Jacob & Co. Astronomical Solar

This wholesale watch is tacky and cool. Of course you can also see the hours, but that’s secondary to me. I care about what’s going on around me. You have planets revolving around the surface, you have the universe in the background, and each planet has a different gem – which I love. The watch has a three-dimensional quality; it’s more of a fun mix of bracelet and watch. I also like the movement inside, you can see all the little pieces moving slowly. It’s like a Galileo thing to me. That’s what I saw when I saw this piece – an early intention to measure time.

Jacob & Co Astronomia Black Solar Zodiac Adds New Color to the Classic

The spinning solar system background builds on the already complex original.

Jacob & Co’s Astronomia Solar Zodiac has received its biggest design overhaul since the daring horological creation first launched in 2014.

Beneath a massive sapphire crystal dome, Astronomia Solar Zodiac Black features the design’s signature rotating three-armed turntable that serves as the base for a 60-second flying tourbillon, a 60-second rotating globe in rose gold and blue lacquer, and three other Hands – painted planets and self-orienting dial for hours and minutes. The entire assembly completes a clockwise rotation every 10 minutes.

But unlike previous versions (Conor McGregor recently showed off a brand new $1 million diamond-studded planetarium), here the backdrop is made of black aventurine glass and set with planets of the semi-precious solar system, which can also rotate, complete A 360 degree rotation in opposite directions at the same speed. fake men watches

At the center of the arrangement is a 2k Jacob cut yellow citrine whose 288 facets form an almost perfect sphere representing the sun.

The planets are composed of cabochon-cut semi-precious hemispheres: Mercury’s white granite, Venue’s ruby, Mars’ red jasper, Jupiter’s Peterstone, Saturn’s tiger’s eye and 18k rose gold ring, Uranus’ blue calcite and azure Lazuli, the gold stone, represents Neptune.

The impressive mechanism is housed in a 44mm black DLC-coated titanium case with a sapphire crystal aperture. Jacob & Co fake
