Jacob & Co.’s New Bugatti Chiron Tourbillon Emulates the Iconic 16-Cylinder Engine

Today, Jacob & Co. and Bugatti unveiled their latest creation: the Bugatti Chiron Tourbillon. After nearly a year of meticulous development, this watch pays homage to the legendary Chiron supercar and recreates the feel of the famous Bugatti 16-cylinder engine.

Designed in a stunning rich blue hue inspired by the Chiron’s flowing lines, the fully transparent sapphire crystal case reveals every aspect of the JCAM37 manual-winding movement’s 578 hand-decorated and hand-assembled components, including a fully functional replica of the Bugatti W16 engine. As the Jacob & Co. brand continues to push the boundaries of craftsmanship, the design of the case is a true testament to its expertise and high watchmaking prowess. best replica watch site

Powering the chronograph functions and the 60-second flying tourbillon is the same movement that powers the recreation of the Bugatti W16 engine housed within the case. When the automatic is activated, the “engine” starts to work, its 16 pistons pumping and the two turbochargers spinning, a groundbreaking feature of the watch. The Bugatti Chiron Tourbillon features a 30º inclined tourbillon, marking the first time that Jacob & Co. has used an inclined tourbillon.

Following the two watches launched in 2019 to kick off the partnership, the Twin Turbo Furious and the Epic X Chrono, the new Bugatti Chiron Tourbillon further embodies the exceptional partnership between Jacob & Co. and Bugatti.
