Unveiling the Green Edition: A Chronograph Tourbillon Extravaganza
Step into the world of luxury timepieces, where the Louis Moinet Impulsion takes center stage with a bold new twist!
The Impulsion by Louis Moinet has always been a statement piece, combining the precision of a chronograph with the elegance of a tourbillon. For Dubai Watch Week 2025, this extraordinary watch brand has upped the ante with the Impulsion Titanium Green, a limited-edition masterpiece that will leave you in awe.
But here's where it gets controversial... This stunning timepiece blends carbon, smoked sapphire, and a vibrant green-and-red color palette, creating a unique and eye-catching design. The openworked movement, a signature feature of the original Impulsion, is showcased once again, adding to its allure.
Let's delve into the details of this extraordinary timepiece:
The Louis Moinet Impulsion Titanium Green retains its iconic 42.5mm Grade-5 titanium case, known for its crisp facets and precise craftsmanship. However, this edition takes it up a notch with polished bevels that contrast beautifully against satin and micro-bead-blasted surfaces. The cut-outs on the sides reveal a black-tinted inner frame, adding a touch of mystery. With a thickness of 14.75mm, the watch sits comfortably and securely on the wrist.
And this is the part most people miss... The design ensures a low and stable profile, despite its impressive size, thanks to its thoughtful engineering.
Moving on to the dial, this special edition pays homage to Dubai Watch Week with a deep green chapter ring, marking the minutes, and red hash marks that give it a sporty, motorsport-inspired vibe. The smoked sapphire counters for running seconds and the 30-minute totalizer float above a carbon fiber mainplate, creating a stunning visual effect. The faceted, skeletonized, and lumed hour and minute hands ensure legibility, while the red-tipped chronograph pointers and the red index atop the tourbillon cage add a pop of color.
The hand-wound calibre LM114, developed in collaboration with Concepto, is a true masterpiece. Visible from both sides, it boasts a rare combination: a dial-side, column-wheel monopusher chronograph, controlled by a single pusher at 2 o'clock, and a flying tourbillon with an off-center cage that turns once per minute. The chronograph works and horizontal clutch are prominently displayed at 12 o'clock, while the tourbillon cage at 6 o'clock adds a dynamic element and symmetry to the design.
Powering this exquisite timepiece are twin barrels arranged in series, providing an impressive 96 hours of autonomy. The finishing touches are a perfect balance of functionality and aesthetic appeal, with straight graining and satin textures on the dial side, and broad Geneva waves and openwork on the back.
The Louis Moinet Titanium Green is presented on a preformed Louisiana alligator strap, dyed to match the green chapter ring, with red stitching that ties into the dial accents. The strap is lined with alligator leather and secured with a triple-blade folding clasp, ensuring a comfortable and secure fit. Created exclusively for Dubai Watch Week 2025, the Impulsion Titanium Green is limited to just 12 pieces, making it a highly sought-after collector's item.
Official pricing has not been announced, but it is expected to be around CHF 110,000 (excluding taxes).
