A world first the spherical tourbillion by Jaeger-LeCoultre is writing a new chapter in the art of watchmaking.Nesting at the heart of

What I know is that, they have a build in "Tourbillion" which is spherical in position which makes them unique and because of this mechanism, u can ensure that the watch is damn accurate because no matter where u are, the tourbillion will keep on moving forever, helps the watch to defeat the gravitational forces and keep the clock accurate.

In a more chim terms : A tourbillion is a device designed to reduce the position errors of a watch. This device has the escape wheel, lever and balance wheel all mounted in a carriage of light frameworks. The carriage turns 360 degrees at regular intervals (usually once per minute). The fourth wheel is fixed and is concentric with the carriage pinion and arbor. The escape wheel pinion meshes with the fourth wheel and will rotate around the fixed fourth wheel in the manner of satellite. The escape wheel and lever are mounted on the carriage, and the third wheel drives the carriage pinion, turning the carriage once every minute. This rotation of the escapement will help reduce the position errors of a watch
