 Over the years, Klaus Jacob carried with him his thoughts on the philosophy of both the company and product. German watchmaker Jacques Etoile watches has to offer for a narrow circle of connoisseurs. Jacob embodies this idea into practice with his usual tenacity. Many trips to Switzerland, but also just good luck, helped him to find parts - such as the mechanism of high-precision chronograph from a first-class manufacturer Valjoux. Their legendary gear with a column wheel calibers 23, 72 and 72C has already proved its success in luxury wristwatches from Audemars Piguet, Patek Philippe, Rolex and Vacheron Constantin. With the end of the production of these arrangements in 1974, the famous chronograph with precious stones sank into the past. It is clear that their limited edition reissue of the inscription on the face of Jacques Etoile and sonorous name "Silverstone" was warmly received by collectors chronographs and soon the whole series has been sold. Of course, also partly contributed to the spontaneous success is that well-coordinated team of father-son relationship was not satisfied with the quality standard final refinement. They dismantled the exquisite movements thoroughly redesigned components, and then raised it back up. Traditional skills of hand were, in fact, timeless values. These watches are not short-term product for today and tomorrow-quality models are able to resist the spirit of the time and still be desirable even in the distant future. Preservation of the traditions for the future is a key element of German company philosophy Jacques Etoile.
 Chronometric masterpieces such as mentioned above, no doubt, provide recognition. However, due to their limited number, the collection of the company can not be based only on them. Klaus Jacob had to rely on mechanical devices of modern producers, or those whose mechanisms are still available in large quantities. Previous arrangements can be found in ETA, the chief specialist of the major Swiss watch mechanisms. For example, the caliber of 2824 consists of a reliable rotor with automatic winding mechanism. Caliber 7750 time-tested extremely reliable automatic chronograph and the 6498 has a luxurious cruising range with manual assembly plant for two days. All mechanisms ETA always carefully finished, partly with a specific fine-tuning for business customers, for example, the complexity of swan's neck fine adjustment and classic balance. One of the key elements of the palette, the collection of Jacques Etoile is a non-automatic caliber Unitas 6376 (round), as well as extremely rare JE II, which is today, but based on old rules of construction.
Enclosures for sensitive inner life.
 The most beautiful watch movements do not make sense, if the exterior does not match the inner content. Jacques Etoile takes this into account when designing cases. A small factory SUG is responsible for the precise manufacturing of cases, although very strict instructions come from additional Lerraha. Without exception, Jacques Etoile watches are waterproof to 100 meters. Scratch-resistant and anti-reflective coating having a sapphire crystal protects the dial and hands. And not to hide stylish movement, bolted to the case rear cover has a window of sapphire glass. Production of the dial and hands no less carefully organized. These parts are traditionally produced in Lerrahe, largely by hand. The hands come from one of the most well-known Swiss manufacturers and are available in various designs. When designing the watches in the company of Jacques Etoile based on flexibility and impressive system for replacement housing, dial and hands, which offers freedom of choice in the design model. Steel casing can be easily replaced by gold, stepped bezel to change a flat. And if tastes have changed in the next few years, just send your watch to the company Jacques Etoile and tell about your needs.
