The Jacob & Co. Quenttin wristwatch was first launched in 2007.  Within the bold, oversized rectangular 18k pink gold case, the Quenttin features a broad palette capturing the vertical movement. On the side, a tourbillon cage has been finely mounted vertically and can be admired through a sapphire crystal display in the case band.  This innovative watch also comes with an astounding power reserve of 31 days which is supplied by the energy of 7 gold colored barrels. It was the first wristwatch to carry this period of power reserve.
