Description
Astronomia Revolution brings a new dimension to contemporary watchmaking : its entire movement revolves around its axis in 60seconds. Encased in a 47mm sapphire and rose gold case, this timepiece is powered by caliber JCAM48B, which carries a double-axis flying tourbillon, with the entire movement's rotation serving as a third axis. A patented constant force escapement harnesses the massive energy generated by its rapid rotation. The timepiece features an 18-mirror array made of polished red gold, inspired by the James Webb Space Telescope. A spinning arrow with a ruby head, resembling a space probe, shows the seconds. Astronomia Revolution is a masterpiece of creativity, innovation and a technical prowess.
