Could the Astronomia Art Octopus Rose Gold Be the Most Artistic Astronomia Ever Created

The Jacob & Co Astronomia Art Octopus Rose Gold is more than a luxury timepiece. It is a wearable sculpture that combines exceptional hand craftsmanship with revolutionary Swiss engineering. Its lifelike three-dimensional octopus, transparent sapphire architecture, and mesmerizing Astronomia movement make it one of the most distinctive creations in the Jacob & Co. collection. For collectors in Dubai seeking true exclusivity, this Pièce Unique represents an unparalleled opportunity.

Design and Craftsmanship

The impressive 50 mm case combines luxurious 18K rose gold with sapphire crystal elements, allowing uninterrupted views of the spectacular three-dimensional display beneath the signature domed sapphire crystal with multiple anti-reflective treatments. At the center of the watch sits a beautifully hand-engraved, hand-painted, and lacquered titanium octopus that appears to float within the movement, creating remarkable depth and realism. The titanium hour and minute dial is paired with Jacob & Co.'s signature blued hands, while the sapphire caseback with rose gold metallisation and innovative lift-out rotating bows provide both functionality and exceptional finishing.

Movement and Performance

At the heart of this exceptional creation is the exclusive hand-wound Jacob & Co. Caliber JCAM25, composed of 384 components and meticulously hand-finished to the highest standards of Swiss haute horlogerie. Operating at 21,600 vibrations per hour with a 60-hour power reserve, the movement features Jacob & Co.'s signature static vertical architecture with four rotating arms. The double-axis tourbillon rotates on its first axis every 60 seconds and its second axis every 2.5 minutes, while the exclusive 1-carat, 288-facet Jacob Cut® diamond and the blue lacquered magnesium globe each complete a full rotation every 30 seconds, creating an ever-changing mechanical performance around the sculpted octopus.
