It’s been more than 10 years since I first met Stephen Forsey, one half of the horological duo known as Greubel Forsey (Robert Greubel being the other half, of course). Our first long talk – which come to think of it was also our first talk, period – was at a dinner in Manhattan, and I remember it very vividly for several reasons. For one thing, it was the first time I’d had a chance to see one of the brand’s exotic and much-talked about tourbillons in person. That’s not something one easily forgets. Probably the most memorable part of the night, however, was being able to ask Stephen a lot of questions, and to get a better idea what had inspired him and his partner to create their very beautifully made, very technically challenging multi-axis tourbillons.
