Blancpain: How a tourbillon works

[@tanmanhnguyen5932]

Such a useful video. I got to listen to your music for 40 seconds and hear a half-assed explanation. COOL

[@johnrieley1404]

Excellent explanation, you have helped my understand my Chinese single axle tourbillon, thanks, and I liked with nice large animation.

[@sncblu03]

love the vids... but the 30 second intro has to go

[@Costikeke]

its just acknowledgement, skip over

[@tsarbomba1]

It's way too long. Take it from someone in the industry.

[@Costikeke]

in what industry may i ask

[@tsarbomba1]

Post production. Been in television for the last 25 years. Worked on entertainment, long form video concerts, and documentaries.

[@Costikeke]

16 years of production, television, radio, movies, singer song writer, entertainment

[@surfshop7552]

Best explanation ever...i now understand

[@michaelbauers8800]

excellent video; very thankful for this clear explanation!

[@blower05]

beg the rate error cancelling part to be explained more for I could understand

[@youtubesuckss7058]

So he said the gearing is wrong cos the two systems are off but when introducing the new gearing the correction is implemented and therefore cancel the error and the watch runs on time???

[@Anon.User.602]

Can someone explain? If the power (from the mainspring) is delivered to the cage (escapement) always at a constant angle, why does it matter if the escapement-cage rotates? The mainspring is upstream of escapement in power transduction, and there will always be a bias in the direction of mainspring's power delivery. Indeed, don't you have to rotate the mainspring to balance the claimed affects of gravity?

[@bumboclat]

gravity does not impact the mainspring at all. gravity does however impact the escapement and pallet fork. Now if the oscillating system is always kept in one position (historically: pocketwatch in pocket) it cannot work in perfect symmetry. You rotate it by averaging out the effect of gravity on those components.

dang.. I want a tourby watch even more

[@JustDux]

Buy chineese one

[@johnrieley1404]

@@JustDuxSugess at a little over half-a-thousand is excellent for the working man

[@sultanabran1]

music is the best!

[@RUS38]

Ok but how does tourbillon work?

[@youtubesuckss7058]

RUS38 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@car5car5]

Where is cage? He is too old, his brain doesn't work. Or mine????

[@car5car5]

I don't need to see you, show big gears on screen

[@youtubesuckss7058]

I'm gna make it really confusing: So there's an input force of the gear design that's rotating 360/whatever Theres another gearing system that connected by shaft and another by shaft and gear ahhh shit I'm stupid

[@lunsj]

Thanks for the info white bread.

[@thomasscoville1148]

Or you could just go quartz.

[@youtubesuckss7058]

My brain is melting too difficult to understand

[@LeeePowers]

Eyes melting from watching it work.

[@volkerl.314]

The beginning of the word Tourbillion is not pronounced like the English word turbine !!!!!!!!!!!!

[@hectormerc350]

Head hurts

[@miguelhidalgo94]

It seems like you don't have a clue of how a tourbillon works.

[@UtkuDemir]

I stopped and disliked the video after I watch 30 seconds long intro. Now I can watch the rest.

[@youtubesuckss7058]

Utku Demir I think thts how they stop ppl finding out the truth

[@johnrieley1404]

Patience pays off. His explanation I thought was excellent.

[@youtubesuckss7058]

That design is the devil

[@Fellowrser]

What

[@harryvuong638]

Stupid explanation. Take off the aviation tag & all that, he doesn’t deserve a freaking watch-guy title he can tell jokes for his grandchild but not to inform any audience

[@zakiahmad4024]

Annoying music ever.

[@johnrieley1404]

Everything has its own time and own season, so some ancient wise man wrote.
