A deeply personal creation, The World Is Yours Dual Time Zone is a homage to the timepiece that first ignited Jacob Arabo’s watchmaking journey. Inspired by a vintage double-time zone watch gifted to him by his father, this 43mm piece blends emotional heritage with high horology. Crafted in 18K rose gold, the rounded case is topped by a dramatically curved sapphire crystal that reflects the globe-inspired contours of the dial. The black lacquered surface features a detailed rendering of the western hemisphere with rose gold-finished continents and a compass rose at the centre, requiring the hands to be mounted at a 12° incline for clarity across the domed dial. Inside ticks the self-winding JCAA11 calibre, which independently drives both time zones down to the minute—ideal for regions with unconventional UTC offsets, such as India. A rose gold caseback engraved with a world map completes the concept. Fitted on a black alligator leather strap with a matching rose gold pin buckle, this watch is a poetic intersection of personal memory and global vision.

Jacob & Co. The World Is Yours Dual Time Zone
Heritage, Inspiration & Technical Excellence
Background & Inspiration
Founded by Jacob Arabo, Jacob & Co. draws inspiration from its founder’s personal journey and heritage. Born in the Soviet Union, Jacob immigrated to the United States during the 1970s. At the age of 13, he received a watch from his father, Nison Arabov, which sparked his lifelong passion for horology.
That watch was a rare and once-famous Wakmann timepiece featuring two independent time zones and a world map on its dial. Deeply influenced by this meaningful family heirloom, Jacob Arabo created the Jacob & Co. The World Is Yours Dual Time Zone as a heartfelt tribute to his roots, his father and the origins of his passion for watchmaking.
Design & Features
The World Is Yours Dual Time Zone reinterprets the original Wakmann watch through Jacob & Co.’s distinctive approach to luxury watchmaking and innovative design.
The dial features a finely detailed, laser-engraved representation of the Western Hemisphere, creating an impressive three-dimensional sky-view effect. Its intricate surface is produced using a specially developed, high-precision mould, highlighting the exceptional attention to detail.
Movement & Technical Specifications
At the heart of The World Is Yours Dual Time Zone is the Jacob & Co. calibre JCAA11, a manually wound movement developed specifically for this exceptional travel timepiece.
Inspired by the original Wakmann mechanism, the movement incorporates modern watchmaking refinements and a dual-time-zone complication that allows both time displays to be adjusted independently. A dedicated small-seconds counter completes the display.
The movement operates at a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour (4 Hz) and offers an approximate power reserve of 42 hours.
Its construction comprises 206 components, including 33 jewels, reflecting the technical engineering behind this distinctive complication.
Conclusion
The Jacob & Co. The World Is Yours Dual Time Zone is more than a luxury travel watch. It represents a deeply personal story of family, heritage and the enduring influence of a father’s gift. By combining the emotional significance of the original Wakmann timepiece with Jacob & Co.’s contemporary design language and mechanical expertise, the watch transforms a personal memory into an extraordinary expression of horological artistry.
