Jacob & Co. has launched a new watch called the Casino Tourbillon, which is a playful and unique take on traditional watchmaking. It is the successor to the Astronomia Casino, which featured a fully functional roulette wheel. However, the Casino Tourbillon is easier to wear and more compact, while still maintaining the same sense of excitement and ingenuity that Jacob & Co. is known for.

The watch features the new Caliber JCAM51 movement, which includes a Roulette module that sits on top of a last-generation base caliber. It has a power reserve of 72 hours, making it perfect for a weekend in Vegas. The tourbillon is located on the back side of the case, and the arms are engraved with the letters "Jacob & Co." in the same way as the wheel.

The watch is a genuine roulette game, with a fully random game of chance. The pusher propels the wheel, which includes 37 pockets, one green, 18 red, and 18 black, along with a white ceramic ball. The mechanical construction rests on ball bearings of extremely high quality, which allows the wheel to spin with high speed and very little friction, resulting in a truly random game.

The case is made of 18K rose gold and is polished to perfection. It is fitted with four full lugs, and the black alligator strap curve slims down the profile of the watch for a more comfortable fit. The hours and minutes dial is made of black mirror-polished onyx, which gives the watch a luxurious and sleek appearance. The black PVD flange contains eight diamond-shaped deflectors, which aim to increase the variance level of the roulette game.

The Casino Roulette Tourbillon is a high-end watch, retailing for $280,000. It is a unique and playful take on traditional watchmaking and is sure to be a hit with collectors and enthusiasts alike. Learn all about it at Jacob & Co.
