The Jacob & Co. Epic X Bridges EX120.43.AB.AB.ABRUA represents a sophisticated evolution of Jacob & Co.’s original Epic X design, launched in 2016. It combines the art of skeletonised watchmaking with the brand’s radical design approach. Crafted from lush rose gold, this 44mm timepiece features the distinctive ‘X’ motif formed by angular lugs and a skeletonised dial, offering a captivating view of its intricate inner workings. Additionally, this watch showcases suspended bridges on the dial side, engraved beautifully with the Clou de Paris pattern. The colour used to outline these bridges defines the colour palette of the watch; here, it is a bold black. The manual-winding calibre JCAM45 powers the watch, operating at 28,800 vibrations per hour and providing a 48-hour power reserve. The skeleton dial showcases contrasting red-tipped aluminium hands, enhancing legibility against the skeletonised backdrop. A black rubber strap with a honeycomb pattern ensures a comfortable and secure fit.
