The wild centerpiece of this six-figure timepiece is a jaw-dropping animated oil derrick.

Five years after its initial release, Jacob & Co. unveils a revamped version of its highly eye-catching Oil Pump watch. Famous for its complex automatic that depicts an oil derrick at work, this horological marvel has been upgraded with cutting-edge enhancements that further elevate its functionality and design.

The Oil Pump watch still displays the swinging motion of an oil derrick, now activated by a pusher at the 1:30 position. This mesmerizing animation lasts 35 seconds and can bring the watch to life on demand. The new Oil Pump is driven by Jacob & Co.’s exclusive manual-winding JCAM53 movement, which has 450 components. It features a single-axis flying tourbillon that completes one rotation in 60 seconds, allowing for a more compact, more wearable design. See the Oil Pump in action in the video here:

The redesigned case is reduced to 44mm in diameter and 18mm in thickness for greater comfort while maintaining its luxurious look. The use of 18K rose gold and sapphire, along with a unique domed sapphire crystal with anti-reflective treatment, highlights fake Jacob & Co.’s luxurious craftsmanship.

Every detail on the dial is meticulously crafted and hand-finished, transforming an oil extraction scene into a work of art. The hour and minute indicators are elegantly displayed with Roman numerals, surrounded by rose gold-plated derricks, barrels and pipes. The watch’s black alligator leather strap features an 18K rose gold and titanium buckle.

The watch’s 72-hour power reserve is creatively displayed via a pressure gauge motif. From winding and time setting via two bow motifs on the case back to the sophisticated Incabloc anti-shock system, the Oil Pump’s story is evident in every aspect. Water-resistant to 30 meters, the watch’s durability is almost as impressive as its striking appearance.

The new Oil Pump embodies Jacob & Co.’s commitment to horological innovation while also being a statement piece at a premium price. By modernizing the form while retaining the essence of the original, Jacob & Co. continues its effort to merge tradition with the future, leading the automatic replica watches category.
