Bejewelled with a bold watch Astronomia!
Started as a jeweller, Jacob & Co has been renowned for astonishing designs of luxurious and bold watches. Among the brand’s creations, the Astronomia collection wittily recreates the solar system, by combining high-end Swiss watchmaking with brand founder Jacob Arabo’s talent for sourcing finest gemstones.
The collection effortlessly gained the attention of watch connoisseurs and celebrities. It is equipped with the exclusive gravitational double axis tourbillon JCAM19 manual-winding movement, the 44.5 mm Astronomia Solar Planets is an unforgettable grand complication masterpiece with extravagant jewels.
With the patented differential gears system, the entire movement rotates every 10 minutes. The Roman numeral hours and minutes dial, the flying tourbillon cage that rotates in 60 seconds, as well as the rose gold and blue lacquered globe that rotates in 60 seconds on two axis, all rotate around a 1.5carat citrine featuring 288 facets on top of the movement, radiating as the sun.
The dial is adorned with seven planets made of cabochon-cut half-sphere precious stones: white granite as Mercury, rhodonite as Venus, red jasper as Mars, pietersite as Jupiter, tiger eye adorned with 18K rose gold ring as Saturn, blue calcite as Uranus and lastly, Neptune in lapis lazuli. With the top-grade gemstones and impeccable craftsmanship, the brand has once again realised an iconic and intricately crafted masterpiece.
