The Academy: Christophe Colomb Hurricane is an impressive watch. It's 45mm rose gold case houses the hand-wound caliber 8005, which has a spectacular 'Gravity Control' device at 6, cancelling out the effects of gravity of the regulating organ by ensuring a horizontal position at all times. This movement features a spectacular constant force fusée-chain transmission connected to the barrel, which can be seen in spectacular -blue- fashion since there is no real dial fitted.The hour ring on this model is enamel, while the smaller dials for the power reserve and small seconds are gold with hand-crafted guilloché pattern. The height listed is the 'conventional' height - it measures 22mm including the bulge.
