Moinet Meteoris – Four Tourbillons United in a Planetarium
A unique objet d’art in haute horologerie style, Meteoris unites legendary meteorites
and a depiction of the solar system in truly spectacular fashion.
Meteoris is composed of four tourbillons and a new form of planetarium.
1st “METEORIS” Tourbillon: MARS
This tourbillon presents a meteorite from the planet Mars, finely inlaid into
a hand-engraved dial and adorned with an astrolabe-type appliqué,
serving as a reminder of the ties between man and the cosmos.
This is a world first, since no stone from Mars had ever yet been used in watchmaking.

The case of this unique model is crafted from 18kt white gold set with 56 baguette-cut
Top Wesselton VVS diamonds totalling 3.46 carats. It features the meteorite
called “Jiddat al Haraiss 479”, found in 2008 in the Sultanate of Oman.
It has been authenticated as originating in Mars by the Russian Academy of Sciences,
based in Moscow.
2nd “METEORIS” Tourbillon: ROSETTA STONE
The meteorite used in this model has been nicknamed the “Rosetta Stone”
because it is the oldest known rock in the solar system and the oldest
meteorite ever found on earth – with an estimated age of 4,566,200,000 years.

The extremely complicated case of this unique model is crafted in
18kt rose gold and comprises 50 different parts.
It features the meteorite “Sahara 99555” found in 1999 in the Sahara Desert.
It possibly originated in Mercury and has been authenticated by the
Institute für Planetology of Münster, Germany.

3rd “METEORIS” Tourbillon: ASTEROID
The meteorite adorning the hand-engraved dial comes from Itqiy,
a mysterious asteroid that was formed near the sun.
Itqiy has provided invaluable scientific information on the formation
of the solar system, while its own origin remains a mystery.
The “Asteroid” tourbillon is presented in an 18kt white gold case set with baguette-cut
diamonds and engraved with the legend “Pièce Unique”.
As with the other tourbillons, a hand engraving on the dial
depicts the meteorite’s trajectory towards the earth,
represented beneath the hands by a Pietersite gemstone.
This meteorite was found in the Western Sahara desert,
and has been authenticated by the University of Arizona at Tucson.

4th ”METEORIS” Tourbillon: MOON
The first tourbillon to picture an authentic lunar meteorite,
“Moon” is distinguished by its dark structure featuring a number of fine occlusions.
This tourbillon watch is crafted in 18kt rose gold and fitted with a hand-sewn
crocodile leather strap lined with genuine alligator leather.
It features the meteorite “Dhofar 459” found in 2001 in the Sultanate of Oman.
It has been authenticated by the University of California at Los Angeles.
The Meteoris collection is housed in precious metal cases that measure 47mm
and are comprised of 50 different parts.
The case is also equipped with the Louis Moinet crown guard,
incorporating the stem in such a way as to enable easy replacement
if required (patent pending). The cases are water resistant to 30 meters
and feature double AR-coated sapphire crystals.

beating at 21,600 bph and with a power reserve of 72 hours.
