The Graff Grand Date Dual Time Tourbillon is just as visually impressive as it is technically. Not only does it feature several complications including the flying tourbillon, its diamonds, totalling approximately 7-9 carats, are affixed using Graff's patented Invisible Mosaic setting technique.    For a watch so heavily diamond-set it remains surprisingly versatile. One might go so far as to say that the diamonds themselves provide a certain neutrality, then further accentuated by the pink gold beneath. It may even be argued that if this emphasis was reversed the watch would be harder to wear. 

Consigned by the original owner, this important Graff tourbillon wristwatch has a staggering retail price of close to 10 million Hong Kong Dollars.
