Tourneau Classic Jump Hour in Solid 18kt Rose Gold with “Cornes de Vache” Style Lugs, Hand-Guilloché Silver Dial with Aventurine “Starfield” Seconds Sub-Dial, Jump Hour Aperture at 12 O’Clock, Raised Rose Gold Chapter Ring with Blue Enamel Minute Markers, Sapphire Crystal Front and Exhibition Case Back, Automatic Self-Winding Caliber 2895-2 Elaboré Movement, Brown Alligator Leather Strap. The 40mm solid 18kt rose gold round case is sculpted with beautifully flared “Cornes de Vache”–style lugs that curve outward and taper elegantly toward the strap, recalling the celebrated mid-century Geneva case designs revered by collectors. The case features polished surfaces with subtle curvature and balanced proportions that allow the warm tone of the rose gold to play beautifully with light. The dial is a true work of art, executed in hand-engraved solid silver guilloché displaying a rare écailles de poisson or “fish-scale” motif that ripples across the surface with remarkable depth and texture. Surrounding the dial is a raised rose gold chapter ring engraved with delicate blue enamel minute markers that provide both visual contrast and refined legibility. At 12 o’clock, the jump hour aperture presents the hour digitally, offering a clean and instantaneous display, while the minutes are indicated by the central hand across the chapter ring. At 6 o’clock, a mesmerizing aventurine glass sub-dial displays the running seconds, its midnight-blue surface flecked with metallic inclusions that shimmer like a star-filled night sky. The interplay between the textured guilloché, polished rose gold accents, and cosmic aventurine creates a striking harmony of materials rarely encountered in modern watchmaking. This Tourneau Classic Jump Hour is powered by the mechanical automatic self-winding caliber 2895-2 Elaboré movement. Operating at a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour and constructed with 27 jewels, the movement provides reliable and precise timekeeping while driving the instantaneous jump hour complication. The mechanism utilizes a system of cams and springs that accumulate energy throughout the hour and release it precisely at the top of the hour, allowing the hour disc to advance instantly to the next numeral in the aperture. Visible through the sapphire crystal exhibition case back, the movement displays refined finishing including perlage decoration and a decorated rotor, reflecting the traditional craftsmanship behind the mechanism. The jump hour complication represents one of the most fascinating and technically intriguing displays in horology. First appearing in early 20th-century pocket watches, the mechanism replaces the conventional hour hand with a digital display that advances instantaneously each hour. Achieving this seemingly simple display requires precise mechanical engineering and careful regulation to ensure the hour disc jumps crisply and accurately every sixty minutes. Combined with the sculptural rose gold case, the richly layered guilloché dial, and the celestial aventurine seconds display, this Tourneau Classic Jump Hour embodies a rare fusion of classical watchmaking artistry and mechanical ingenuity rarely seen in contemporary timepieces. Beyond its striking aesthetics, the Tourneau Classic Jump Hour represents a rare intersection of mechanical ingenuity and artisanal dial craftsmanship seldom encountered in modern watchmaking. The jump hour complication itself is one of horology’s most technically fascinating mechanisms, requiring a precisely engineered system of cams, springs, and discs that store energy over the course of the hour and release it instantaneously to advance the digital hour display in a single crisp motion. When combined with the elaborately hand-guilloché silver dial, aventurine “starfield” seconds display, and sculptural 18kt rose gold case with Cornes de Vache lugs, the result is a watch that feels far more like a piece of independent haute horlogerie than a conventional production timepiece. Pieces like this are produced in extremely limited numbers and are rarely encountered on the market, making them particularly appealing to collectors who appreciate uncommon complications and exceptional dial work. For the discerning enthusiast, this Tourneau Jump Hour stands as a quietly extraordinary and highly collectible watch that celebrates the poetry, complexity, and enduring fascination of mechanical timekeeping.
