Intresting...but is it true that the more jewels there is the more vibrations per hour a movement can dilver? or in other words, is there a direct colleration between the two attributes?

No, there's no direct link between the number of jewels and the number of vibrations per hour. For example, all Breitling automatic movements vibrate at 28,800 irrespective of the number of jewels. The jewels are only used to reduce friction.
