TW Factory Jacob & Co. Casino Tourbillon 44mm
The TW Factory Jacob & Co. Casino Tourbillon is a 44mm mechanical watch built around one of the model’s most distinctive features: a functional miniature roulette-style mechanism integrated directly into the watch.
Rather than using the casino theme purely as decoration, the dial incorporates a rotating roulette wheel with 37 individual pockets, divided into green, red, and black sections, together with a white ceramic ball.
The roulette mechanism is activated through a dedicated pusher, allowing the wheel and ball to operate independently as a mechanical display.
The watch measures 44mm in diameter and 16.3mm in thickness.
Functional Roulette Mechanism
The defining feature of the Casino Tourbillon is its mechanically operated roulette-style display.
The roulette wheel incorporates a total of 37 pockets:
* 1 green
* 18 red
* 18 black
A small white ceramic ball moves around the roulette track as the mechanism operates.
This construction transforms the casino theme from a printed dial motif into a moving mechanical feature.
Pusher-Activated Roulette
The roulette mechanism is activated using a dedicated pusher.
Once triggered, the roulette wheel begins rotating at speed while the ceramic ball travels around the surrounding track.
As the wheel slows, the ball eventually settles into one of the individual pockets.
The resulting position is determined mechanically by the interaction between the rotating wheel, ceramic ball, friction, and deceleration of the mechanism.
37-Pocket Layout
The roulette layout consists of 37 individual positions.
Its arrangement includes one green position together with 18 red and 18 black positions.
This creates the recognizable visual structure of a roulette wheel while allowing the individual pockets to function as physical stopping positions for the ceramic ball.
White Ceramic Ball
A white ceramic ball is used within the roulette mechanism.
Its contrasting color makes the ball clearly visible against the red, black, and green sections of the wheel.
The ball is a functional component of the roulette mechanism rather than a fixed decorative element.
Low-Friction Bearing Structure
The rotating roulette assembly uses a ball-bearing structure designed to reduce friction during operation.
Reducing rotational resistance allows the roulette wheel to spin more freely after the mechanism is activated.
This bearing-supported construction is particularly important because the roulette function depends on free movement and gradual deceleration rather than a fixed-position display.
Casino-Inspired Mechanical Architecture
Unlike a conventional watch complication such as a date, GMT hand, or power-reserve indicator, the roulette mechanism is designed primarily as an interactive mechanical feature.
The wearer can activate the mechanism through the pusher and observe the wheel and ceramic ball move across the dial.
This interaction is the central characteristic that distinguishes the Casino Tourbillon from more conventional mechanical watch designs.
44mm Case
The TW Factory version measures:
Diameter: 44mm
Thickness: 16.3mm
The substantial 44mm diameter provides sufficient space for the roulette mechanism and its 37 individual pockets.
The 16.3mm thickness also reflects the amount of vertical space required to accommodate the watch movement together with the additional mechanical roulette assembly.
Mechanical Movement
The supplied TW Factory specification identifies the watch as using an imported mechanical movement.
No specific movement calibre has been provided in the available information, so the movement should not be identified as a particular Swiss calibre without additional confirmation.
The mechanical architecture provides conventional timekeeping alongside the watch’s interactive roulette mechanism.

Mechanical Roulette Operation
The roulette function is separate from ordinary time reading.
When activated, the mechanism sets the roulette wheel into rotation while the white ceramic ball moves around the surrounding track.
The bearing-supported construction minimizes unnecessary rotational resistance and allows the mechanism to gradually lose momentum.
As the system slows, the ceramic ball settles into one of the 37 available pockets.
The visual result changes with each activation because the final resting position depends on the mechanical interaction of the moving components.
Roulette Function vs. Conventional Watch Complications
The roulette mechanism differs fundamentally from conventional complications.
A date display or second-time-zone mechanism exists primarily to provide additional information. The Casino Tourbillon’s roulette system instead provides an interactive mechanical function.
Its appeal comes from observing the movement of the wheel and ceramic ball rather than obtaining additional time or calendar information.
This distinction is important when describing the architecture of the watch.
Case Proportions
At 44 × 16.3mm, the Casino Tourbillon has substantial dimensions.
The larger diameter accommodates the circular roulette layout, while the thickness provides the internal space required for the movement and additional mechanical components.
These dimensions should be considered when evaluating wrist fit, particularly for wearers accustomed to thinner dress watches.
Wearing and Care
Because the watch incorporates a moving roulette mechanism in addition to its mechanical timekeeping components, the pusher should be operated deliberately rather than repeatedly activated in rapid succession.
Avoid pressing the roulette control if unusual resistance is encountered.
Strong impacts should also be avoided because the watch contains multiple moving components associated with the roulette assembly.
As with other mechanical watches, exposure to powerful magnetic fields should be minimized.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the size of the TW Factory Casino Tourbillon?
The watch measures 44mm in diameter and 16.3mm in thickness.
Is the roulette wheel functional?
Yes. The supplied TW Factory configuration incorporates a mechanically operated roulette-style function rather than a purely decorative roulette dial.
How is the roulette function activated?
The mechanism is activated using a dedicated pusher.
How many positions are on the roulette wheel?
The wheel contains 37 individual pockets.
How are the 37 positions divided?
The supplied configuration uses 1 green, 18 red, and 18 black positions.
Does the roulette mechanism use a real moving ball?
Yes. A small white ceramic ball moves around the roulette track when the mechanism is activated.
What allows the roulette wheel to rotate freely?
The rotating assembly uses a ball-bearing structure designed to reduce friction during operation.
Does the ball always stop in the same position?
The mechanism is designed so that the final position results from the interaction between the rotating wheel, moving ceramic ball, friction, and gradual deceleration rather than a fixed stopping position.
What movement does the TW version use?
The supplied information identifies it as a mechanical movement, but no specific calibre has been confirmed, so a more precise movement designation is not included here.
