The Astronomia is the epitome of 21st-century "haute horlogerie" and a globally recognized symbol of Jacob & Co watchmaking expertise.

The Astronomia Sky introduces new complications of celestial inspiration to Astronomia: a sidereal display, vertical month display, zodiac signs, day and night indication, as well as a celestial panorama orbital second indication, and a Jacob-Cut® diamond Moon have all been added to transform the iconic Astronomia fully. The Astronomia Sky is a poetic and singular entity in ultra-high-end watchmaking full of unparalleled watchmaking solutions and adorned with exceptional finishing techniques.

The Astronomia Sky stays true to the original layout of the Astronomia's iconic caliber construction: the entire four-arm assembly of its Exclusive JCAM11 Caliber rotates, a truly unprecedented engineering and watchmaking achievement that is as spectacular as challenging it is to realize.

The Astronomia Sky's four arms carry the gravitational triple-axis tourbillon that is the timekeeping organ of the watch, the orbital, double-axis, vertical seconds indication, an exclusive Jacob-Cut® 1-carat diamond, and a differential-leveled time display.

Each pair of opposing arms are perfectly calculated counterweights of one another - a testament to peerless materials engineering and watch movement design.
