A stunning watch inspired by the latest Bugatti hypercar has been unveiled.
New York based jewellery and watch maker Jacob & Co has created the Bugatti Tourbillon wristwatch with a retail price of $340,000 USD / €317.475 euros.
It has been made to commemorate the French car marque’s new Tourbillon model.
The new timepiece takes emulates a car engine, with a design that acknowledges ten design elements of the new car.
These include the front grille, radiator inlets and side windows.
The watch face has a miniature V16 engine block automaton that is made from a single block of transparent sapphire.
The block features a hand-wound movement with 557 individual components.
It makes 20 animated sequences on a single full wind—emulating the car the constant moving of the engine’s 16 pistons.
The pistons are moved by a tiny crankshaft said to be one of the most elaborate and difficult parts of the watch to craft.
