One special feature of this flyback system is that it does not 
halt the operation of the regulating organ. The small seconds 
hand is reset to zero and begins running again instantly. This 
means  the  watch  maintains  optimal  precision  even  when  
accurately adjusting the time to the nearest second.

A multi-axis tourbillon  

Above and beyond its exemplary reliability, the chief characte-
ristic of this Sphérotourbillon watch is its tourbillon.
The openworked dial provides a fascinating view of the tour-
billon  performing  an  extremely  unusual  rotation  movement. 
As well as revolving around the axis of its titanium carriage, 
the tourbillon also spins around a second axis, inclined at a 20° 
angle. The combination of these two distinct and fast rotations 
(respectively 30 and 15 seconds per revolution) serves to free 
the watch from the effects of gravity.
This spectacular tourbillon incorporates all the innovations 
that  enabled  Jaeger-LeCoultre  to  win  a  brilliant  victory  in 
the first official timing competition of the 21st century. The 
carriage  machined  from  a  single  block  of  titanium  featu-
res  a  combination  of  lightness  and  extreme  precision. The  
cylindrical balance-spring with its two terminal curves beats 
with a concentricity impossible to achieve with a traditional 
balance-spring. The balance with its generous inertia oscilla-
tes at a cadence of 21,600 vibrations per hour. The balance-
spring  stud-holder  is  protected  by  a  screw-locking  system 
from the effects of shocks and vibrations to which the watch 
is subjected.

An exceptional design

This technological complexity nonetheless remains extremely 
beautiful. The innovative spirit of the watch merges with an 
inspired design inspired by vintage pocket-watches and desi-
gned to endow it with a blend of elegance and refinement.
The  level  of  finishing  of  the  ébauches  made  in  non-treated 
nickel silver accentuates the sense of exclusivity exuded by the 
Duomètre  à  Sphérotourbillon.  Jaeger-LeCoultre’s  signature 

.

“côtes soleillées”, clean-cut exterior and internal angles, har-
monious shapes: the appearance of Jaeger-LeCoultre Calibre 
382 is the very epitome of the watchmaking art.
Demonstrating  profound  respect  for  ideal  proportions  and 
watchmaking  design  codes,  expressed  through  the  sophisti-
cated pink gold case, the restrained, highly readable dial, the 
polished bezel and lugs, and the satin-brushed case middle, the 
signature aesthetic characteristics of the Duomètre are meti-
culously preserved in this model and create a striking contrast 
with the level of complexity of the movement housed within.
