Jacob the Jeweler smothers his G5 design in a myriad of baguette
diamonds aptly named the "Grand Baguette" . The effect is dazzling
display of overall perfection achieved by precisely matched stones for
clarity, color and carat. The gem setting is practically invisible
accentuating the intriguing shape of the case rather than smothering
it.
The original design of five sided case signature of the G5 Collection
is the brain child of Jacques Fournier CEO of Horology
Design Limited. Jacques Fournier worked closely with the brand owner
collaborating on every aspect of the design process. Jacques Fournier
brings vague ideas to solid realization of form. With the aid of 3D
visuals and animation; precise technical drawings, Jacques Fournier
turns the guess work of new designs into educated calculations. The
five sided case was also incorporated in Jacob & Co. "The Ghost" - a multi-timezone GPS digital timepiece, which made its debut back in 2012.
As
to how many diamonds make up the "Grand Baguette? 360 baguette
diamonds on the case, 120 on the dial and a brilliant cut diamond at its
center. The five crowns are non forgotten and glitter with 3.5
baguette carat diamonds. All in all ,except for the crowns, one can
count 761 diamonds.
As to the price - well its up
there no doubt and only revealed to the earnest of buyers. A mere 6
pieces will be available throughout the globe and no doubt will become a
heirloom for generations.
