Jacob & Co. Astronomia Solar Baguette

The Astronomia is the epitome of 21st century haute horlogerie and a globally recognized symbol of Jacob & Co watchmaking expertise. A world-first both in the boldness of its unprecedented concept and its entirely mechanical construction, the Astronomia has gone beyond impressive horological achievements and been regarded as an outstanding multidisciplinary engineering achievement. Re-engineered from the ground up, the Astronomia Solar is the most compact in our peerless collection of Astronomia calibers.

Despite its close-packed design, the Astronomia Solar Baguette features the precious center of our Solar System as a Jacob-Cut®, 288-facet gemstone sphere, placed on the rotating platform of the Astronomia Solar caliber. Its three main arms carry the differential-driven, self-leveling time display, the magnesium globe in hand-painted blue for a spectacular representation of Planet Earth, and the one-minute flying tourbillon regulating organ. Serving as their backdrop is the Aventurine Skylayer with seven cabochon-cut precious stones, representing the planets of our Solar System.
