At the End of a Rainbow: Jacob & Co. Introduces the Astronomia Fleurs de Jardin Rainbow

Long seen as a beacon of hope at the end of a storm, rainbows have prevailed throughout history as the universal symbol for optimism. Look to the future and see a rainbow with Jacob &amp; Co&rsquo;s latest take on the Astronomia Fleurs de Jardin now in Rainbow. Designed to recreate a garden on your wrist, this breath-taking timepiece features the colours of the rainbow and draws its power from a delicate butter-fly tourbillon movement. The tourbillon, time display, and upper level multi-coloured sapphire flowers all travel around the dial clockwise, while the mother-of-pearl base set with rainbow sapphire flowers moves counter clockwise. The 18K rose gold case features a bezel and inner ring set with rainbow sapphires, and atop the movement sits an incredible 288-facet Jacob-cut grass-green tsavorite.&nbsp;

Introduced in 2019, the Fleurs de Jardin instantly transformed the way people viewed feminine horology. Incorporating the techniques learned with the Astronomia and the Astronomia Solar, Jacob &amp; Co. created its first true high complication specifically designed for women. In 2019, the Fleurs de Jardin was officially pre-selected from hundreds of women&rsquo;s timepieces for inclusion in the Ladies Complication category of the GPHG, the &ldquo;Oscars&rdquo; of watchmaking. This selection underscores the Fleurs de Jardin&rsquo;s importance in horology.&nbsp;

The most important challenge that arises when crafting a rainbow watch is sourcing the right colour gemstones. With exceptional craftsmanship at the forefront, the team of designers at Jacob &amp; Co. are masters in sourcing and selecting stones. Showcasing their expertise with flawless colour, the Fleur de Jardin is a gemstone masterpiece. The 42.5mm 18k rose gold bezel of the rainbow is set with 40 rainbow sapphires, while the inner ring features 48 rainbow sapphires.&nbsp;

Sitting on top of the movement is a beautiful green, 288-facet Jacob-cut tsavorite, while the frame carrying 11 flowers with kite-shaped multi-coloured sapphires rotates clockwise once around the dial in ten minutes. The flying tourbillon and the time display also rotate clockwise in ten minutes. The mother-of-pearl base set with rainbow sapphire flowers rotates counter clockwise in 10 minutes. This stunning new version of the Fleurs de Jardin is limited to 101 pieces.&nbsp;
