The story behind the Blackout Watches XP1
The Geneva-based brand Blackout Watches offers contemporary and technically sophisticated timepieces. The XP1 Flying Tourbillon model incorporates a classic horological complication within a resolutely modern design. Historically reserved for traditional timepieces, the flying tourbillon has here been designed for everyday wear. The brand selects a mechanical movement blank, which it entrusts to its Swiss workshop to adjust and modify the sensitive components. This approach results in a complex movement combined with a understated, geometric aesthetic. The XP1 model affirms the brand’s technical identity without any superfluous elements.
Case, calibre and strap of this XP1
The case features a tonneau shape measuring 44 mm by 52 mm. Machined from grade 5 titanium, it is lightweight and durable on the wrist. The fully brushed finish of the metal emphasises the watch’s industrial look. The open-worked dial reveals the bridges and gear train of the hand-wound mechanical movement. At 6 o’clock, the rotating cage of the flying tourbillon rotates continuously. The geometric hour-markers and hands incorporate white luminescent material to ensure clear time-reading. This calibre guarantees a power reserve of 72 hours. Protected by a sapphire crystal, the watch is water-resistant to 100 metres. The textured black rubber strap is integrated with the case and fastens with a folding clasp. A quick-release system allows it to be removed without tools.
