The History
of.... Located on Lake Biel’s shores, picturesque Twann lies nestled at
the foot of steeply terraced hillside vineyards. This scenic area of
Switzerland has not only been home to winemaking for centuries, but
also various small and highly specialized watch manufacturers. The
solitude and atmosphere of tradition surrounding the town, has made it
an ideal location for the founding of Thomas Prescher Haute Horlogerie in
2002.... Thomas Prescher’s passion for horology born of a childhood
obsession with collecting crystals and minerals. As a teenager on a
visit to a local jewelery shop, his eye drifted to the watchmaker
working at his bench and he was smitten. He began working part-time at
the store and became familiar with the mechanics of watches and clocks.
After the navy, Prescher study watchmaking. He won the single
apprenticeship position offered yearly by IWC. He completed four-year
apprenticeship – in three years specializing in rare, half-flying
tourbillon.. he also obtained his Master Watchmaker certificate. .

Thomas Prescher Triple Axis Tourbillon Trilogy TP.TAT.R No 5 Platinum
polished round shaped case …. To date this is the ultimate Tourbillon watch… Swiss luxury watch maker Thomas Prescher Triple Axis Tourbillon Regulator: The world’s only triple-axis flying tourbillon wristwatch. A triple-axis tourbillon is extremely rare; a triple-axis tourbillon wristwatch
even more so. However, Thomas Prescher’s triple-axis flying tourbillon
is not simply extremely rare – it is absolutely unique. First triple
axis tourbillon wristwatch with constant force mechanism in the
carriage. At this extreme level of micro-mechanical sophistication and
miniaturization, it is not only a technical masterpiece of
watchmaking, but it is above all a piece of art that draws our eyes to
it—magically—a kinetic sculpture of time, ceasing to be about
timekeeping… and becomes pure art… The Triple Axis Tourbillon Regulator
features one of the world’s most exclusive and most difficult
complications to assemble, set to stunning advantage in a jet-black
natural onyx dial that contrasts beautifully with the Platinum case.
Regulator-style hours and seconds are each indicated in their own
separate sub-dial, while the constantly animated tourbillon tracks the
minutes during its one-hour rotation. The skilled perfectionism of the
watchmakers is the ultimate guarantee that every timepiece coming from
the house Thomas Prescher is incomparably and unique, absolute
perfection. To quality and processing of the applied materials the
highest demands are set...

ensuring an ample supply of power to the escapement, the mechanism that
