At the end of the rainbow: fake Jacob & Co. launches the Astronomical Flower Garden Rainbow
For a long time, the rainbow has been regarded as a beacon of hope at the end of the storm, has prevailed throughout history and has become a universal symbol of optimism. Looking to the future, Jacob & Co is now looking forward to Astronomia Fleurs de Jardin’s latest work in Rainbow. This breathtaking timepiece is designed to recreate a garden on your wrist, with rainbow colors and drawing power from the delicate butterfly tourbillon movement. The tourbillon, time display and upper multi-colored sapphire flowers all rotate clockwise around the dial, while the mother-of-pearl base with rainbow sapphire flowers rotates counterclockwise. The bezel and inner ring of the 18K rose gold case are inlaid with rainbow sapphires, and the top of the movement is inlaid with an incredible 288-faced Jacob-cut grass green tsavorite.
Fleurs de Jardin was launched in 2019 and immediately changed people’s perception of women’s timepieces. Jacob & Co. combined the technologies learned by Astronomia and Astronomia Solar to create the first truly advanced complication designed for women. In 2019, Fleurs de Jardin officially stood out from hundreds of ladies’ timepieces and was selected as the “Oscar” GPHG ladies complication category in the watchmaking world. This choice highlights the importance of Fleurs de Jardin in the field of watches.
The most important challenge in making a rainbow watch is sourcing gems of the correct color. The designer team of Jacob & Co. is at the forefront with excellent craftsmanship and is a master of sourcing and selecting gems. Fleur de Jardin showcases their expertise in perfect colors and is a gemstone masterpiece. The rainbow 42.5 mm 18k rose gold bezel is set with 40 rainbow sapphires, while the inner ring is set with 48 rainbow sapphires.
At the top of the movement is a beautiful green, 288-faced Jacob-cut tsavorite, while the frame with 11 flowers and kite-shaped multi-color sapphires rotates clockwise around the dial in ten minutes . The flying tourbillon and the time display also rotate clockwise within ten minutes. The mother-of-pearl base inlaid with rainbow sapphire flowers rotates counterclockwise every 10 minutes. This stunning new version of Fleurs de Jardin is limited edition.
Hidden under the exquisite beauty is the legendary timepiece craftsmanship famous by Jacob and co, including the vertical astronomical dual-axis flying tourbillon movement, which rotates clockwise around the central axis for ten minutes, and the patented differential gear allows the time display to remain 12/6 The system at the o’clock position, no matter where it is in the rotation. In addition, the flying tourbillon frame rotates once every sixty seconds.
The end of the rainbow hides the story of treasure, but with Jacob & Co.’s new Fleur de Jardin, you don’t need to look at your wrist.
