Opera Godfather Baguette

The Opera Godfather Baguette is a tribute piece and a clock that plays music. The 49mm case contains visual, symbolic and graphic elements taken directly from the film. A miniature sculpture of Don Vito Corleone sitting in his chair. The puppeteer's strings taken from the film poster. A piano and a violin-shaped crank as a reference to Nino Rota's omnipresent soundtrack, whose main theme plays on demand through the music box. The Godfather was the first film Jacob Arabo saw in the theater after arriving in the United States. 

The Godfather is not just a horological achievement. It is a deeply personal creation, a unique timepiece and an emotional concept.

The Opera Godfather Baguette is its high jewelry version, invisibly set with baguette-cut gems. Developing a high complication timepiece that has no equal is one of Jacob & Co.’s signature skills. Crafting a high jewelry version of it is another matter. Adding hundreds of exquisite baguette-cut gems to a watch with over 650 components is an integral part of Jacob & Co.’s culture.
