Crazy. Not my style but nuts

Not sure I want a moon doll rotating on my wrist. Besides I can't imagine how thick some of his watch cases are.

Extremely

AzPaul · 24 March 2019, 09:51 AM

Couple of those look like something you'd see on Evine.

Fat_ninja · 24 March 2019, 09:59 AM

I dont really understand these watches

I understand them, but for the money, would rather have a Patek minute repeater.

FTX I · 24 March 2019, 10:23 AM

Wow I loved them. The one with a roulette is out of this world. Thanks for sharing Eliot.

They are not bad at other stuff too, if you know what I mean.

Lmao. Love that guy.

Phrank · 24 March 2019, 11:08 AM

Guess that will be Michael Blakey's next buy, believe he's a big fan of Jacob & Co.

SG56 · 24 March 2019, 12:54 PM

Wow, very interesting.

Not a watch I would wear, but I love the creativity.

I've certainly seen some really ugly watches for that kind of money. These are quite interesting.

Actually I think a couple of them are pretty cool but as said and agree I would rather have a Patek Repeater.

If you already have the 90 metre yacht, any of these would be a fun item to wear whilst wandering around the deck.

If I shat gold bars I’d buy the roulette watch just to entertain myself on the crapper on my PJ

Burlington · 24 March 2019, 07:09 PM

They are incredible works of engineering and art - obviously not a daily wearer but if you have the money and want a statement piece on your wrist these are super

Along these lines,...My daughter and i were talking and asked my wife how come she didnt put a TV in the bathroom? So that I can watch TV and entertain myself on the crapper... her response. Use ur iphone

Lol

Not a watch I would wear but a watch I would enjoy for what it is. Working art.

enjoythemusic · 25 March 2019, 10:06 AM

I love what they're doing and look at it more as a work of art on your wrist. Here's something that goes to the next level in a direction for those who truly care about the creative mechanical arts in my opinion. I've considered custom Patek repeaters, even considered the music wheel watch by UN, and frankly those pale by comparison to these creations.

RobearH · 25 March 2019, 10:16 AM

Beautiful wearable art that also tells time...very interesting styles. The Bugatti’s CC are also fantastic.

I would undoubtedly bump that oil derrick watch on the first door jam I passed by.

Wesley Crusher · 25 March 2019, 10:16 AM

Jacob & Co has come a long way in a short amount of time. Remember their stupid 5 time zone watches from the early 2000s?

Now they’re making double tourbillons and partnering with Bugatti.

lexipalmer10 · 25 March 2019, 10:19 AM

The watches in that video are crazy!

That 5 time zone is quartz too.

I used to have one. Back in the day. With the bezel change from diamond to a regular bezel.IMG_1007.jpg

My great aunt had an ashtray from Vegas that had a roulette wheel like that in it.

The one with a roulette is absolutely breath taking.
