What Makes the Bugatti Chiron Diamonds and Rubies a Rare Tourbillon Watch to Buy

The Jacob & Co Bugatti Chiron Tourbillon Baguette Diamonds and Rubies combines several qualities sought by collectors of ultra-luxury watches: a complex mechanical movement, Bugatti-inspired engineering, precious gemstones, and one-of-one exclusivity. Its white diamonds and intense red rubies complement the automotive styling, while the animated W16 engine block and inclined flying tourbillon create an impressive mechanical spectacle. For collectors searching for an exclusive Jacob & Co. Bugatti watch, its Pièce Unique status makes this white gold creation particularly desirable.

Design and Craftsmanship

The 55 x 44 mm case is crafted from 18K white gold and sapphire crystal, with a substantial 22 mm height that accommodates the three-dimensional JCAM37 movement. An anti-reflective sapphire crystal and sapphire elements in the caseback provide extensive views of the mechanical architecture.

The case is invisibly set with 266 white baguette-cut diamonds totaling approximately 10.68 carats and 73 rubies totaling approximately 4.08 carats. Additional diamonds and rubies decorate the crowns, while ceramic components provide a technical contrast to the precious materials.

A rhodium-plated dial with red indices and a red “EB” Bugatti logo continues the ruby-inspired color scheme. Rhodium-plated skeletonized hands feature red and luminescent tips for a distinctive finishing touch.

Movement and Performance

The watch is powered by the hand-wound Jacob & Co. JCAM37 caliber, composed of 578 components and 51 jewels. Operating at 21,600 vibrations per hour (3 Hz), it provides approximately 60 hours of power reserve.

Its defining automotive complication is the W16 engine-block automaton, inspired by the engineering architecture of the Bugatti Chiron. The mechanism transforms the watch into a miniature mechanical performance rather than a conventional time display.

A one-minute flying tourbillon inclined at 30 degrees adds another dimension of movement and technical sophistication. The caliber also incorporates hours and minutes along with a power reserve indicator positioned at 9 o'clock.
