REBELLION 540 MAGNUM TOURBILLON Automotive-inspired magnesium, aluminum, titanium and carbon fiber movement; extra-large tourbillon; 14-day power reserve; and race-winning carbon fiber case Rarely has a timepiece reflected its creators’ experience and expertise so appositely as the 540 Magnum Tourbillon by Rebellion, embodying as it does the Swiss brand’s deep involvement – and success – with Rebellion Racing in endurance car racing. Rebellion Racing is a winner. Two-time winner of the FIA LMP1 World Endurance Trophies; two-time winner of the Petite Le Mans ALMS race; winner of the Le Mans Series LMP1 Team Championship; and winner of the Le Mans Series LMP1 Manufacture Championship. The 540 Magnum Tourbillon is yet another Rebellion winner. Where Rebellion Racing excels in endurance car racing, Rebellion Timepieces excels in endurance watchmaking. The 540 Magnum’s engine – the proprietary REB T-14 movement – has a competition-honed 14-day power reserve. Power is generated by relief-engraved twin mainspring barrels – in series for optimal performance – and regulated by a finely tuned, large-diameter, 60-second tourbillon escapement. And just like a top-class racing car, through clever design and the harnessing of the latest material technology, the 540 Magnum chassis and shell are engineered to be super lightweight while retaining maximum rigidity The T-14 features a large-diameter, ceramicized-magnesium tourbillon cage. The mainplate and ¾ back plate are respectively crafted from aluminum and race-inspired carbon fiber, setting the tone for a cutting-edge sandwich of aluminum and carbon fiber layers throughout the movement. The imposing case – constructed modularly in high-tech carbon fiber – is complemented by a race-ready natural rubber strap and bespoke double folding buckle. Rebellion Timepieces are so into racing that with the 540 Magnum, they are literally and figuratively wearing their heart on their sleeve thanks to the eye-catching openwork dial. The balance wheel – the beating heart of the timepiece – rotates proudly in the raised, crenelated tourbillon cage at 4 o’clock. The dual mainspring barrels, double braced titanium bridges and gear train – all featuring automotive architecture and motifs – provide a technically rich backdrop to the central skeletonized hour and minute hands, skeletonized retrograde seconds lever to the left of the tourbillon cage at 6 o’clock and two power reserve displays: An at-a-glance, chain-driven arrowhead at 9 o’clock, plus a precision indicator on a roller at 7 o’clock. The Rebellion 540 Magnum Tourbillon is a limited edition of 10 pieces with carbon fiber case.
