When a world class famous jeweler turns his attention to make watches, you know the pieces are going to be ONE OF A KIND. My good friend and fellow watch enthusiast Teddy Baldassarre joins me in New York City to take a look at some of the most unique and expensive watch pieces in the world.
Teddy bringing the knowledge, Jacob the passion, and Kevin…. well at least he made the video happen. Good stuff
Kevin the collector
you forgot the only thing that matters, money
Yeah, kevins got the money. Buying the watches. No kevin no devon
He is the person who can actually afford these watches...
Kevin looks like a Butler...
Producer Michael fans here
Ew go away
S/O to the Producer Michael haters, dude is a grade A phony
Same here
Relize that the time between ny and la are wrong? Watch says 5 for ny 1 for la that’s 4 and there only 3 hours behind smh so much for expensive watch
@@baxoutthebox5682 lol what producer michael cool ya just hating I watch all his videos
I respect teddy’s honesty. These watches clearly are not ‘him’ yet. He understands and loves the engineering.. the price point and sales suggest the market exists and watches can be both ‘ugly’ yet beautiful at the same time ❤
He was speaking and interrupted him and said all right next..wtf..
jacob and co watches are crap, no offense.
I feel like teddy would absolutely love philippe dufour watches. They're classic and elegent with absolutely insane engineering underneath them.
Really MASSIVE props to your photography and videography team. Truly showing us the beauty and incredible detail of each piece. Absolutely stunning attention to detail and composition !!
I’d put money that it’s Teddy’s photo/video team lol
They used a lot of footage that Jacob & Co shot of their own products
I feel like Teddy and Jacob could talk watches for days. He looks like a kid in a toy store getting to see all the pieces he has drooled over for years. What an incredible experience
The green watch with the green strap is a buity Mr all your watches look good fit for a master
Teddy can’t talk, it is not a conversation but a monologue
teddy hardly spoke bro don't know what video you watched.
Teddy kept saying 'from an engineering perspective' because i think design wise he hates these watches
I think Teddy appreciate the technical exercise but I don't think he actually likes these watches or want to add one to his collection
If I could afford a Jacob watch, I would never get anything done because I would be looking at the watch all day.
his base watches are actually really affordable
@@rpnp2 let’s be honest, nobody wants his base offerings. The magic of his timepieces are in the extravagantly complicated and flooded with gems pieces.
@@TheNotoriousKID Wrong.
Jesus
Honestly those base X watches are amazing looking. $13,000 ish still
That Solar Astronomia is absolutely amazing. Say what you will about J&Co, but the mechanical and engineering aspect of his pieces is unreal.
True really remarkable.
These movements easy to make
The fact there are engineers that can even create wrist watches such as these Jacob & Co watches let’s you know the possibilities are absolutely endless. Jacob & Co is like the NASA of wrist wear. I don’t think there will EVER be another brand that brings such innovation to fruition in the Watch World as Jacob has brought. His watches are truly one of a kind.
Not really. The watches are so big that it’s not that difficult making the complications by hand. Tacky too but he sells so it’s a question of personal taste 😊
As an engineer, anything can be created for the right amount of money and time
You just believe anything they tell you, i guarantee you these watches are made for a 10th of the price they sell them. Just marketing bs
@@eggeggeggegg3077 limited production concept stuff typically has bad return on investment overall. this is true in most industries with concept or showcase models, they are built for the prowess of the brand. jacob and co is a weird case where they don't have anything mass produced so they have to make a profit just from the crazy stuff. and yeah they aren't pushing the boundaries of horology or clever engineering but the designs are probably expensive to put into production and the finishing is absolutely insane. pretty sure i spotted mirrored chamfered edges along the contour of the teeth on some of the gears...these are not cheap watches to produce
You definitely are 12 years old
I was watching this on my television, but had to switch to my phone to make a comment. When Kevin asked Teddy his opinion in the beginning on the multiple time zone watch, Teddy was smooth with his response. Instead of being fake and saying he loved it, he said it’s unique then proceeded to change the subject. Well done
Like most, I’ve seen many Jacob watches as gaudy beyond justification. But Jacob himself shows a true passion for design and watchmaking that makes me appreciate their work much more. The Astronomia Solar is still one of my favorite watches. The Astronomia line altogether is really phenomenal.
