Jacob & Co. Astronomical Tourbillon
On the 1st day of 2017, I desired to present one of the most spectacular wrist watches I've ever seen rapid the Jacob & Co Astronomical Tourbillon. Jacob & Co. ASTRONOMIA SKY 750. 110. 40. AA. SD. 1NS
Before I actually start with information about this superstar beast, I would like to ask one to meet this watch in case it is possible for you. You will never have regrets.
The first variation features an 18K rose gold colored case with a diameter of fifty mm and a thickness involving 25 mm, with a sky-blue viewing hole on the side regarding unobstructed views. The caseback is wound and time-setting by means of two 18K rose gold colored lifting and rotating " bows".

Front look at: central hour and second hands, rotating every something like 20 minutes Axes as well as moon formed by faceted spherical diamonds (288 areas of 1 carat cut instructions exclusive Jacob & C. patent) rotating on a couple of axes for 60 seconds, Magnesium lacquered globe and gravitational tourbillon rotating on several axes for 60 seconds Cases rotating on three responsable: 1st axis within 1 minute, 2nd axis within a moment, 3rd axis - core axis within 20 mins. The tourbillon features typically the J& Co logo within the frame - a nice feel, rather than ruining the Aventurin background with text.

The dial is constructed of magnesium - an unusual selection for a dial, but the excess weight of the gear system that will help balance everything. Lacquered Both roman numerals at 12/3/6 and also 9 o'clock. The palms are gun blue, angled and polished.
An exclusive Jacob & Company. manual-winding movement was created in this watch: JCAM10 - 3-axis gravity tourbillon with smooth hairspring. With a diameter connected with 40 mm and a level of 17. 15 millimeter, this movement consists of 365 components, 42 jewels and possesses a power reserve of 62 hours (low beat regularity: 21600 vph or three or more Hz) - impressive. As expected, often the finishes are impressive: hand-slanted and polished cleats along with bridges, all with side-painting, rounded textures and finished sinks. The screws are usually polished, the barrel includes a round texture, and the pinion used is tapered. Since bearings, 4 mechanical basketball bearing units are used. The key material used is ti - which makes the movements very strong, but also more difficult to be able to manufacture, as titanium is significantly harder than gold or perhaps steel.
