Jacob & CO rep

I would like to know too... I searched around a bit, but I didn't find anything except some cheapie Astronomia on Aliexpress or similar, which are toys that scream rep from a mile away. I'd love to find a nice Epic X, but I don't think there is one (at least a good one) at the moment
I don't know, I wouldn't want to sport a watch of a brand that on average a time piece of costs more than 3 times worth of my life earnings. That's why I don't fancy RM, besides not liking their case design (yes, not 'designs' 
), but even RM isn't as nuts in their pricing as J&C is nowadays, if I'm not mistaken.
But if that's your thing, have at it... Sure. Why not?
But I have never seen or heard of a rep of Jacob&Co. though. I think their creations from the aesthetical standpoint cater mainly to the taste of Western rappers, Russian oligarchs and generally Western nouvo riché social media douchenozzles living in Dubai, less to the high-roller business people from HK, Singapore and Shanghai, which are the markets dictating rep production because the rep factories mainly follow the tastes of gen buyers in that region of Asia.
That could be the reason for the lack of reps from J&C. Plus, not to forget, the crazy complications those brands like J&C use which are certainly not easy, if not actually impossible to replicate.

It depends on what you are looking for. J&c makes some crazy watches with insane prices, but there are also models that cost less than an average Omega.I don't know, I wouldn't want to sport a watch of a brand that on average a time piece of costs more than 3 times worth of my life earnings.

However I agree with you. The model that I have named for me, is worth like a Daytona more or less. I don't know what the op is looking for, but if he likes to have a watch that costs a million dollars, that's his choice, and if he's happy I'm happy for him
Yeah, that's true. They do have less expensive ones. But I think their latest creations have extremely increased their average pricing. That's why I said 'average'.It depends on what you are looking for. J&c makes some crazy watches with insane prices, but there are also models that cost less than an average Omega.
