Billionaire III is first and foremost a piece of high jewelry watchmaking. Its movement has been developed to serve the needs of extensive gem-setting. It therefore stands out by its structure. Rarely has a skeleton movement been supported by bridges so thin. They're laid out in a geometric fashion, mimicking the facets of a diamond. What's more, the bridges of caliber JCAM39 are made of white gold, allowing them to receive the 57 baguette-cut white diamonds that unite it with the case. Using any material traditional to watchmaking would have been impossible: they're too hard for the setting process, which would have bent the bridges out of shape. Despite its extremely thin bones, caliber JCAM39 is fitted with a high-end tourbillon, vertically aligned with a large barrel. The energy it stores allows this hand-wound movement to beat for 72 hours, a record for a timepiece of this magnitude.