Well said. Agreed.
Aye, indeed. A mixture of gaudy, tacky and gargantuan, but mixed with innovative genius.
Not having the money to buy these watches does not necessitate not respecting the art made and the artist's work, effort. Absolutely breathtaking pieces. I recommend everyone to read the life story of Mr. Arabo. Very inspiring..
Teddy's kind of all of us right now. Trying to keep a straight face (because this stuff is gaudy and overpriced) but giving credit where it's due. Like you said, from an engineering standpoint some of the stuff is pretty remarkable.
IT'S FAIRLY PRICED TO KEEP OUT THE PEASANTS & HOLD EXCLUSIVITY
That's exactly the vibe, I got. "I mean... from the engineering perspective...."
@@THEBIGGESTSCUMBAG the name and the use of caps lock....perfect.
@@THEBIGGESTSCUMBAG it's still overpriced 😂
@@spilot1016 That’s, exactly, the, vibe, I, got” You forgot to add more unnecessary commas. I fixed it for you.
I like how Teddy deflected Kevin's first question. Jacobs does what some think RM is doing.
It’s Teddy’s show, he asks the questions :)
@@wristroll_vlad But it's not. This is Kevin's channel.
So true, Teddy is so sharp
@@wristroll_vlad You made this comment not knowing whose channel this is? Clown Hahah.
timestamp?
I love how Kevin was praising literally the crapiest watch Jacob ever made, a quartz Mickey Mouse looking watch, then he asks teddy, teddy couldn’t lie about it and say something good, he just deflected the question 😂
Lol epic
@@nicholashahn3476 Kevin will shill anything for money.
That's your opinion and it's worth zero 👌
@@cleancutlawnservice1 I guess it worth enough for you to take time out of your day to comment on it 😂😂😂😂
This watch is embarrassing. Why the hell they even though to make a quartz watch?
these are absolutely incredible pieces of art. i just love how bold and beautiful they are on the wrist and Jacob is such a great man behind the brand. i dream of owning one of his flagships.
i really feel like kevin wants to buy those 2 at the end but he's resisting.
Mr. Jacob is truly a horological genius. One could do a separate video for each one of these watches. Masterful as well in how he combines technological concepts with high-end jewelry designs resulting in such insanely ELEGANT pieces. THANK YOU!!!!
More like a design genius for the niche market that are super expensive luxury items, the horological geniuses are the engineers that make his visions come true. Not trying to detract anything from anyone, clearly he's gifted at what he does, just pointing out what exactly is.
oh now as a watch fanatic, this is an awesome video!! All three of you guys are the best knowledge fountains for watches!! Glad Teddy has taught Kevin so much about watches!!
It’s like looking at the best of the best contemporary art. Thank you Kevin and Teddy for opening those doors to us.
The videos with Teddy and watch representatives are really insightful and entertaining!
Jacob is the most underrated person in the watch business. I hope he gets his shine like Richard Mille did
Love that Kevin brought Teddy along. The dynamic duo !
I've actually left a post on Teddy's Facebook asking would he consider looking into Jacob & Co
"Kevin, how much do you love Jacob?"
Kevin- "Yes"
Thank you for another great video mate. I enjoyed every second. Please keep it coming.
I’ve said it elsewhere - one of the great things about UA-cam is getting to watch people living their dream.
Getting to see Teddy with these two gentlemen and those watches is an honour.
What about Your dream?
Lol
Producer Michael has done several segments with Jacob & Co. watches. There was a nice double barrel tourbillon in one video limited to 18 pieces. The price was $800,000 USD.
Thank you for bringing this info to us with their prices Kevin. Much appreciated. Well done sir.
Thank-you for this incredible experience
Its not often that i find a video that totally blows me away and yet here i am....blown away 😮. These watches are like the concept cars we see that we wish would become production models. I'm still mind blown over his genius for watch designs, i may never in my life be able to afford one but at least i got to see them so I'll be content with that joy.
He seems like such a down to earth guy who perfected his craft
You can’t but admire Jacob&Co for the absolute conviction to the idea . The craftsmanship, the detail , it’s a different level of horological mastery .
