Most world time watches communicate multiple time zones through rotating discs or city rings. The Jacob & Co. Epic SF24 takes a completely different approach. Inspired by the split flap departure boards once found in international airports and railway terminals, the collection transforms world time into an animated mechanical display that changes instantly as new cities appear inside the aperture. The result is a complication that is both technically sophisticated and instantly recognizable, blending travel inspired functionality with contemporary luxury watchmaking.

Rather than focusing solely on traditional complications, the Epic SF24 demonstrates Jacob & Co.’s ability to reinterpret everyday mechanical systems through haute horlogerie. The collection combines an automatic Swiss movement with a patented split flap mechanism that displays twenty four global cities while maintaining local time through an elegant analogue dial. Distinctive case architecture, modern materials and meticulous finishing create a timepiece that appeals to collectors seeking mechanical originality without sacrificing everyday practicality. For international travellers and enthusiasts alike, the Epic SF24 represents one of the most inventive interpretations of world time in contemporary watchmaking.
