To gather all these perfectionist and amazingly creative people and push their limits to drop one brilliant watch after another is not a mere feat, props to Jacob for constantly doing it.
There is not much creativity about Jacob bro. He is a very shady personality and I hope he gets investigated one day. Its not like his watches are some kind of an artistic breakthrough. I can literally summon a hundred better artists than this sweatshop has
To say this was stunning is a massive understatement! Thank you to all involved, to allow us to see the shear skill that goes into this level of watch making!
@@lemcakes32422Such a common and ignorant comment! Who creates, maintains, programs and operates the machines? Humans. The machines are used because the design and the tolerances are so complex! Even then, the machines are 10% of the build process. Did you not see them hand building the watch after the machining took place?
@@lemcakes32422 maybe cheap in the sense it’s cheaper than when it was basically all hand done but both AI and these CNC machines are incredibly expensive to own and operate! My Dad and uncle owned a machine shop and make different components for f-22’s. Each cnc machine was half a million each, you have to service it, replace bits after wear etc. nothing about it is “cheap”. Clearly you don’t know what it costs to own and operate a business. The money to pay for it comes from the sales of the products it makes! These are still incredibly intricate and difficult to make and far from cheap! It’s about $1000 and hr to run a cnc machine alone!
Watching a video like this is really makes you appreciate the quality that goes into creating a Jacob watch. When we saw them complete they looked nice but we could and didnt understand what was involved. This has increased my respect for the Jacob brand tenfold!! Thank you for this masterclass Jacob and Michael.
This shows how in tune Jacob is with Producer Michael. It's awesome. The fact he has allowed the camera and footage. But no one better than Michael, he has a heart of gold.
The fact that Michael has a 1 of 1 prototype j&co yet wants to modify it to make it exactly like every other one is absolutely WILD! 😢 He must definitely plan on never selling
The whole damn point of buying jewellery is that you can buy it, wear it but then also be able to sell it. Unless you are some kind of royalty get some crown jewels you think are forever. I’d rather just buy diamonds and gold, rather than this Jacob crap
Thank you Jacob for allowing this. This is by FAR my favorite series on the channel. I can't get enough of this and if I could I would give this a million up votes. More content like this would be amazing from time to time.
I feel like I value Jacobs watches even MORE after seeing all the time, effort, and money that goes into a single watch! From the R&D, to the design, to training all of the team, programming the CNC machines.
Micheal what an amazing video, thank you to Jacob and his team and to Adam. We are grateful for the experience of seeing how the art is created. Mind blown!
Totally amazing that Jacob gave you access to film all this - normally it is TOTALLY OFF LIMIT to film these types of facilities/workshops. I am stunned - and grateful. Thanks to everyone involved in these amazing episodes.
@@lemcakes32422I highly doubt that have the anywhere near the same precision and class…. I mean you are talking Chinese, rough enough is good enough for them more often than not. They certainly don’t produce the quality of these watch’s…ever ! They are too cheap, everything a knock off and cheap. That’s actually an insult comparing it to Chinese quality which is basically what your saying
I thought you showed us amazing stuff last week,but all I can say is Jacob, wow ,no wonder it takes so long to make. Such incredible products made by such skilled people. As it's only one person assembling each watch it's added consistency. Thanks again for letting us see how they're made.
I've really enjoyed this tour! Big thanks to jacob and his team for opening their factory for us to watch. I have so much respect to the dedication and hard work they put in their watches. Great video guys!! 👊👊
I used to think watch prices were outrageous but now thanks to Jacob, Michael, Adam and the factory staff, I now understand the cost and the retail prices being asked for on these incredible devices and I'll never again roll my eyes at the prices being asked. Truely an incredible series and thankyou for opening my eyes and for teaching me so much.
Incredible video Michael! To all us watch fanatics, lovers and appreciators this is the kind of video we want! To have a look at the behind the scenes on what it takes to create these beautiful pieces enables us the consumer; to better appreciate and understand the price behind the object. The work and ideas from this facility are priceless, but you can obtain a piece of the genius through a purchase of the final product! Tremendous job by the film crew and editors making the transitions seamless and attempting to capture the small screws and parts!
Most of those machines are also Swiss built. Some of the finest CNC machines in the world. You can be proud of that too..........and you have the best mountains.
I never knew watches so large, tacky and gaudy could have such creative movements in such exquisite cases, movements and cases that are works of art in themselves.
With all the work that goes into the manufacturing and assembly, can you imagine how long the planning, creative design, technical drawings and proofing is on top of all that we saw? A true master of their craft with closely held secrets that we may never know, but we all surely can marvel at.
MY GOD! THE CRANKSHAFT TO THE CHIRON IS INSANE!!!! Honestly who can beat this man at making watches??? The complexity, work, craftmanship is just EFFEN MINDBOGGLING!!!!
@@lemcakes32422stop being hater, you literally comment every post hereto try and diminish to work that goes into this watches. So what that they use machines to manufacture micro parts, the assembly and polish is still done by humans so it is the perfect synergy between high tech machining and hand made precision. If the watchmakers 100 years ago had access to this technology they would no doubt use it as well, it's called evolution, progress. Stop hating and better spend your time on something more important for you.
@@kamil151 its not hand made its automated cnc machine parts. stop trying to cover up. its quite cheap to produce. its 3rd party company too using raw materials from China
the most amazing aspect of this entire episode is trying to wrap my head around the fact that ultimately everything you see: the machines, the parts, the technical drawings - all started out in someone's mind. I've always been fascinated by mechanical watches and the idea that a person, hundreds of years ago, was able to envision and then actually create all the tiny parts and fit them together to keep time.
Thank you Jacob and Michael, this video was a real eye opener to the extreme detail that goes into these stunning watches, and really makes you appreciate why they are the price they sell for. Absolute precision, perfection and dedication by so many for each step that goes into making one piece. I don’t think many truly understood the time, money, and ALL the work that goes into making that one piece, it’s just incredible. I Truly, truly appreciate seeing inside the factory and the dedicated perfection into every watch, you couldn’t really imagine the scope of it all by seeing the end product. Jacob you really looked so very proud of your factories and the ingenuity behind the scenes, seeing Michael and Adam’s amazement at it all, it is mind blowing, and you have every right to be so very proud Jacob, you always show that with your exquisite watches but the factories are another level altogether. Thank you so very much for sharing this amazing piece of your dedication to your watches to us all and allowing Michael and Adam to film it. ❤ Love from Australia ❤❤❤
900 components and over one month to assemble. If you divide out 8 hours a day, 5 days a week it comes out to about 5 components an hour. Seems like they are milking the clock a bit when you consider that most of the shots we saw was dropping a gear onto an axle which took 10 seconds...
Jacob spent 3.5 years in prison. He probably got the idea of the Caligula and the Rasputin from there. Those two watches mark the dropping of the soap 🫡
Ypu don't need those clickbait titles, please remain authentic . Authenticity is what is valued on social media. So please don't make Jacob says it's the first time Michael saw the factories when it's not (he said it in a previous episode)
The truth behind Jacob and co is that he’s never created a watch in his life. He has another company create every single part of the watch. He just adds jewels.
He designs every movement, and not 1 person can make all of these pieces by themselves, or even by hand, we need these amazing machines to create these awesome watches
Absolutely bazaar. Thank you so much Michael for bringing it to the front of the camera. We now understand and appreciate much more what Jacob is producing. This is top of the notch fabrication machines and the whole process is outstanding!
i just love every video with Jacob. I could never afford any of this watches, but it's fascinating to watch this incredible watches and the art behind it.
I love seeing watches being made and I love the intricate workings of a Jacob & Co watches. I was good friends with a watch repair man who built watches for one of the big brands before he came to the states. He was teaching me some watch repair but had to retire because of his sight was failing and moved back to Switzerland. I watch a lot of repair and build videos of watches. I can see why years of looking thru a loupe could speed up the loss of eyesight. Maybe someday I will be able to afford a Jacob & Co.
What an unbelievable video and what unbelievable watches !!! I genuinely love the technical aspects of the watch builds it is literally mind blowing !!!!
What a fabulous insight to a groundbreaking brand & many many thanks to Jacob for allowing access to his facility, an amazing video Michael & thank you also!!!
Absolutely amazing how intricate everything is and how much time goes into making these beautiful pieces of artwork for your wrist thanks 🙏🏼 for sharing this process ❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉

