Crafted in rose gold and adorned with diamonds, the watch is a tribute to the cinematic classic, featuring visual and symbolic elements from the film.
Its 49mm case is intricately designed, showcasing the essence of The Godfather.
The timepiece also plays the movie’s famous theme, adding a unique touch to its artistry.

Inside the Jacob & Co Opera Godfather watch
The Jacob & Co Opera Godfather watch is a masterpiece of horological engineering, with its hefty price tag justified by its intricate movement, unique functions, and meticulous craftsmanship, per Forbes.
Additionally, its affiliation with The Godfather movie adds a layer of exclusivity and cultural significance.
Jacob & Co. founder Jacob Arabo's connection to The Godfather runs deep—it was the first movie he watched upon arriving in the United States from Uzbekistan at the age of 14 in 1979.
In a nod to this iconic film, Jacob & Co. organised an exclusive event two years ago, inviting journalists and top clients to tour the movie's filming locations in Sicily.
The watch itself is a marvel, featuring Godfather elements such as a miniature sculpture of Don Vito Corleone, complete with a red rose in his lapel.
It also includes a musical mechanism that plays the movie's legendary theme song at the press of a button. Beyond its cinematic homage, the watch boasts a triple-axis tourbillon, with its rotating axes displaying different elements beneath the domed crystal.
