From the independent Swiss brand that bills itself as creating 'Only Tourbillon' watches (and high velocity ones at that), this Escape IIS Treasure Baguette watch blends superlative mechanical watchmaking with brilliant gem setting. The brand's first high complication for women, it boasts the world's fastest triple-axis tourbillon and is the first double Spherion-powered timepiece. (The double Spherion movement, with two cages - each housing a triple-axis tourbillon - was designed by Purnell in collaboration with master watchmaker Eric Coudray.) This newest 386-part hand-winding Caliber CP13 features diamond-set spherical cages to underscore the beauty and uniqueness of the craftsmanship. The watch features an hours/minutes dial set with 46 baguette diamonds and 11 baguette sapphires as indices. The case is set with 326 baguette diamonds weighing more than 20 carats.

Although only founded in 2020, Purnell has already made a mark on the watchmaking scene, not only by integrating into the established Swiss watchmaking region of Vallée de Joux, but also through the revelation of its signature Sephiron - the World's Fastest Triple-Axis Tourbillon.Employing this innovative, mechanical hand-winding movement are the watches of the Escape Primo collection. As well as a robust structure made from rose gold and carbon, the timepiece boasts a sapphire dial, 50-hour power reserve and a suspended mobile cone mainspring sensor. The watches of the Escapeii collection similarly work to conceptualize time and defy its passing through its stout exterior.Purnell's prestige is also evident through its high-esteemed partnerships that include pairing with the esteemed club AS Monaco and the annual football award: Ballon d'Or.
