing and thus rewind your watches power reserve faster. The PT950 Platinum upgrade offers more dense, premium precious metal option, which further increases the winding efficiency by around 8%.

Sporty, mesmerizing depth was a prime focal point for the Autark Tourbillon dial.

Setting the mood to the functions and finish of the micro-rotor tourbillon is the stamped Gradient Grey, Sunray Black, Sunray Blue and Salmon dials.

At 6 o‘clock the 0.29 gram titanium flying tourbillon whirls and captivates as it makes a full rotation every 60 seconds. A blued screw in the cage references the seconds and can be marked at the 30-second mark of the minutes track that circumnavigates the dial.

Champagne gold or bright rhodium finishing on the tourbillon cage aperture creates a visual separation that complements the hour markers filled with Swiss Super LumiNova®. At 10 o‘clock on the Gradient Grey and the Salmon dial a power reserve indicator rounds out the chic technical finish of Autark Tourbillon.

A captivating interplay of brushed and polished surfaces

Refined detail and proportion were paramount for the integrated Grade 5 titanium bracelet. A taper from 22mm to 16mm balances between sporty and elegant.

The beautifully crafted bracelet is fastened with Horage‘s proprietary HMAC micro-adjustment buckle that offers 10mm of adjustment in 1mm increments.

Re-Calibrating the Price Barrier.

Horage broke the price barriers for the Swiss titanium flying tourbillon, the micro-rotor GMT and now we are doing it again with the micro-rotor tourbillon. The market start point for Swiss micro-rotor tourbillons is north of 40,000 Swiss francs and can reach the hundreds of thousands.  The retail price for the Autark Tourbillon starts at 12,990 Swiss francs with a Gold plated Tungsten rotor.

An upgrade to a solid PT950 Platinum rotor is available for an additional 2,000 Swiss francs.
