Jacob & Co Bugatti Chiron Tourbillon: As dynamic and fun as a supercar

Jacob & Co, for an in-depth look at the crazy Bugatti Chiron Tourbillon, the second timepiece created to celebrate the high quality cheap watches and jewelry brand's partnership with the iconic automaker.

While the first watch to commemorate the partnership is an existing Jacob model with some Bugatti-inspired details – the partnership is still so fresh that there’s little time for anything else — but the Chiron is brand new. We guarantee you haven't seen anything like this before!

The Bugatti Chiron Tourbillon swiss made replica watches has timekeeping almost as a side dish: the most striking part of the watch is the sapphire crystal engine block with 16 working "pistons" and a "crankshaft". It's fascinating to see these little pistons doing the same job as their life-size counterparts. Of course, there's no gas involved here: the animation is powered by a spring and activated as needed by a button on the bottom of the case.

Jacob & Co have paid great attention to detail, with the entire movement suspended on 'shock absorbers', which challenged the movement designers to ensure that the crown stem could handle the movement at a size it would not normally fit.

The power reserve indicator at 3 o'clock resembles a fuel tank display, and Jacob & Co replica luxury watches even made an "exhaust pipe" that extends from the "engine block," flanking the watch with a flying tourbillon at a 30-degree angle at the top. The tourbillon can be admired through a sapphire crystal window modeled on the famous Bugatti grille.

While certainly impressive, the tourbillon is more of a sideshow, as the engine block is so fascinating and very clearly the focal point. The whole watch is very eye-catching, like its automotive counterpart.

Jacob & Co needed a rather large case to display this miniature marvel, more like a lightweight titanium frame with a sapphire crystal window.

The mechanical mini-engine serves no real purpose at all, it's all about generating a massive fun factor, which is what it excels at! Buy replica watches
