BRILLIANT MYSTERY

In 2017, Jacob & Co. created a new ladies’ collection that looked like no other. Round, without lugs, with a strap directly attached to the case, Brilliant was designed to be versatile, precious and to embrace the entire range of gems Jacob & Co. loves. Brilliant Mystery is the ultimate evolution of Brilliant in creativity, gem-setting and technique.

Brilliant Mystery is a tribute to one of the greatest achievements of high watchmaking : Mystery Clocks. First invented by 19th century watchmaker and illusionist Jean-Eugène Robert-Houdin, they amazed the crowds with their intriguing and apparently impossible mechanisms. An island sits in the middle of the ring-shaped case, with two floating black triangles telling the time. Instant puzzling follows the amazement created by the all-around gem-setting.
