Salman Khan Collaborates with Jacob & Co. to Launch Limited Edition Watch Worth ₹61 Lakhs
In a dazzling fusion of luxury, heritage, and global influence, Bollywood superstar Salman Khan has teamed up with renowned luxury watchmaker Jacob & Co. to unveil a limited edition timepiece that’s already making waves in the horology world. Priced at a stunning ₹61 lakhs, this masterpiece is part of The World Is Yours Dual Time Zone collection and represents a blend of craftsmanship, emotional legacy, and cultural pride.
A Tribute to Family, Legacy, and Global Connection
The World Is Yours Dual Time Zone Salman Khan edition is more than just a watch—it’s a deeply personal tribute. The timepiece is inspired by a heartwarming story: Jacob Arabo, founder of Jacob & Co., was gifted a watch by his father as a reminder of the importance of time and the limitless potential of the future. Moved by this, Salman Khan envisioned creating a watch to honor his own father, the iconic Indian screenwriter Salim Khan.
This emotional connection gave birth to a timepiece that celebrates family bonds, heritage, and the spirit of global unity—an ethos deeply shared by both Khan and Jacob.
A Deep-Rooted Friendship Behind the Design
Salman Khan and Jacob Arabo share more than a professional partnership—they are long-time friends. Over the years, Khan has often been seen wearing luxury Jacob & Co. watches, including the highly coveted Bugatti Chiron Tourbillon. Their shared admiration for family, culture, and timeless design laid the perfect foundation for this groundbreaking collaboration.
Cutting-Edge Innovation for Global Travelers
One of the standout features of this limited edition luxury watch is its independently adjustable dual time zone complication—a rarity even in the world of high-end horology. Unlike conventional dual time zone watches, this feature allows users to set both the hour and minute hands separately, making it highly practical for countries like India (GMT +5:30), where time differences are not in whole-hour increments.
Additionally, the domed, three-dimensional dial is designed to resemble a globe, making it the ideal companion for globetrotters and those with a global outlook.
Indian Heritage Meets Iconic Style
The design of the timepiece is a nod to India’s rich cultural heritage. With saffron and green accents inspired by the Indian flag, and a laser-engraved world map on the case back, the watch celebrates Salman Khan’s global persona while staying true to his roots.
Other unique features include:
-
The actor’s initials “S.K.” elegantly placed at the 6 o’clock position on the dial.
-
A “Salman Khan” engraving on the case back.
-
A custom-designed box in Salman’s favorite turquoise, reminiscent of his trademark turquoise bracelet.
Salman Khan on the Emotional Connection
Speaking about the collaboration, Salman Khan shared:
“Time connects us across generations. When I learned Jacob’s story, I knew I wanted to create a timepiece that honored my father’s role in my life. ‘The World Is Yours’ is more than a watch—it’s a symbol of family, legacy, and the moments that shape us.”
This timepiece is a manifestation of not just luxurious watchmaking, but also of personal storytelling, emotional depth, and cross-cultural respect.
Limited Edition With Global Appeal
Each piece in this exclusive collection is individually numbered, further enhancing its rarity and collectible value. With this release, Salman Khan joins the ranks of elite global personalities associated with Jacob & Co., reinforcing the brand’s commitment to merging technical mastery with emotional narratives.
A Watch That Transcends Time
In an age where most watches are defined by their specs, the World Is Yours Dual Time Zone Salman Khan Edition stands out by telling a story—a story of heritage, friendship, and ambition. With only a limited number available, this ₹61-lakh watch is expected to become a coveted collector’s item, symbolizing a timeless connection between Bollywood and luxury horology.
