Abstract

The movement has balance wheels (33) operating in resonance, and a tourbillon frame (30) and a pallet (31) maintaining movement of one of the wheels. A gear train (28) connects barrels (22, 24) to the frame and the pallet. The wheels, the frame and the pallet are pivotingly mounted on a roller (34) that is balanced with reference to an axis. An arbor connects the roller to another frame and is oriented along the axis.
