For this limited edition of 25 pieces, Angelus presents a vibrant creation where skeletonised mechanics become a canvas for colour and graphic expression. The satin finish titanium case confronts the deep black of the movement, brought to life by vivid orange accents that highlight the time displays and are echoed on the three interchangeable straps offered. The whole is a symphony of powerful contrasts, enhanced by the three-dimensional beauty of an openwork calibre designed as an interplay of interlocking circles.
A fusion of energies
Every detail of this 42.5 mm timekeeper expresses a facet of the energy that animates it. Chromatic energy, with orange as the signature colour. Customisable energy, with interchangeable straps: black alligator leather for elegance, textured orange rubber for sport or integrated titanium for architectural continuity. Light energy, revealed by the skeletonised movement. Structural energy, in the layering of levels and depths. And finally, graphic energy, embodied by the three-dimensional architecture of the A-310 calibre.
Energy in harmony
The Flying Tourbillon Skeleton Titanium dial showcases a masterful interplay of volumes. An orange peripheral minute track floats above a black flange adorned with hour markers crafted for the first time by Angelus in monolithic blocks of Super-LumiNova. These luminous markers guarantee optimal readability, even in the dark, and accentuate the contemporary design.
The contrast of colours and materials intensifies with the three straps proposed. The quick-release system provides a smooth transition between elegance, sport and a complete technical aesthetic, offering the wearer true freedom of style.
Energy in the details
The case’s construction demonstrates the watchmaker’s technical savoir-faire. At its heart is a carbon composite case chamber, exceptionally light yet remarkably rigid, ensuring optimal protection for the movement. Encasing this technical core, a modular titanium outer cage enhances stability while emphasising the sophisticated mechanical aesthetic.
Within the A-310 calibre, Angelus’s signature wheels – each with three openwork double spokes –create an optical choreography leading to the flying tourbillon. Suspended without an upper bridge, the tourbillon is supported by a bridge angled at 160°. This intentional asymmetry accentuates the visual tension and dynamic balance. As for the retaining screws, they feature the three-blade propeller design – a distinctive stylistic hallmark of the Maison.
Gear train energy
The calibre of the Flying Tourbillon Skeleton Titanium, housed at the heart of the timepiece, is an advanced interpretation of the flying tourbillon skeleton. Designed with a three-dimensional structure, it combines an openwork main plate with lightweight circular bridges to maximise transparency, rigidity and precision. At 1 o’clock, a large-diameter barrel ensures a stable distribution of energy, balancing the small seconds at 9 o’clock and the tourbillon at 6 o’clock, which completes a rotation every minute.
Oscillating at a frequency of 4 Hz, the movement offers a 60-hour power reserve, guaranteeing performance and endurance in a skeletonised format that optimises space.
L.A.B, the Angelus manifesto
The Flying Tourbillon Skeleton Titanium, Orange Edition fully embodies the watchmaking philosophy of Angelus L.A.B. – Legacy and Beyond. A real innovation statement, this collection combines high-level technical mastery, bold architecture and clean design to transform mechanics into contemporary artwork.
