An architect and designer by trade, it is no surprise that Alain Silberstein’s timepieces feature some of the most unique aesthetic choices you'll see through the use of bright colors, odd geometric shapes, and distinctive artistry. Founded in 1987, Alain Silberstein represents the less serious side of watchmaking without sacrificing quality, craftsmanship, or attention to detail – tenants of modern fine horology. With the brand no longer producing watches of their own, Alain Silberstein’s influence on the industry is now represented through collaborations or discontinued pieces like the Tourbillon Volant ref. TMA1-002 that we have here. Launched in 2004 as a limited edition series of just 9 pieces, this timepiece features the hours, minutes, a pointer date and a 60-second tourbillon that sit atop its skeletonized blue dial. A stainless steel timepiece packed with complications that contrast its playful design in such a way that highlights the brand’s overarching desire to appeal to watchmaking’s most important tenants while not getting too lost in an otherwise fun contemporary design, this watch is a perfect example of what made Alain Silberstein so popular in the brand’s hay-day.

Watch is in overall excellent condition. There are light scratches on the case, sides, and bezel. The display case back has very clear engravings around the edge. The dial and hands are in excellent condition. There are minor marks and scratches visible on the surface of the crystal. The steel bracelet has light scratches and signs of wear on the links and clasp, with light play between the links. The bracelet currently fits a 6 3/4" wrist and has 14 links, with 4 additional links included. Comes with box, paperwork, and a warranty from a pre-owned dealer.

A rich blend of intriguing design and functional complications, Alain Silberstein's timepieces meet the needs of its wearers while also injecting their collection with something unique and unusual.
