The World is Yours | Dec 29, 2006 |
On the crest of the fashion: And again Jacob… How many times I have heard about this renowned jewelry watch brand - I can hardly remember. Everything related to chic products deals one way or another with this young American watch company. And as it usually happens, there are not just timepieces produced by Jacob Company, yet fashionable accessories and clothing. Each fashionable designer thinks in many directions at the same time. However, each designer has got his preferences as well. So, Jacob's preferences are obviously clear to me. He deals mainly with watches.
At the first glance: Some of you might think it is a kitch style timepiece at the first glance. Well, there are as many opinions as people. Let me tell you what, perhaps you remember the way that all the newly appeared was treated including music, fine art and literature. All the works of Picasso were considered to be a daub in the beginning. The same happened to many creative persons. The reason is very simple. People often judge things they have never seen in their life. And this is the way the rumor is spread. It reminds me of the chain effect.
Original opinion: My own point of view is that Jacob watches are very original. The point is not just in the number of precious stones on the bezel or on the dial of Jacob watch. The very essence of Jacob timepieces is in their unique unrepeatable design. It seems to be a fusion of east and west in Jacob watches. What's more, I can clearly see some cubistic reminiscences to the early Picasso paintings and very characteristic for eastern and even Middle East world ornaments and color ranges.
5 watches in one if you don't mind: One of the most famous Jacob Arabo's collections (Jacob Arabo is a full name of the Jacob Company's founder) is 5 time zones collection. The designs of 5 time zone watches are various. However, there is a common feature about them: they all have got four additional subdials on the main dial. These subdials display time in New York, Paris, Tokyo and Los Angeles while the main dial displays time of the place where you currently are.
List of celebrities: Jacob Arabo’s legendary triumph as a revolutionist of men’s jewelry watch market and his version of the women’s fine jewelry classics creates his own signature style in the fine timepiece art. I have noticed that among the wearers of Jacob watches there are such personalities as Sir Elton John, David Beckham, Bono, Angela Bassett, Naomi Campbell, Sean Combs, Justin Timberlake and Derek Jeter.
World map timepiece: One of Jacob’s most innovative watch models was the development of the Five Time Zone collection 'The World is Your' watch. This exceptional daring design features the diamond dial as a world map. It was achieved by using diamonds of different colors forming continents and oceans. The potential of design within this style is infinite. So Jacob continues to invent something new each year with the use of eye-catching colors and various materials forming the world map.
Going into details: Speaking about the World is Yours watch I would like to add that it features stainless steel case and world map design in multicolored pave diamonds. The bezel of Jacob watch is embellished with 5 karat diamonds. There is a sapphire glass used in The World is Yours watch. This Jacob timepiece is powered by a reliable ETA movement. Its strap is made of no less than alligator leather. I think it is a perfect supplement to the portrait of this Jacob timepiece. What's more, this watch brilliance is water resistant.
I'm totally sure that Jacob Company occupied a worthy place in the world of luxurious watchmaking. And that the circle of its admirers is going just to expand.
I love it!
