Singularity - Time is no longer measured. It is lived.
In astrophysics, a wormhole connects two distant points in space-time. On one side, it materializes as a black hole, and on the other, as a white hole. The Wormhole, our former now sold-out piece, contained these two extremities in a single piece, one on the front, the other on the back. Singularity separates them and turns them into two watches, animated by the same flying tourbillon suspended in the center of the dial. Black Hole is the entrance to the passage.
The entrance to the passageway
A singularity is the point located at the heart of a black hole. The place where known laws cease to apply, where matter no longer has volume, where time is no longer a measurable quantity.
Black Hole is built around this point. The dial is a black lacquer that doesn't reveal itself head-on. Grazing light is needed for the material to awaken and for the gradient to appear between the area that catches the light and the one that sinks into it. The case and bracelet are made of grade 2 titanium treated with black PVD, a material that absorbs rather than reflects, and that is forgotten on the wrist due to its lightness.
In the center, the flying tourbillon rotates without an upper bridge and without visible attachment. It is the only point on the watch that truly captures light, like the accretion disk of an object that sucks in everything around it. You don't look at it to tell the time. You look at it because you can't help but do so.
Beneath the octagonal case band, a sapphire case back opens onto the movement. The exit from the passage, on the other side of the wrist.
It's not just about telling time. It's about living it.
All about the Black Hole
This space "wormhole" - The case.
This "wormhole" in the space-time of your life is materialized, at the watch case level, by a superposition of different geometric shapes: a racy octagonal case, inspired by spaceship portholes, topped with a round bezel that softens the lines of the case and encloses the dial.
The "black hole" - The dial
The dial is the "black hole".
The Black Hole dial is a deep black lacquer, applied and then polished to a surface free of grain or parasitic reflections.
From the front, it does not reveal itself: it absorbs light instead of reflecting it, and only shows the vortex at its center. It takes a grazing light for it to awaken and for the gradient to appear between the area that catches and the one that plunges. It is a dial that is not looked at, it is caught by surprise.
Sumptuous and mesmerizing - The central Tourbillon
At the center of the dial reigns a sumptuous and mesmerizing central flying Tourbillon, the queen complication of fine watchmaking.
It rotates and inexorably draws you into the watch's inner workings.
Ultra Black - The bracelet and the crown
A black bracelet that abandons leather for grade 2 titanium, black PVD-treated like the case. Brushed links and polished edges seamlessly extend the case to a folding clasp. The watch becomes a single, cohesive object, lighter than it appears.
And a ball-shaped crown combining aesthetics, practicality, and sensuality, enhances the whole, in a concern for detail, a quest for quality, and a thirst for experience that borders on obsession.

Answers to your questions about our tourbillons
A flying tourbillon at this price, why and how?
We noticed a significant gap in the watch market between:
- Swiss Made tourbillon watches: beautiful and very well finished, but excessively expensive and therefore inaccessible to the majority of enthusiasts (often over 20,000 CHF).
- Tourbillon watches from Asian manufacturers and assemblers. Much cheaper, but very unreliable and often without any after-sales service...
At Blackout, you therefore choose a unique hybrid model that combines the know-how and expertise of our Swiss watchmakers with the reliability and accessibility of Asian components.
Thanks to our watchmakers certified by over 26 major brands, and our head of watchmaking David, a former tourbillon case assembler who worked for Patek Philippe for example, we have developed a method for making Asian tourbillons more reliable.
How do you make your tourbillon reliable?
The Blackout method was developed after testing and modifying thousands of Asian tourbillons.
We realized that neglecting several details was the cause of many technical defects in the movements.
We carry out a series of tests and modifications to eliminate the risks of malfunction.
Among these modifications, certain elements of the movement that are considered too unreliable are replaced by custom-made parts produced in Switzerland.
Our tourbillons are therefore completely transformed in our workshops in Geneva, Switzerland, before being cased in their housings.
How will I be supported after my purchase?
If you're already a customer, you know this, and if you're new to us, know that we've developed the most efficient customer service on the market! We understand how important it is to support you and be close to you; that's what sets us apart.
Should you wish to revise a model, or in case of any other issue, our after-sales service is quick and transparent, and replacement is just as efficient.
The rest cannot be put into words
You don't have to choose between discovering it and ordering it. The Black Hole leaves Geneva assembled, checked, and insured. You receive it, you wear it, you experience it for thirty days. If it doesn't suit you, you return it and you are reimbursed, with no justification required thanks to our return policy.
You are not ordering from a simple online store. Before and after purchase, for a simple question, an adjustment, or a bracelet resizing, one of our advisors will answer you. Each piece is covered by a three-year international warranty, and our Genevan watchmakers service it for life.
And if you prefer to try it on before deciding, it awaits you in Geneva, Paris, and Lyon, in one of our three physical boutiques.
