Since forming a partnership with Bugatti in 2019, Jacob & Co. has created just a handful of watches inspired by the million-dollar-plus cars. That's because the versions it builds are as complex and cool as the cars themselves. Such is the case with the newest Bugatti Chiron Baguette Orange watch, whose highly complicated 578-part movement is a miniature reproduction of the Chiron W 16-cylinder engine, and even features a working crankshaft and pistons. The manual-wind movement, JCAM37, features a tourbillon cage that is set on an angle to allow for a great view of the constantly moving escapement. A pusher on the right side of the case rotates the crank, which propels the up-and-down movement of the pistons. Via a patented system, the movement is suspended within the case using car-like shocks at each corner so that the movement is not rigid and can move with the wearer's activity. Built for a large wrist (and a large wallet), the 18-karat white gold timepiece is set with 190 diamonds weighing 7.76 carats, and more than 210 black and orange sapphires weighing more than 10 carats. Another nearly two carats of diamonds adorn the buckle of the black rubber strap.

Jacob Arbo, founder of Jacob & Co, emigrated to the USA in search of a better life but instead ended up making life better for multitudes of people through the creation of reliable and riveting timepieces. After his father gifted Jacob his first watch aged 13, Jacob did not just admire its mechanism and prize it but sought to instill the same happiness that he received from this gift onto others. The result are watches that are filled with ambition, passion and love that live up to Swiss standards of high jewelry making.After three years in the making, Jacob & Co launched the Jean Bugatti in 2022. A masterpiece, the dial of the watch recalls the appearance of the 1930s Type 57 SC Atlantic Bugatti roadster grill, while the complexity of the double-retrograde chronograph, digital jumping counters and two one-minute flying tourbillons build on the intricacies that differentiate the brand. It's captivating Astronomia Sola, featuring a three-dimensional solar system, atomic curves and astrological symbols is similarly stunning, while the Astronomia Art amazingly presents a tentacled time piece with an octopus rippling through its center.
