As Jacob Arabo recalled, “My clients were always traveling, and they loved that I put diamonds on bezels. They dressed in so many colors back then—they needed a watch that would go with their outfits.” Few timepieces capture the exuberance of the early 2000s as vividly as Jacob & Co.’s Five Time Zone.
Featuring a central dial surrounded by four subsidiary dials displaying the times in New York, Los Angeles, Paris, and Tokyo, the model became synonymous with celebrity style and global glamour. Worn by stars and coveted by those who admired them, it remains an emblem of the era’s bold and expressive spirit.
