replica Jacob and Co watches ASTRONOMIA Mexico, Patriotic Pride
Jacob & Co. has produced a unique astronomical work that includes Mexican heritage. The perfect combination of art and watchmaking.
A cultural heritage like Mexico deserves a watch to match. We can't think of anything better than the Jacob & Co. Astronomia, one of the most fascinating haute horlogerie creations of the 21st century. The piece is part of the Wonders of the World collection, a way of presenting, through a special stage, personalized pieces designed for the brand's strategic markets. The proposal has great commercial interest, although its great value lies in its technological level, which is indisputable for Astronomia.
Widely known among enthusiasts, Astronomia is based on a mechanism created especially for Jacob & Co. by the studio of Luca Soprana. It is a clock of enormous size (its diameter reaches 50 mm) due to the space required to embed its mechanism. In the case of Astronomia, this need for space is not so much a problem as an advantage. Its urn-shaped case allows the inclusion of decorative elements that are perfectly integrated with the mechanism, transforming the clock into a small cabinet of curiosities where we can admire its evolution in our free time.wholesale fashion watches
star mechanism
The Jacob & Co. Astronomia is an uncompromising watch: every element of it meets the highest technical or decorative standards. In short, the luxury of capital letters. The entire system is based on the JCAM25 mechanism and consists of 384 components, which are constructed in a cross-shaped structure. On one of the arms we find the hour subdials with a biaxial tourbillon cage at the end. The flywheel makes one revolution every 60 seconds and the entire cage rotates around the longitudinal axis at a 5-minute rhythm. On the other arm we found a 1 carat diamond with a unique Jacob cut with 288 facets and a globe made of magnesium and painted blue. Each element rotates at a frequency of one revolution every 60 seconds.
Viewers can see these elements in motion at any time. To do this, it has a slightly curved upper sapphire crystal and four windows on the sides. The box structure is in rose gold and has a height of 25 mm. There are two folding keys in the base, one is used to adjust the time, and the other provides the necessary energy for the march, which is expected to take 60 hours. The watch is even water resistant up to 30 meters. It's a noteworthy detail that tells us it's solidly constructed, though it's hard to imagine anyone dared bathe in it. replica watches online

After reviewing the most relevant technical data of the Astronomia, we proceed to detail the special elements of this release for our market. On the bright green mineral glass surface we find four miniature replicas of many other symbols of Mexican cultural heritage. They are Independence Angel Palace, Palace of Fine Arts, Chapultepec Castle and Chichen Itza. All these elements are handcrafted, carved and painted. The detail on all these tiny components is so fine that it makes us wonder if we're looking at a watch or a work of art. The skepticism Jacob & Co. created was intentional.
The Astronomical Wonders of the World in Mexico is the most spectacular work Jacob & Co. has produced for Mexico to date, although it is not the first. The good relationship that the American company maintains with our country has produced different special editions in recent years. We've had the opportunity to admire the Epic X México, Epic X México Chrono, and Epic X Viva la Vida before; all of which have elements of ethnic or Mexican identity. Of course, all of these seem "pale" in front of this Astronomia tourbillon. Due to its complexity, Jacob & Co. limits its production to a single piece, which will guarantee its happy buyer an object unique in the universe. A true pride of Mexico.