Great content, thank you Kevin for opening up the world of watches. Jacob & Co definitely a luxury Brand, iconic.
Well, I've saved wallpaper for my desktop to drool over for years. Insanely beautiful works of art. Thank you so much for showing them to us. Just incredible Tourbillon work.
Kevin says he brings Teddy into the watch world in a big way... while Teddy is given a tour of every watch manufacturer headquarter in the world by their respective CEOs.
Yes, it was a bit condenscending, but he got some respect back when he deflected Kevin's question/opinion regarding the 5-time zone at 2:47. Although I would say Kevin has likely helped Teddy's image and profile within the watch industry.
He speaks to Teddy like he’s a child. As expected, Kevin’s arrogance and condescending attitude far exceeds his actual knowledge of horology. Teddy is all class, Kevin has none.
Teddy is far beyond being Kevins "Grasshopper" He has knowledge and style . Far beyond the rough rude and regrettable Butler sitting in the middle
between the two refined gentlemen.
To be fair, Kevin knows Teddy knows more about watches than him (which is why he likes to make content with him) and the jokes about Teddy being his “grasshopper” and stuff like that are just that; jokes. Because Kevin is clearly the one doing the learning in many of the videos, and it’s usually from Teddy himself lol.
Yeah. Teddy knows way more
This was so well done. Amazing video! Thank you
from simple to complicated designs....truly fascinating
Jacob is truly Innovative, way better than what any RM could be. He however, needs a great marketing to match.
I wouldn’t say better, RM is equally innovative and a lot more wearable. Most people that hate RM don’t even know half the watches they’ve made
@@GODOFLIQUOR I don't agree. There's nothing innovative about a pilfered Case idea from Franck Muller. Granted, they might have some top shelf material science knowledge in their labs and even that's debatable but there's absolutely nothing RM offers that is worth a fraction of the asking price on their pieces.
@@GODOFLIQUOR RM is just genius marketing.
@@D_Chief.EXACTLY!
@@GODOFLIQUOR no...each and every RM I've seen is mostly a plastic cuboid with cost in millions..... whereas jacob has watches that are actually innovative and with intresting features...each and every single watch is a candy on its own with distinct looks and features and not an exact replica of the previous one..
Jacob sure does deserve the fame it's getting lately..
that trio is perfect, everyone is so calm, watches are amazing, top noch !
Great HD detail in these videos. Really brings the watches to life 👍🏻
Great video Kevin. Well done.
The way teddy changed conversation when kevin asked for his opinion on the first watch😂😂
Love the enginering of it. That's some amazing tech. Thx for the video!
I love watching these 2 gentlemen together.
The first time I saw Teddy in awe struck by any watches.
Awestruck but disgusted. They are pretentious and ugly and not to Teddys taste. You can tell hence he never once says beautiful etc. Look at the watches Teddy wears, Nomos for example. Clean, simple and very functional.
@@adamf8335 Agreed. You can tell this was not his idea and he’s looking for positive things to say.
Jacob, Jailed for washing over $300 million in drugs money alongside Kevin, who's actions contributed to billions being lost in a crypto fraud.. what a f@#king pair of absolute losers.
Teddy has 0 interest in those overpriced watches. Teddy promotes helping people buy watches without breaking the bank.
@@traindawg21 and that are not a minimum of 44mm
Wearing a rotating solar system and an engine on your wrist is wild
Interesting and beautiful pieces. Thanks for sharing.❤
Pieces of art. Incredible master ship. Love it
For a long time I didn't understand this Jacob dude. But what I now realise is that he is not a "watchmaker" in the manner of George Daniels or F.P.Journe. Rather he is an artist creating a kind of ultra elite _jewellery_ which incorporates watchmaking. In many cases they are miniature sculptures - so literal works of art. The diamond piece also totally makes sense from Jacob. An "iced out" Rolex or Patek or AP always struggles to avoid a feeling of vulgarity, because is a watch (in the pure sense) which has just been 'pimped out' with diamonds! However the Jacob was conceived and created intrinsically as a piece of jewellery. It is actually very beautiful. If folks like major sports stars can afford to drop crazy millions, this is what they should be looking at, IMO.
I love the way Teddy didn’t get into any technical details on that 5 time zone watch. He says I unique, its different…….. Then immediately went to ask question. True professional.
