Attendees of the Watches and Wonders 2023 were mesmerized by the out-of-this-world Jacob & Co. Astronomia Revolution. Within a 47mm gold case, a satellite makes a revolution precisely every 60 seconds. Its three arms carry a ruby that makes a revolution on its own axis every 15 seconds, a Jacob & Co. triple axis tourbillon and the minutes-and-hours sub dial that is always aligned right-side up thanks to a regulator. It is available 18k rose gold, white gold, or DLC-coated white gold, with only six pieces for each material.
Next, as made famous by rapper and avid gambler Drake, the Jacob & Co. Casino has returned in a new design, but of course with its intriguing roulette automaton. Limited to 101 examples, this timepiece sports the classic-style Jacob & Co. dial, the brand’s signature crowns with flaps on the case back for winding and setting, and also a tourbillon only visible through its case back.
Finally, the USD 20 million Jacob & Co. Billionaire Timeless Treasure arrives in 18K yellow gold, is encrusted in a total of 482 Asscher-cut Yellow diamonds (totalling approximately 216.89 carats) which includes a crown set with a 0.57-carat rose-cut yellow diamond. To realize this dazzling beauty, a total of 880 carats of rough yellow diamonds were cut over thousands of hours into 216.89 carats in the Asscher cut. The Asscher-cut Yellow and Fancy Intense Yellow diamonds have been laid in a very precise mosaic pattern, where each diamond has a specific cut and specific function. They are accentuated by 76 rare green tsavorites.
