Jacob & Co.Epic X ChronoModel No: EC312.42.PB.GR.AHB4D

The first Epic X watch was presented by Jacob & Co. in 2015, and it set itself apart from the rest of the watches by the brand in the sense that it wasn’t that wild, if you can believe it. One familiar with Jacob & Co. knows its outrageous and esoteric approach towards watchmaking and its timepieces that are always armoured with high complications and a wealth of details. Therefore, the launch of Epic X came across as Jacob & Co.’s attempt at subtlety. But with one look at the watch, you know this is no subtle timepiece but a bold, singular, and intricate piece of watchmaking that draws attention instantly.

The complexity and extravagance one expects from Jacob & Co. are expressed on this Epic X Chrono through a unique case construction and an unusual glass dial that displays the movement inside. The white ceramic case, 47mm wide and 14mm thick, is juxtaposed with red gold and carries the signature X-shaped lugs that appear to have emerged from the gold detailing on the bezel. 200m water-resistant, the case carries the crown and chronograph pushers on the right and an additional crown on the left to operate the rotating inner bezel.

At Second Movement, the pre-owned division of Ethos Watches, we adhere to a rigorous verification process where expert watchmakers carefully inspect every watch to certify its authenticity, ensuring it is not counterfeit. We also go to the maximum extent possible to ensure that the timepiece is not a stolen property and that all duties are paid. However, in the absence of any central database, a 100% verification is unlikely for any pre-owned entity in India. Nevertheless, we can still provide a provenance guarantee for watches purchased from Ethos.