That's the least technical watch Jacob makes.
@@rpnp2 That's the point, there's so many other watches to spend time talking about their movement. No need to ramble about what Kevin brought with him to suck up to Jacob.
@@rpnp2 I know. That my point. He didn’t have anything good to say about that crappy watch.
Jacob is the leader in watches beautiful craftsmanship & design nothing better imo 🙏🏻
Incredible design and engineering, this was a fun video to watch.
“I took the whole solar system and fit it in this watch”
“That’s very approachable”
Kevin’s one liners are hilarious
That really is incredible engineering. I would love to see what they could do if they applied that to other things like cars or architecture
They do, Bugatti, Rolls Royce, Koenigsegg, Ferrari, mclaren
This is incredible. Mindblowing someone can actually do such unique watches. Pure steampunk
Kevin and Teddys friendship makes the best videos
I don't know what is more crazy, the watches or the fact that Kevin could buy the whole collection several times over and still be insanely rich.
No, he couldn’t. The guys nearly broke. That’s why he’s doing a UA-cam video on watches.
@@msabccbscnnoanfoxnews let me guess, your source is what? Trust me bro? 😂 Did you not see his latest purchase? Stop spreading nonsense dude.
@@behnambabaknia6843 what are your sources? Should we just trust you?
Only sources I need is FTX.
@@msabccbscnnoanfoxnews lol your source which is what exactly? Go on give me the source that can show for a fact he's broke. You can't, because he's not broke. Please look up his net worth, while net worth doesn't mean that he has his net worth available in cash it still shows he's wealthier than most people on this planet. Also even on that FTX deal he made money considering he was paid 15 mil for his role at FTX, deduct the 10 mil loss and he's still at 5 mil gain. Again please stop spreading nonsense
Watch afficionados are notoriously snobbish and dismissive and it's easy to look at Jacob and Co and say that his watches are gimmicky. But the community don't look down on his watches. Outside of the precious stones, the engineering of the watches are other-worldly. Even if it's explained to you how the watch works, it's still hard to understand. And every debut of his new watch, it's a surprise and that nobody else has done it before. Love that he's soft spoken and not arrogant. Amazing.
Absolutely crazy! Pieces of art!
Jacob & Co watches, landed to Earth from different planets 🪐
Outstanding Art / Watches.
Bravo Jacob and Thank you for video 👍
My heart bleeds when I see a super complicated watch and I can’t afford it. At last, Ted & Mr wonderful agreed to the same watches. Jacob & Co is the GOAT
How many times can you interrupt Jacob ?
Kevin : Yes
Thank you for the two astronomias jacob......... I love em ......great craftsmanship
I love the duo and I love these videos just keep them coming!
They really need to let Jacob finish talking rather than talking over him and asking questions before he has a chance to finish.
Every time Jacob starts to explain something, Kevin cuts him off. Classic Kevin
Amazing work Jacob. I will have one of your beautiful watches soon. Mesmerizing
My favorite episode yet, the two teddy picked are my favorite as well.
Kevin's kinda subtle arrogance kills it every time, "grasshopper" lmao. The atmosphere was tense there for some reason
Legit, the guy is so damn rude! He's a guest yet rushing Jacob around like wtf.
In one interview at Jacob & Co., in this same room the staff brought in six briefcases full of watches. Some were on clearance sale at $4,000 and others were over $100,000. I know one AD near me and he can't keep these watches in stock they sell so well.
I love that for every detail and every reason he has a story. The reason they are bigger, the reason he chooses different parts. His thinking is remarkable
The line at 1:05 could not have done more justice to Jacob & Co. Brilliant video.
Teddy is a giant.. it’s like I’m looking at Aragorn sitting next to Frodo Baggins and Samwise Gamgee discussing watches…
😂😂😂 it maybe the angle of the Camara😂😂😂
trying to guess what Teddy is thinking at any given moment!
Thank you for sharing this.
That Buggati thing is out of the box!
Thanks for the art in Watchs
That boy Teddy must be learning so much
I feel like Jacob is talking to teddy more because he seems more knowledgeable Kevin seems too pushy and know it all ish
@@millisisle little Teddy has really only been in the game a short while.
