Limited to 33 timepieces, it is presented in a 39.60 mm white gold case with hours, minutes, small seconds and a mysterious 72-hour power-reserve display.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEvery element of the Balancier QM is conceived as an artwork in its own right. Its 298 components are finished by hand to an uncompromising standard, visible or not. The balance bridge alone unites seven traditional finishing techniques, from barrel polishing and flat black polishing to circular graining, hand-polished flanks and generous 0.40 mm bevels.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAt the heart of the movement is Greubel Forsey’s in-house variable-inertia balance, paired with a hairspring produced entirely within the Atelier from raw material to finished component. The bi-level escape wheel is bevelled and polished on both sides, while convex pallet-jewels bring a subtle play of light to one of the movement’s most precise organs.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe architecture is deliberately three-dimensional. Beneath the high-domed sapphire crystal, the eye moves through a layered landscape of steel, gold and flame-blued hands, from the deep-set escapement to the elevated small seconds and discreet power-reserve sector. The caseback reveals the winding system finished with the same exacting care, down to components hidden from view.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA secret plate engraved “Qualité Musée” is concealed within the movement — the only place the name appears. Refined, restrained and profoundly executed, the Balancier QM is a statement of Greubel Forsey’s founding ambition: to make not the most, but the best.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GREUBEL FORSEY","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57871897264511,"sku":null,"price":296500.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0760\/9797\/8664\/files\/GF_Balancier_QM_1.png?v=1782907030","url":"https:\/\/swissgallery.co.uk\/products\/balancier-qm","provider":"Swiss Gallery UK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
