YSF Edition — American Crocodile Leather
The YSF execution of the Excalibur Skeleton Double Flying Tourbillon represents a significant technical milestone within replica horology. By successfully cloning the RD001 architecture, this release moves beyond mere visual mimicry to offer two fully operational flying tourbillons in a 45mm DLC-coated titanium case. It establishes a demanding benchmark for high-complication replicas, prioritizing mechanical stability over theoretical power reserves.
Powered by the custom YSF clone RD001 manual-winding caliber, the movement features twin tourbillon cages operating at a uniform speed to mitigate positional variance. The complex gear train requires substantial torque to drive both escapements, yielding a strict power reserve of Approximately 36 hours. Careful manual winding is essential, as the mainspring tension is inherently high and requires mechanical sympathy from the user.
The 45mm case is machined from lightweight titanium with a durable DLC coating, maintaining the aggressive 13mm thickness profile of the genuine reference. The heavily skeletonized dial incorporates subtle dark green text annotations, contrasting effectively against the star-shaped bridges and exposed geartrain.
- Movement: Clone RD001 Manual Winding — Approximately 36 hours
- Case Material: DLC-Coated Titanium, 45mm diameter, 13mm thickness
- Bezel: DLC Titanium, notched profile
- Crystal: Scratch-Proof Sapphire with colorless AR coating
- Bracelet: American crocodile leather with original-spec RD folding buckle
- Water Resistance: 30m stated rating — professional pressure test recommended before swimming
This reference is suited for collectors who appreciate avant-garde horology and possess the mechanical understanding required to operate a dual-tourbillon complication. It is a statement piece demanding careful handling rather than a daily-wear tool watch.
