Jacob & Co Travel BoxJacob & Co has partnered with Universal City Studios and acquired the rights to Brian de Palma's cult movie “Scarface”.
The most iconic symbol of Brian de Palma's cult movie is the music played by the Scarface opera music box. The “Bolivia” theme, like the entire film soundtrack, was composed and produced by electronic music legend Giorgio Moroder. The melody plays for 30 seconds on demand.
The caliber JCFM04 is a movement like no other. It combines horological craftsmanship with the music from Scarface. Composed of 658 components, the movement turns while playing the film's famous main theme. Two sets of combs and blades play the notes of the 30-second melody.
The caliber JCFM04 also features a spherical tourbillon with three axes. This extremely rare complication is made even more special by the fact that it rotates along with the rest of the movement when the melody is activated on demand. Such a combination of complications is unique.