Jacob was dying inside when Michael wants to make his watch like all the others.. even Adam was a little sassy about it! 😂😂
You know the movement is incredible when it looks super awesome without a case

@@lemcakes32422 Superficially perhaps, because they bought some of the Swiss equipment in the 1970s when the quartz revolution first hit.

This is just amazing, thank you Jacob and Micheal and team, mind blowing.
Honestly it makes so much sense why those watches are expensive, this is a whole new level of artistry.
no art just machines
Bullshit. All watches are made the same. Even if they cost 500 or 1 million . Their watches are overpriced
@@lemcakes32422
if what they are doing ain't art, what is?

I always love to see Jacobs passion for his watches, but i think i've never seen him this happy and proud before.
Amazing, Thank You Jacob......
Thanks for showing this Michael, Jacob and the team at Jacob & Co. Such stunning pieces. Impressive work. 👏🏻
I've really enjoyed this tour! Big thanks to jacob and his team for opening their factory for us to watch. I have so much respect to the dedication and hard work they put in their watches. Great video guys!! 👊👊
Besides the amazing lab and watchmaker secrets, just love the chemistry of Jacob & Michael. Bravo!
You have to be a very special person and personality to assemble those complicated movements. That profession requires enormous patient and passion.
Believe it or not, it’s not as complicated as you think. It’s all in the education and training. Once you learn the craft it’s simple.
I love the behind the scenes of watches and jewelry! Thank you for taking us to Jacob's!
Love this video. Jacob deserves all the success he has built. Love that Michael can do this. Incredible
Yes, specially after he served 3.5 years in prison
Yes , he Really deserves it after a becoming convict … lol

Hands down the best watch video I have seen on RUclips. Unbelievable the access they allowed Michael and Adam to film.
Incredible just incredible..my appreciation for Jacob & Co is taken to another level…thank you all for sharing this incredible insight.
Do not change the original prototype. It’s worth more that way since it’s one of a kind.
Agree! Michael is better off buying a whole new piece instead of changing a one off prototype !
You can’t buy class

Dude has a piece unique and wants to change it to the standard production style 🤦🏼♂️

Michael talks about how amazing and difficult the process is, and in his next breath, ask for everything for free. I'm embarrassed for him.

That was exactly what I thought
why would it take one month assemble? that is just bs. they assemble cars in a few days
Love that we see more from this jacob looks happy to see his product being made and how they are surprised about each thing
Jacob spent 3.5 years in prison. He probably got the idea of the Caligula and the Rasputin from there. Those two watches mark the dropping of the soap 🫡
what was he in prison for?

What a pathetic sad thing to say. Someone’s not happy with life
You dont realise that they shot both videos on the same day?
when previous episode were uploaded they already finished recording the tour.
Incredible workmanship the patient and time and 200 plus team effort I’ve learned so much
The truth behind Jacob and co is that he’s never created a watch in his life. He has another company create every single part of the watch. He just adds jewels.
That’s the State of the Watch industry from top to bottom. They either do it in Europe or China. Bespoke is very rare. It’s all machine made nowadays.
