Jacob & Co. and their 12 iconic replica watches on sale

Jacob & Co. is known for some of the most stunning high-complication watches that present a visual spectacle that no other brand can match and are worn by celebrities who are known for their eye-catching watches. Here is a brief introduction to their brand and 12 quintessential watches that showcase the brand's huge appeal

Jacob & Co.'s watches are true statement pieces that highlight the brand in more ways than one. Founder Jacob Arabo comes from a family that emigrated to the United States from the former Soviet Union in search of a better life. In the early 80s, Arabo began designing for various jewelry brands in the United States and established himself in the field. Eventually, he took his talent and expertise and put it into his own brand, naming it Jacob & Co. His bold sense of design soon became well-known in various circles, and the use of large gemstones in men's watches became his signature. It wasn't long before celebrities from all walks of life began to take notice of his work and began to adopt the style. It's no surprise, then, that Jacob & Co's pieces are the choice of many celebrities. Musicians Jay-Z, Drake, 50 Cent, Madonna, Rihanna, Pharrell Williams, Elton John, Jennifer Lopez, Mariah Carey, and athletes David (and Victoria) Beckham, Michael Jordan, Cristiano Ronaldo, and Lionel Messi are just a few of the brand's famous patrons over the years. replica bugatti watches

From jewelry to watches, Arabo's creative journey was a natural progression. In 2002, he created his first watch. It was a five-time zone watch that was an immediate success with its bold colors and design. Just five years later, Arabo ventured into the international “watch capital” of Geneva, Switzerland, to found Jacob & Co SA. Soon after, he launched his first high-complication watch, the Quenttin, and set off a long list of firsts. Every few years, the brand releases one stunning piece after another. The famous Astronomia collection was a huge success in the 2010s. From 2019 onwards, the brand has also partnered with various high-profile companies. These included Bugatti (Bugatti Twin Turbo), Paramount Pictures (The Godfather Special Edition), NBC/Universal Pictures (Scarface themed watches and later Fast & Furious watches); and then a Batman themed watch in partnership with Warner Bros. and DC.

The brand's creativity and bold personality is evident with every new launch. Even with simpler, more approachable ‘everyday' watches, they still manage to stand out. Here are a few of their watches that embody this and reflect their unique personality.

Astronomia Art India—Canvas by Jacob & Co.
The most striking of their Astronomia replica watches swiss is the Astronomia Tourbillon, which was first introduced in 2014. It reimagines the classic tourbillon complication in a vertical configuration, with four satellites constantly turning. This striking masterpiece soon became a canvas for various other works of art, and the Astronomia Art series watches became almost a window display, crafted from sapphire crystal and precious metals. The Indian edition of Astronomia Art features four hand-carved miniatures of Indian landmarks. These hand-painted monuments are placed on a dial made of aventurine glass, which also serves as the basis for the bi-axial tourbillon mechanism. They are the Taj Mahal, the Lotus Temple, the Gate of India and the Qutub Minar. Each miniature is the product of countless hours of hand-crafting. Adding to this, the watch is set with a 288-faceted "Jacob-cut" diamond, one of the four satellites of the mechanism, which rotates once every 60 seconds. Opposite the diamond is a blue-lacquered globe, made of magnesium, which also rotates once per minute. Completing the four-way balance of satellites is the main chronograph dial, with skeletonized Roman numerals - hand-carved and black-lacquered, paired with blue hands, also finished by hand. The entire stunning mobile work of art is powered by a hand-wound movement that offers a 60-hour power reserve. It is housed in a generous 50mm "display case" made of 18K rose gold and sapphire crystal.

Epic X—A base for avant-garde and sporty
The Epic X is a minimalist creation from Jacob, and while it may be stripped down to the bare bones of its architectural construction, it can't exactly be called minimalist. Despite its avant-garde appearance, the Epic X does celebrate traditional watchmaking forms. Skeletonising a watch is more than just removing excess material from a more traditional form; it also has a lot to do with ensuring the structural integrity of the watch, despite simplifying the structure and increasing transparency. While the watch must still be robust, the movement must not only remain functional, but also accurate and reliable. The manual-winding calibre JCAM01 is positioned vertically, then skeletonised and finely finished to achieve all of this. This watch has no running seconds hand, so transparency is particularly useful as it can show if the parts that need to move are still moving, or if the watch needs to be wound. But with a 48-hour power reserve, you can rest assured that an alternate-day winding schedule will suffice. The watch features a 44mm case in grade 5 titanium treated with black DLC, which presents an impressive “X” shape visible through the sapphire crystal and caseback.

Epic X Chrono—Jacob & Co.'s Sportiest Watch
Jacob's Epic X template, with claw-shaped lugs and two prominent visible bridges on either side of the movement, has been translated into this chronograph version. Retaining its skeletonized look, this 47mm sport high quality cheap watches allows a view of the column-wheel chronograph movement inside thanks to the dial's colored mineral crystal.

