The excellence of a KERBEDANZ timepiece resides in both its architecture and its materials. With the MAXIMUS GR8, we introduced a tourbillon movement of unprecedented scale, requiring entirely custom components.

This movement has been redesigned and refined to achieve a more contemporary aesthetic, embodying precision, reliability, and modern elegance through KERBEDANZ’s patented technologies.

Like the MAXIMUS 6MIN Tourbillon, the GR8 edition carries the same legacy. In ancient Rome, the title Maximus was given to the high priest of the College of Pontiffs, guardian of sacred rites and the Empire’s Great Annals.

Later adopted by emperors, it came to symbolize supreme greatness — a grandeur embodied by the Circus Maximus, the vast arena built in the 6th century BC for horse and chariot races.

The MAXIMUS GR8 embodies bold innovation, moving beyond classical heritage to express a truly avant-garde vision. With its sculptural futuristic case and a tourbillon rotating three times faster than its predecessor, it represents a feat of precision and mastery.

Each second becomes a display of motion and control, a fusion of design and mechanics that redefines time. More than a timepiece, the MAXIMUS GR8 stands as a symbol of speed, elegance, and innovation without limits.

The monumental central tourbillon of the MAXIMUS GR8, housed beneath a sapphire dome and shaped like a three-branched star, reveals the complexity of its mechanism.

Its integration within the movement, dial, and case was a remarkable technical achievement that preserves KERBEDANZ’s watchmaking tradition. Visible from the dial side, the tourbillon completes one rotati

The hour and minute discs are visible, each carrying specially crafted hands. The large transparent sapphire crystal, with anti-reective coating, features a complex tonneau-octagonal-spherical design that both showcases and protects the dial and tourbillon.

This architecture provides enough space for the tourbillon’s height while keeping the case elegantly slim.
