As a result, Jacob & Co. has access to the very best sources of diamonds and gemstones from all over the world. Many of the gem-set timepieces, like the Fleurs de Jardin, require meticulous care in the choosing of stones for quality, cut, clarity, and matching colour. This can take many months or years, depending on the exact colours needed. Jacob & Co. is also an expert in the setting of these stones, working with the very best gem setters in the industry. In fact, Jacob & Co. has even pioneered its own proprietary cut, the 288-facet Jacob-cut. The Fleurs de Jardin features a Jacob-cut gemstone in the very centre of the timepiece. CASE & CRYSTAL The Fleurs de Jardin is housed in a very wearable and comfortable 42.5mm 18K gold case. Anti- reflective sapphire crystals cover the front, back and sides of the watch, while gemstones adorn the bezel and the inner case ring. DIAL & HANDS The hour and minute dial of the Fleurs de Jardin is made of rose gold PVD titanium and mother-of- pearl, with Roman numeral hours. As this dial is constantly turning, the time display always stays in the correct 12/6 position thanks to an ingenious patented differential system. The hands indicating the time are rose gold-plated. What better way to welcome summer than with the Astronomia Fleurs de Jardin – an exquisite bouquet for your wrist. Simply Abu Dhabi | 291
