Today's video is gonna be on the Jacob & Co Opera.
[opening music]
So the particular version of the Opera that I have for you today happens to be a Godfather
edition.
Yes, you heard me right, Godfather.
OK, this particular watch blew me away when I saw the design.
And I really mean that, because just when you thought you had seen it all with the release
of the Astronomia, came out the Opera.
Now, at first when I saw it, I just really didn't understand what was going on there,
OK?
I saw two rollers on there.
I saw an obviously a triple-axis tourbillon and I saw a couple of things, but I really
didn't understand until I saw it in motion.
And wow!
This watch has a music box inside and we're not talking about the music boxes you had
in your Snow Glows when you were a little kid.
We're talking about two highly finished, finished to perfection music boxes inside of the dial.
Now the way that this works is, when you actually hit the melody actuator button at the 2 o'clock
position, the entire dial begins to rotate, which the whole entire movement is pretty
much on top of a cradle, begins to rotate as a whole and turns on the music box.
Believe it or not, it plays the theme song of Godfather.
I swear to God guys.
I couldn't believe it with my own eyes or hear it with my own ears!
And the more I see it, the more I like it.
One of the things that I like about this watch the most, is the seamless form that they put
the glass, OK?
It's got the case in the bottom cradling the whole mechanism in the watch.
And then it's a one-piece cut sapphire dome all the way around, the sides.
You got unobstructed view of this watch all the way around.
I mean, talk about a conversation piece.
It has the same premise as the Astronomia in the sense that the actual time goes all
the way around and still stays facing up the whole time, but what can I tell you?
It has miniature sculpture of the Godfather.
I mean, I don't know about you, but I'm sold, OK?
Godfather, Godfather.
The watch in total is 47 millimeters.
It contains steel, brass, platinum, titanium and rose gold.
Has 650 moving components.
Seventy two hour power reserve.
You know, if this doesn't fall under a �crazy watch,� I don't know what does either.
And the more I use this watch throughout the day, the more I realize that this might actually
be my favorite release at the moment from Jacob & Co.
To show you how the Opera operates is very simple.
Actually in the back here there's this tab to wind it up, very similar to a music box
as I mentioned earlier from a Snow Glow or maybe a toy when we were children.
Wind it up, hit the operation and it goes.
Now, there's a lot of detail here.
If you notice the actual cones for the music box as it plays appears like piano keys.
I mean, the detail that went into this watch, it's like the more you look at it, the more
detail is in there.
Definitely, it's all about the details with this piece and not one single detail was left
untouched.
So as far as the Watch Game goes, this is obviously a unique heavy-hitter.
I mean, how many people can say that they can play the Godfather song on their wrist?
I mean, that alone says it all.
