    ----------------------------
    In Partnership with Jacob & Co.
    Jacob & Co's founder and chairman, Jacob Arabo, has a flair for showmanship, decorum and irreverence. From his background in jewellery design, he has formed a vision on watchmaking that is truly unique in an usually quite conservative industry, mixing out-of-this-world aesthetics, complex kinetic displays but also, and mainly, technicalities. Of course, his watches involve jewellery expertise and craftsmanship, but it goes way beyond just appearances. Jacob Arabo's imagination isn't limited by technical or mechanical boundaries and the result is that many of his watches look spectacular. This journey in high-end watchmaking comprises astonishing timepieces such as the Astronomia, the Twin-Turbo or the recent Bugatti watch, with an actual W16 miniature engine... And of course, there's the unique Godfather musical watch. But behind these polarizing designs, there's true mechanical creativity and ingenuity. And this is what we'll discover today, in this in-depth video retracing Jacob & Co's watchmaking expertise.

    I had 0 interest in watches until I saw some by Jacob & Co. I found a world I didn't know existed. Amazing is just an understatement for these pieces. I'm in awe.

    The most beautiful museum on this planet is probably the Jacob Co. headquarters! Respect and greetings from a humble watch lover to these genius people especially to Mr. Arabo himself.

    Plz also mentioned the prices of watches so we can understand the periousness of watches

    • @Monochrome-watches

      We can't always include all prices in an in-depth video where multiple watches are shown but we try to when we can. Prices for the most complex Jacob & Co models range from 32k to 1 million or more, depening on complexity and level of customization. There are less costly, and less complex models like the Epic X and Palatial but these can still cost you tens of thousands.

    Masterpieces of "modern" overpriced tackiness, gaudiness, oversized and exquisite craftsmanship, yet very impressive and historic. .

    I get it they're cool and flashy looking and interesting other than the diamonds and little bit of gold I don't understand why they would be anywhere near a million dollars they're more like toys than anything I would say at the most 10,000 and that's even going way too high

  • @samiam7342
    @samiam7342 Před 2 lety

    top earning professional watchmakers can take home $62,500 to $100,000. This amount cuts across the different luxurious brands in the watchmaking industry, meaning that all watchmakers are only paid a very low percentage of what the products they help build sell for in the market.

    It's a lot of money to just see a watch that looks like an engine, rather buy a Rolex submariner and with all that money left over I'll put it to a house lol
