MegaWind is powered by the beautifully engineered, Jean-Marc Wiederrecht-designed HM3 engine. Placing the rotor and regulator on the dial side required flipping the movement upside down – possible thanks to two large ceramic bearings visible through the display back. Rotating displays of this size and shape generated a number of technical headaches: the cones are machined from solid blocks of aluminum, chosen for its optimal strength to weight ratio, and reducing energy requirements to an absolute minimum.

Close inspection of the case reveals a myriad of carefully considered details: the bespoke clover-head gold screws, the cleverly integrated lugs attaching the strap, and the beveled perimeter of the rotor display crystal that adds visual flair as the angles catch and reflect flashes of light.
