Compelling Style, Performance, and Value Unite in New Ritmo Mundo Pegasus Tourbillon, One of the World’s Most Affordable Tourbillon Watches Equipped with a Sapphire Crystal Case.
American watch brand Ritmo Mundo has introduced a new tourbillon complication to its Pegasus Collection – the first tourbillon watch model ever released by Ritmo Mundo in the brand’s 22 – year history. The crystal-clear tourbillon watch also upgrades the Pegasus models with a new, full synthetic sapphire crystal case top, designed to take the Pegasus watch collection to even greater heights. The Ritmo Mundo Pegasus Tourbillon retails for $12,900 USD, making it one of the most attainable sapphire case tourbillon watches on the global watch market today.
When Ritmo Mundo revealed the first Pegasus three-hand automatic watch model in February of 2024, the move signaled the L.A.-based watch brand’s intention to step into a new chapter with daring innovations, a bold aesthetic, and elevated product offerings. The sporty and striking Pegasus Tourbillon, with its hand-built tourbillon and sapphire crystal case top, reaffirms the brand’s commitment to excellence, as Ritmo Mundo soars into a new era, leading with disruptive yet attainable watches designed to answer savvy modern collectors’ needs and desires.For those in search of the perfect starter tourbillon watch or edgy everyday timepiece, the Pegasus Tourbillon is a clear winner,” says Ritmo Mundo brand founder Ali Soltani, continuing: “The Ritmo Mundo Pegasus Tourbillon is for all the collectors who were priced out of the market. The Pegasus Tourbillon’s solid build, enticing value, striking design, and undisputed value finally bring that grail tourbillon sapphire watch within reach.”
A Clear Winner – Introducing the Pegasus Tourbillon
With the Pegasus Tourbillon, Ritmo Mundo revisits the eye-catching, beveled case design of the original Automatic model in a 42 mm format, while introducing two key upgrades. First, the Pegasus Tourbillon upgrades the transparent case top to full synthetic sapphire crystal. Secondly, the brand introduces the first-ever tourbillon movement in any Ritmo Mundo collection. The hand-assembled tourbillon movement, with its gold-plated barrel, offers a frequency of 28,800/hour, and a three-day, 72-hour power reserve.
The case bottom remains the ultra-durable and scratch-resistant transparent glass material first featured in the Pegasus automatic. This groundbreaking glass material still stands the test of durability, ranking 7 on the Mohs hardness scale – comparable to many precious, hard-wearing gemstones. The clear, exceptionally durable Pegasus case offers a panoramic view of the tourbillon movement as well as its mineral-reinforced glass mirror dial and metal dial ring, accented in a choice of turquoise, blue, or black.
The timepiece’s elements are seamlessly assembled layer by layer, with the fully transparent sapphire crystal case top affixed to the mineral-reinforced glass mirror dial and separate transparent crystal case back below by means of stainless-steel screws. The ergonomically engineered case clocks in at 11.5 mm thick.
Built to Wear, Built to Last
Ethereal appearance aside, the durable, scratch-resistant Pegasus Tourbillon shines as an everyday watch. The watch’s luminous, pointer-style hands ensure legibility by day or night. It elevated detailing also includes a crystal crown and a fluorine rubber strap equipped with a 316L stainless steel clasp pin buckle clasp. Pegasus Tourbillon is also corrosion, mold, and moisture-resistant thanks to its sealed back cover, and its 3-day, 72-hour power reserve ensures it is long-wearing.
The Pegasus collection launch marks an inflection point for the long-established L.A.-based watch brand. The company has set its sights on the future and plans to archive much of the preexisting Ritmo Mundo product catalog to focus on modern, innovative, and attainable luxury timepiece collections – leading the way with Pegasus.
According to Soltani, “The new Pegasus Tourbillon is a testament to Ritmo Mundo’s maturation and development after 22 years in business. As we look to the future – ‘Ritmo Mundo 2.0’ – we are committed to evolving and pushing the limits in our goal to make high-end watchmaking innovations and finishes more accessible.”