@@cfrontron long enough to know I'm sure he been in the game much longer than youtube his energy and knowledge and passion for watches proves it
@@cfrontron agree to disagree I understand your point and I stick with my opinion
@@millisisle nah
What a true artist
jacob solarium
Seems like a great guy too ! Wow, and in his voice you could distinguish quite a lot of humbleness, which for what he has accomplished is unheard of. This guy is a LEGEND !
I love this just because it shows me watches that I would probably never see in my life otherwise. I just got into watch collecting and I know I'll never get to this realm of watches, so it's really cool to see this.
he should make one based on a pinball machine.
Batman and Robin the dynamic duo
Well I have to give the man the respect he deserves, this is some serious skills plus effort we are talking here.
Incredible, thanks for this video.
Individuals are still buying and holding crypto coin? I didn’t know that , I guess a few know about integrating into the micro economy to help substitute FIAT or usdt for a more tangible exchange Experience, it more like capitalization with about 43.307% profits/ ROI weekly though.. ps.. Valerie Anne got me covered thanks
After I got upto 300K trading with Mrs Valerie Ann Pate. I bought a new House and I'm now able to send my kids to a better school in the states thanks to Mrs Valerie Ann Pate. When someone is straight forward with what he or she is doing people will always speak up for them.
I have also been trading with her, The profits are secured and over a 100% return on investment directly sent to your wallet
How I'm in need of her assistance?
That’s her What’sapp info she mostly active here
I am from Denver Colorado USA I connected with her and she has helped me a lot,she makes so much profit for me she is a FINRA agent, the best I can invest with so far ever since I came across expert Mrs Valerie Ann Pate, my bad turned out being good and profitable. She's made success earlier than we thought.
Teddy trying to hold back his reaction to the ridiculousness is in itself worth the price of these watches. 😂
Jacob's pieces are more art then timepieces... 🔥❤🔥
These watches are beautiful, not only the gems but the amount of moving parts.
The FTX king himself. buying them fine watches
Producer Michael first introduced Kevin to Jacob's watches and is a friend of Jacob. It feels wrong that Kevin didn't take Michael to visit Jacob first, especially since it seems like Teddy doesn't even like Jacob's watches very much.
Michael is a customer of Jacob&co. You really think Kevin was ignorant to Jacob&co?
Thank you for sharing
They are amazing watches. I will never own one, but I can appreciate the artistry.
The level of arrogance by this dinosaur calling Teddy “ my grasshopper”….🤦🏻♂️
Jacob and Co is kind of like Hublot for the ultra rich. Lots of crazy stuff going on, nothing is really ugly, nothing is really attractive, but it's all just different and hard to wear. Plus incredibly expensive. Hublot expensive for the "average rich" and Jacob for the "ultra rich".
Hublot does not have inhouse movement even compared to jacob
@@lh1533The Big Bang Unico, Meca-10, and their Tourbillons (like the MP-05 LaFerrari) are all in-house.
awesome content. Thanks for sharing
I love watching your videos Kevin. English is not my first language and I'm still learning the language. I want to be as masterful as you when it comes to the art of conversation. You are a joy to watch and listen to especially when you collaborate with Teddy and Producer Michael (both great great guys and watch enthusiasts). This is one great epsiode, thanks for tagging Teddy along, he represents ever entry level guys like me 😂.
Oh God imagine a foreigner trying to talk like Kevin lol, holy cringe. Let me guess you are from India or Bangladesh
@@chazzbranigaan9354 nope what made you think that? That's prejudice. It's probably the conscious racist side in you that couldn't resist commenting something like this just to make you feel better.
I will forever be indebted to you you've changed my whole life continue to preach about your name for the world to hear you've saved me from a huge financial debt with just little investment, thanks so much Mrs. Belinda Owens
Wow, amazing to see others trading with Ms. Belinda Owens, I am currently on my 5th trade with her and my portfolio has grown tremendously.
My first investment in mrs. Belinda Owens gave me the confidence that led me to invest without fear of loss. I have already taken 3 of my friends to their guide and they are fine.
She is really great at what she does with amazing skills, she changed my 0.1BTC to 2.1BTC within two weeks of trading, I am now fully confident that she is reliable.
