    What has me taken here, is that it's clearly a mechanically focussed piece, a way for Jaeger to show off how superb their work can be, but it is achingly beautiful too. Some of the show-off pieces from Pattek look gaudy and in some ways ugly compared to their reserved and classy usual work.

    • @LudicInterface
      @LudicInterface 4 года назад +1

      ​@@jimmyjay122 Not to be pedantic but the movement you are referring to in the Christophe Colomb is not a tourbillon. The movement is a "gyroscopic escapement" to be exact. This is a different movement mechanically with the wheel train contained within the gyroscopic module whilst a gyrotourbillon has the wheel train outside of the gyro mechanism. The gyrotourbillon is a design owned and patented by JLC with a handful of licensees like Jacob & Co.
