Is it possible to scale up the mechanical movement in watches, including the escapement mechanism and the tourbillon?
Can you explain what the escapement mechanism and the tourbillon are?
The escapement mechanism is essentially the heart of mechanical watches, as it's responsible for controlling the release of energy to the balance wheel, which in turn drives the motion of the hands. The tourbillon, on the other hand, is a complex mechanism that is designed to counteract the effects of gravity on the movement, making it more accurate.
