Jacob & Co. pursues every horological complication while inventing new ones. Among the rarest is the automaton, long used in clocks but far more complex in watches. Reimagined in a bold, modern universe, Oil Pump is a three-dimensional animated oil well built from watchmaking components.
Caliber JCAM33 is one of the rare automaton movements made for wristwatches. With 510 components, it blends high watchmaking and storytelling, giving each complication a narrative role on the dial.
The downward-facing tourbillon mimics a drill bit piercing the Earth. Suspended on a bridge, it is a flying double-axis tourbillon rotating in 1 minute on one axis and 2.5 minutes on the other.
Oil Pump is a powerful, large-scale depiction of an oil well. It reflects oil’s vital yet controversial role in society, standing as a symbol of wealth, power, and industrial achievement.
