Good evening everyone!
This may seem sudden, but do you know the luxury watch brand called Jacob & Co. ( hereafter referred to as Jacob) ?
Although Jacob & Co. is less well known than famous brands such as Rolex and Omega, it is a luxury watch brand that is now loved by celebrities around the world.
Its luxurious construction using jewels and original designs are gaining popularity in Japan, and in 2022 , it opened its first boutique in Japan in Ginza. It can be said that this is one of the most popular luxury watch brands right now. So, this time, we would like to take a deeper look at the promising new brand [Jacob & Co.][Jacob][Jacob]'s popular model
From here, I would like to introduce some of Jacob's popular models.
"Astronomia Collection"
This series, which was introduced in 2014, is the face of Jacob & Co. It has been released in many variations to date, all of which are stunning in design.
The base model, "Astronomia Sky," is equipped with four arms extending from a central axis that rotates once every 20 minutes, and is equipped with hour and minute hands, a three-axis tourbillon, a magnesium Earth, and a diamond moon, and is said to be an innovative watch that overturns the realm of what was previously thought to be the impossible with mechanical watches.
"The Mystery Tourbillon"
A mystery clock is a clock that gives the impression that its hands are floating in the air . This is a watchmaking technique with over 100 years of history, and is said to be a gift of beauty. And as a high jewelry manufacturer, Jacob & Co. has revived it with a gorgeous and modern arrangement, creating The Mystery Tourbillon.
This model is equipped with two triple-axis tourbillons, which are Jacob & Co.'s icons, back-to-back, and a super-complex mechanism that works in unison to create a different dimension of movement. The hexagonal bucket diamonds are laid out and sparkle, making it a true high jewelry watch.
The Godfather Opera
As the name suggests, this is a collaboration model with director Francis Ford Coppola's "The Godfather." What's more, it is equipped with the incredibly complex movement "Cal. JCFM04" (658 parts) that plays the theme song from "The Godfather" as its melody.
Two rotating cylinders with a total of 36 teeth rotate to reproduce the 120-note theme song of "The Godfather" in a mechanical music box. At the center of this complex mechanism is a hand-carved and hand-painted miniature figurine of "The Godfather," a design that incorporates a sense of playfulness.
summary
We have explained about Jacob, an emerging brand that is currently attracting a lot of attention. What do you think?
As I write this column, I am drawn to the charm of [Jacob & Co.] and as a watch fan, I am excited about it. Because it has a shorter history than famous, long-established brands, its innovative designs, unlike any other watch, are attracting attention from famous people and celebrities around the world. In the future, it may not be long before it stands shoulder to shoulder with famous brands in Japan.
Once again, I hope that by reading this article, the appeal of luxury watches will be conveyed to as many people as possible.
see you!
