ABOUT THE MOVEMENT
A haute horlogerie movement by Jacob & Co. that transcends any conventional code of watchmaking, calibre JCAM19 is the mechanism that runs the extraordinary Astronomia Solar watches. This hand-wound calibre, comprising no less than 447 components, is one of the brand’s most complicated and advanced movements. It carries a three-dimensional vertical architecture featuring three arms bearing unique rotating components. The first arm holds a sub-dial to display the time with a patented differential system, ensuring that the 12 o’clock marker is always upright. The second arm features a 60-second twin-axis flying tourbillon in an open-worked rotating carriage. Finally, the third arm displays a globe, rotating in 60 seconds on its axis. All these elements, along with rotating gemstone planets, are placed atop a platform that also rotates but counterclockwise. Additionally, a 1.5-carat citrine as the Sun is placed at the centre. This extraordinary movement runs at 28,800bph and offers a power reserve of 48 hours.
