Perrelet works in collaboration with seconde/seconde/ to create an exclusive Turbine design defined by its black-DLC-coated titanium case. The watch measures 41mm in diameter and it features a dial that reads the message "Keep Hands Clear." This is joined by a yellow tonal triangle that indicates a warning sign that replaces the traditional central second's hand.
The hour and minute hands are also redesigned and it takes on the look of lume-filled blades. This rests just under the Perrelet logo which is a vibrant yellow inscription that reads "1777 days since last injury.” The exclusive design is fueled by the P-331-MH caliber, this is an in-house self-winding movement that is backed by a 42-hour power reserve.
