The Bugatti Chiron, a symbol of power and performance on four wheels, serves as the muse for Jacob & Co.'s horological masterpiece. Drawing inspiration from its exterior contours, the Bugatti Chiron Tourbillon echoes the car's design language, capturing its essence in every detail. From the iconic horseshoe grille to the muscular bodywork, every facet of the Chiron finds its reflection in the watch's intricate case.

But the true marvel lies within. For the first time in watchmaking history, Jacob & Co. engineers have crafted a movement that mirrors the intricate mechanics of a motor engine. The Caliber JCAM37, inspired by Bugatti's legendary W16 engine, defies conventions with its unique architecture. Featuring a miniature 16-cylinder engine block automaton, this mechanical marvel comprises 578 individual components meticulously assembled to perfection.

Innovative Horology

One cannot help but marvel at the Bugatti Chiron Tourbillon's animation, a nod to the automotive world's heritage. With the press of a button, the transparent sapphire reveals a mesmerizing spectacle: 16 pistons firing in synchrony, driven by a single-block crankshaft. This 15-second sequence brings the timepiece to life, evoking the spirit of the Bugatti Chiron in every heartbeat.

At the heart of this horological masterpiece lies a flying tourbillon, tilted at a daring 30-degree angle. This ingenious design not only enhances accuracy but also adds a cinematic flair to the timekeeping experience. Coupled with a 60-hour power reserve indicated by a fuel gauge-type indicator, the Bugatti Chiron Tourbillon is a testament to uncompromising excellence.

Control and Elegance

In true Jacob & Co. fashion, the Bugatti Chiron Tourbillon redefines elegance with its innovative crown placement. Eschewing traditional side crowns, three separate crowns adorn the 6 o'clock flank of the case, allowing precise control over timekeeping functions and animation activation.

More than just a timepiece, the Bugatti Chiron Tourbillon is a statement—a sculptural masterpiece that transcends boundaries. It's a conversation starter, a symbol of luxury, and a testament to human ingenuity. With each glance, it embodies the spirit of innovation, pushing the boundaries of what's possible in both automotive and horological realms.

In a world where precision meets passion, the Bugatti Chiron Tourbillon stands alone—an emblem of craftsmanship, elegance, and the relentless pursuit of excellence. Inspired by the impossible, crafted for those who dare to dream.
