The BIVER Carillon Tourbillon Desert Rose

In a triumph of craftsmanship and aesthetic daring, BIVER unveils its latest horological work of art: The Carillon Tourbillon Desert Rose – a pièce d’exception where luminous mother-of-pearl and vivid ruby unite in refined brilliance. Encased in 18k rose gold and paired with a finely sculpted matching bracelet, this singular creation is an ode to refinement and neoclassical innovation.

From its inception, BIVER has stood for uncompromising artisanship – where ancient métiers d’art are reimagined through a thoroughly contemporary lens. With the Carillon Tourbillon Desert Rose, the Maison continues its tradition of transforming the technical archetype into a work of horological haute couture. Though the mechanical foundation remains anchored in precision – the tourbillon, minute repeater, and micro-rotor – the visual narrative is reinvented with a bold interplay of natural materials and rich textures.

An Iridescent Dialogue Between Pearl and Flame

The dial, sculpted from mother-of-pearl, offers a fluid, iridescent backdrop against sharply cut ruby hour markers radiate with scarlet intensity. While the dial becomes a luminous stage for the ruby’s angular brilliance, the central guilloché motif subtly mirrors the gemstone’s facets in a meticulously composed symphony of detail.

“There is a deep-rooted reverence for tradition in every element of this watch,” notes the Maison. “Yet, it is the audacious pairing and thoughtful tension between classic and modern that elevate it beyond homage into something transcendent.” The Carillon Tourbillon Desert Rose is an embodiment of BIVER’s philosophy: to look backward only as a means to leap forward.

A Singular Expression of Neoclassical Watchmaking

This unique piece exemplifies what BIVER terms neoclassical watchmaking – a discipline that honours the techniques and aesthetics of the past while liberating them from their historical constraints. Here, the mother-of-pearl and ruby – materials long employed in vintage horology – are recontextualized with elegance and verve, culminating in a composition that is undeniably of the moment, and unmistakably BIVER.

A Horological Dynasty Reimagined

Behind this creation lies a story of legacy and vision. Jean-Claude Biver, an influential figure in modern horology, has joined forces with his son Pierre Biver to redefine the very principles of fine Swiss watchmaking. With a shared passion for excellence and an independence of spirit unrestrained by the demands of corporate conformity, the Biver family has cultivated an atelier of virtuosos – each a luminary in their craft.

Launched in 2023, the eponymous brand made its debut with the Carillon Tourbillon, a timepiece that seamlessly integrated haute complication with artistic finesse. Now, with the Desert Rose, BIVER continues to forge a new chapter, one where technical gravitas and visual splendour come together in perfect balance.

The Carillon Tourbillon Desert Rose is a unique piece – a rare convergence of material rarity, design audacity, and horological mastery. The Carillon Tourbillon Desert Rose is available by private appointment for the true connoisseur.
