COMPLICATIONS & FEATURES
IofV
THE CRANK AND CROWN
The Opera Godfather Minute Repeater is wound by hand, using the crank at 3 o'clock. In one direction, it winds the movement. In the other, the music box. Jacob & Co. designed it like a violin, whose neck folds and spins. With a music box pusher at 10 o'clock and a minute repeater slide underneath it, the caseband of the Opera Godfather Minute Repeater is highly unusual. The time-setting crown is located on the caseback, a frequent feature in Jacob & Co. complicated watches.

THE MUSIC BOX
The musical part of caliber JCFM07 is its unique signature. It plays The Godfather's main theme by Nino Rota with a music box mechanism. It relies on a pair of cylinders, tilted at a 20-degree angle. They're covered with steel pins that lift the music comb blades. The melody lasts 30 seconds in a unique setting.
IIIofV
THE TRIPLE-AXIS FLYING TOURBILLON
The tourbillon fitted in caliber JCFM07 is of an exceptional type. It's held only by its lower end, with no upper bridge. This makes it a flying tourbillon. The carriage is shaped like a sphere, rotating along three axes. This triple-axis structure enhances the benefits of the tourbillon.

THE GODFATHER'S UNIVERSE
Opera Godfather Minute Repeater is a functional tribute to The Godfather, and a visual one. Key symbols of the book and movie are an integral part of the movement. The piano hiding pieces of the music box is inscribed with Marlon Brando as the Don and the other comb cover is engraved with the famous puppeteer’ strings.

THE MINUTE REPEATER
Using the slide located on the left flank, the Opera Godfather Minute Repeater tells time with sound. The minute repeater function is one of the most prestigious ones in the watchmaking repertoire. It chimes the hours, quarters and minutes, down to the minute, and can repeat the operation as many times as requested.
