In this episode of the Barrington Watch Winders podcast, we explore the remarkable journey of Jacob & Co., a brand that began in a modest room in Tashkent and rose to global acclaim. It all started with a simple watch — a gift from father to son that sparked a lifelong passion. After immigrating to New York, Jacob Arabo transformed from a teenage apprentice to the iconic “Jacob the Jeweller.” His bold, boundary-pushing designs redefined modern watchmaking, starting with the famed Five Time Zone watch. Now led by his son Benjamin, the brand blends innovation with legacy. This is a story of family, ambition, and the belief that time can carry dreams across continents.