This self-winding movement, the JCAA05, which offers a 48-hour power reserve, powers the watch, which includes the chronograph and small seconds subdial in a binocular layout. Another feature of this watch is the inner rotating bezel, which has a 60-minute counter that can be controlled via the push-on crown at 10 o'clock. The overall look is enhanced by anti-reflective sapphire crystal, which is surrounded by a ceramic bezel.

Other elements of this watch include rubber pushers and a screw-down crown that help keep the watch water-resistant to 200 meters. This is Jacob & Co's sportiest watch, available in a variety of materials and colors.

Palatial Classic – Jacob & Co.'s Classics
From sporty to classic, Jacob's dress watch collection is more refined than its larger models and sporty Epic X watches. These classic watches reflect Art Deco design codes and have very detailed finishes, giving them an understated yet sophisticated appeal.

Palatial Classic Automatic
This Palatial Classic Automatic watch is equipped with the JCCA01 automatic movement, which offers a 36-hour power reserve. It features a “Glucydur” balance wheel (which has a much lower thermal expansion rate) and an anti-shock system. The watch features an 18K rose gold case with a diameter of 42 mm, is water-resistant to 50 meters, and has an anti-reflective treated sapphire crystal. Displays include guilloché dials in various colors (brown here), applique badges and hour markers, and polished dauphine hands for two-hand chronographs. Each watch is individually numbered and secured to an alligator leather strap with a solid rose gold buckle.

Palatial Classic Manual Large Date
This Palatial watch is a manual-winding movement, but it is indeed very rich in features. The JCCM01 movement provides a 50-hour power reserve, which is displayed at the six o'clock position on the dial. And the large date display at 12 o'clock, which is completely opposite to the power reserve, is very eye-catching. All of this is distributed on a dial with a guilloché pattern, which varies in color, and this watch uses gray, gold and blue. This watch has a 42mm steel case with sapphire crystal glass, and can be equipped with an alligator leather strap or steel bracelet depending on the style.

The magnificent five time zones - the simple incarnation of the first Jacob & Co. cheap luxury watches
GMT and world time watches are among the most practical and sought-after watches, and this five time zone watch is definitely in high demand. Although we may or may not travel across time zones, the amount of communication with people in different time zones has increased significantly in the past few years, so a watch that can tell us the time in different time zones at the same time is undoubtedly a very practical tool. This watch is the latest version of Jacob Arabo's first watch. It has a two-hand central chronograph function, and four subdials showing the time in New York, Los Angeles, Tokyo, and Paris. But you can actually set any time zone of your choice on them. The main dial is in black nickel with guilloché, sword-shaped hands, and finely cut hour markers; the subdials are snailed and ruthenium. Each of the five sets of chronograph hands uses its own Swiss quartz movement, an ETA 280.002. To accommodate the multiple movements inside, the steel case is generously sized at 45 mm and is topped with a round sapphire crystal with an anti-reflective treatment on the inside. The closed satin caseback is printed with a world map. It is engraved and lacquered. The case is water-resistant to 50 meters and comes with a black alligator leather strap.

Dazzling – in dazzling colours
This glittering stunner is aptly named, a modern and beautiful watch that exudes glamour and showcases Jacob & Co's high jewellery prowess – both in gemstone sourcing and gem setting. The stainless steel case measures 38mm and features a row of 52 round-cut diamonds on the bezel, totalling approximately 1.3 carats. Even the crown has a whopping 32 round diamonds, totalling approximately 0.39 carats. Meanwhile, the white mother-of-pearl dial is set with 11 coloured sapphires as hour markers (approximately 0.44 carats) and 50 diamonds (0.66 carats) in the centre of the dial. The stainless steel case houses a Swiss quartz ETA 955.432 movement, with sapphire crystal glass and a satin caseback. It is paired with an elegant satin strap.

Brilliant Mystery Pave Diamonds – Brilliant and Mysterious
The Brilliant Mystery Pave Diamonds is a triumph of novel presentation that maintains the illusion of mystery and intrigue, even though the trick itself is easy to understand and explain. The black triangular hour and minute hands are suspended from the sapphire crystal, appearing to float in mid-air. The parts where these hands are connected to the mechanism are cleverly concealed, while the mechanism itself is hidden behind the diamond-paved central section of the dial. The Swiss quartz ETA movement E01.701, crafted in 18K rose gold, is not connected to the conventional time-setting crown in order to maintain a gap between the central section of the watch that houses the movement and the outer frame of the case. Instead of a crown, there is a time corrector on the back of the case. The 38mm case itself is set with 298 round white diamonds (approx. 6.5 ct), and the bezel is also paved with diamonds (0.55 ct). The satin strap is paired with an 18K rose gold buckle, also set with diamonds, approx. 0.48 ct. The total number of diamonds on this replica watches for sale is a whopping 476, totaling 8.43 carats.
