I like how he calls his Dad Jacob, showing respect to the man who he calls close family and the person who actually built Jacob and Co. His son is a class act, this interview truly shows that. Exciting times ahead for Jacob and Co with this young man at the helm.
That is really spectacular collage of watches on that wall Roman. Jacob & Co really do build high horology and jeweled watches. I really love the godfather and the Bugatti. Great episode today, keep them coming. 😊
I have heard about Jacob & Co through Producer Michael videos. When one thinks of jewelry houses building watches; Cartier, Bulgari, and LVMH come to mind first. The watches in this video are stunning and innovative from a design perspective. Probably out of my price range, but the watches featured in this video are truly eye catching.Perhaps next year Jacob & Co will be at Watches & Wonders.
The artistry, craftsmanship, and creativity that comes out of Jacob & Co is amazing. Now what they produce isn't something I'd buy, but that's personal preference and there is no one doing aftermarket "bling" that can come anywhere close to what Jacob & Co are doing.
You wouldn't buy because someone said you shouldn't. Bet If all dealers tomorrow said the Rolex rainbow is thrash, you would follow suit. Why do you strongly feel Jacob & Co Watches are bad, ask yourself and try to come up with your own reason, let's see.
Its nice when you can leave the family business with no worries or pressure and come back when you want and walk into the top job!!! very lucky guy. Not sure he's the driving force behind the success of the Brand.
Gorgeous and very high quality watches. Innovation at its highest. Big fan of the brand. Any thoughts on why they do not retain value in the aftermarket?
I like seeing watch brands doing their own thing, I think they make some incredible watches although some are not my taste. I do own one of their watches, a black dial mechanical chronograph, AC11 I think?
Going to an interview request also a dressing etiquette ! Going to a gentleman’s house and wearing like a teenager with sport shoes, jeans and ridiculous shirt!
To me Jacob & Co focus too much on their gimmick watches. What tf was that Tyson Fury watch they just released!? You can tell the new designs are influenced by these guys who have a marketing backgrounds and no design/watchmaking experience. Huge mistake in the long term with these cringe Bugatti and Godfather collections etc.
Something important in the jewelry and watch industry is defining a niche. Jacob and Co aren’t going to out prestige patek nor out brand Rolex, so they chose to take a more creative art approach.
"Since I joined in 2020 we were able to triple the business" LOL you mean during the hottest watch market we've ever seen?? Seems like a good kid but talk about trying to justify your position in a company that was handed to you... Seems like a nice kid though!
Walk around his crib art was more interesting than seeing gaudy, tacky overpriced baubles, 4 peps wiv 2 much money & 0 sense... What did Mr Humbleson learn in the business, erm Covid & daddies money, ideas & company...

Jacob's son is a splitting image of his Dad!
Great interview Roman! Was a pleasure to watch 🔥🔥
The time pieces are works of art , love them

Oh wow such hard work and dedication to inherit a business..
Great interview, love this content.
Time is precious,Don’t tarnish it with the word money.
Yes ⏰️
Agreed. But birds of a feather stick together.
My father still wears his 5 time zone MOP dial diamond factory bezel. He’s giving to me I can never sell. He’s worn it 20 yrs
All you need is a race car helmet!!!!!😂❤😊😅
Love this type of video! Very insightful about the watch world and its business aspects. Also, I think we need an "MTV Cribs" type of video.🤔
Nice interview. Content is now about the “art” of watches and not hype. 😊
GREAT episode!!!
Great content really enjoyed this thank you! 😊
Great video. Great to see who is there apart from Jacob. Future is looking strong for them.
Great interview 👌
I love their watches, too expensive for me but I appreciate them! I hate when people talk them down because they’re sheep following Nico!

I think he left the company around the same time his dad got sent to prison for money laundering and fraud (~2008). Then came back 10 years later.
Your company sounds condescending and shows Jealousy for the successful. Fix it.
@@tryingmann3458 No idea what this means or who you are replying to
Some people wear watches to let you know what time it is... Some people wear expensive watches to let you know how valuable there time is...
Uncle Shannon said it first

Illuminating
7:33 who is the portrait of the jewish guy in the background?ive seen a picture of him in traxnyc's office too?
He is Menachem Mendel Schneerson
Didn’t like this guy… until that last minute. I read him all wrong. Good guy.

"Who's the Jacob & Co. of the watch world? Bugatti?"
🤣
Jacob and Co is going to be the next big thing?
Wouldn't wear a Jacob & Co. For free nvm pay for one lol ... they were cool 20 years ago, not so much today.
But then again being a Ducati owner maybe a Panigale V4 watch?
lol cmon now... tourbillons do very little for your watch's accuracy unless your watch is just laying in 1 position.
Why is he trying to portray Jacob's the jeweler son as a rags to riches story?

Bro, you’re way too old to be wearing f1 jerseys everywhere. Especially during a planned interview
Let him be
He’s not that old and he can wear whatever he wants. WTF is wrong with you.
Ben is great.

He had to earn those keys bro. They weren't handed to him...
Puffy Daddy!
Unbelievable moving wrist art but not for me. AP skeleton!
Godfather watch is hideous 😅
Why is he calling his father by his name? He always does this. But ey man
And two time felon 😂
Hustler to ceo realy

First of all i don't care😅
These watches look so classless
Scam
His going to be the biggest downfall of the company
