Traveling the world is a lifestyle and a sophisticated experience. Epic SF24 is a luxurious tool serving the needs of those always between planes, with a unique sense of style. Epic SF24 is named after its signature dual time zone indication. SF stands for Split Flap, the large display boards that used to hang in train stations and airports. Epic SF24 is also born from frustration. Many GMT timepieces tend to look alike and to offer low functionality. It's part of Jacob & Co.'s core identity to go where others never dared to. Epic SF24 is a traveler's watch that looks and reads like no other. Asymmetry is a delicate design tool that Jacob & Co. uses in a highly functional manner. Epic SF 24's second time zone sits in an extension of the case. Inside a wide sapphire tube, it offers optimal visibility and reading comfort. Advanced functionality creating unique aesthetics is the textbook definition of good design.

From a creative concept to design inspiration. To the first stroke of a pencil through hundreds of iterations. A timepiece like no other comes to life. Epic SF24 is a traveler's watch where functionality and aesthetics merge in a unique manner.

As second time zone watches are notoriously hard to read, Jacob & Co. decided to offer the widest, clearest most prominent display imaginable with Epic SF24. The split-flap display is both a unique solution and the one offering the best readability. Once ubiquitous in train stations and airports, it relies on flipping printed blades in a precisely defined sequence. They pack a lot of written information in a tight space. This information is two-fold. One set of flaps is printed with the 24 reference cities of the main 24 time zones on earth. The other bears the 24 digits that tell time. Read together, they deliver clear, immediate information to anyone working across two distant areas. The Epic SF24 split-flap display module is unlike any other. It's not located on top of the base movement. It's a lateral and vertical extension. The sophisticated connection between the two is an exclusive Jacob & Co. development. It neatly separates two functional areas, while linking them mechanically through a special wheel, visible in an opening on the dial.

Exclusive self-winding caliber. Second time zone with city indication. Airport-style split-flap display. Quick timezone change. 478 components. 48-hour power reserve.
