Jacob & Co. ASTRONOMIA TOURBILLON ART SKULLS
Jacob & Co. New Watch Astronomia Tourbillon Art Static 4 Skulls Has Unique Memento Mori Theme
Jacob & Co. was established in 2014. Astronomia is a series of complex and bold timepieces, under the control of a two-axis tourbillon (or three-axis), presenting the dynamics of the celestial world with different elements in constant motion. After exploring themes from celestial bodies to Everest expeditions to the board game Monopoly, this time the brand continues to delve deeper into the “Memento Mori” theme with the launch of the new Astronomia Tourbillon watch Art Static 4 Skulls.
"Memento Mori" is an idiom that means "remember you will die" in Latin, reminding us not to forget that all must die and that no one can live forever, because so cherish your time and what you have. The concept evolved with the popularity of Christianity, which included heaven, hell, and the redemption of heavenly souls.luxury replica watches
Developing the "Memento Mori" theme, the Jacob & Co. Astronomia Tourbillon Art Static 4 Skulls are presented with 4 skulls in 18k rose gold with cabochon ruby eyes in each quarter of the aventurine baseplate.
These skulls are made with great precision by master craftsmen. Each skull is cast from approximately 45 grams of 18k rose gold, then hand polished using modern and ancient tools, before replacing the skull's eyes with cabochon rubies. Next, these skulls are carefully placed into the aventurine dial so as not to interfere with the movement of the movement.
The four satellite arms of the JCAM25 hand-wound movement feature hour and minute scales on the skeletonized sub-dial, the two-axis tourbillon that regulates the movement, a blue magnesium ball that rotates for 60 seconds and an exclusive 1 carat Jacob-cut diamond with 288 A face, also rotated in 60 seconds.high quality replica watches
The Astronomia's time sub-dial is controlled by a differential system, which remains balanced and legible as it rotates with the four-hand base of the movement located on the front of the Astronomia. The Roman numerals above are hand-engraved and covered with black lacquer, while the hand-finished hour markers are blue.
The beautifully decorated two-axis tourbillon of the Astronomia Four Skulls wraps the balance, hairspring and escape wheel, allowing the Astronomia movement to keep accurate time during its 60-hour power reserve. A full rotation on the first axis takes 60 seconds and the second takes 5 minutes.
The globe is made of hand-painted blue lacquer-coated magnesium with rose gold continents. It is done in a way that ensures weight consistency, as all four satellites must have the exact same weight. The Earth also rotates on its axis at a speed of 60 seconds.best replica watch site 2022
The Jacob-Cut diamond starts as a large rough stone that is twice the size of the finished stone. Before manually creating the sections, they are machine cut into circles. This must be done slowly and carefully. The result of this process is a stunning 288 cut diamond exclusive to Jacob & Co. Placed on an arm that rotates every 60 seconds.
Like other astronomers, the Jacob & Co. Astronomia Tourbillon Art Static 4 Skulls are over 50mm in diameter and 25mm thick between the highest points of the domed curved sapphire crystal. This watch features a case made of 18K gold and sapphire crystal, allowing you to admire the breathtaking movement and the artwork inside.
