THE COMPLICATIONS AND FEATURES
IofIII
THE LOCAL TIME INDICATION
The crown located at 4 o'clock drives the central hours and minutes. This main display area is logically the local time. Changing it also changes the second time zone indication, located in the case extension, in order to synchronize both displays.
IIofIII
THE SECOND TIME ZONE WITH SPLIT-FLAP DISPLAY
The split-flap display is activated with a dedicated pusher, located on the side of the tubular case extension. Every push moves both flap displays. They show a reference city and the time it is in that city. Logically, this second time zone indication is a distant one, or it can be the wearer's home-time when they're away on a trip.

THE FLYING TOURBILLON
Gravity naturally has a negative impact on a movement's accuracy. By putting its escapement into a constant spin, the tourbillon counteracts this natural defect. In the process, it becomes a rotating, fascinating and prestigious creation, a manifestation of expertise and craft, designed for chronometry. As the off-centered tourbillon carriage in caliber JCAA03 is held only by its base, it has no upper bridge, making it a flying tourbillon.
