Step into the shadowy world ofĀ The GodfatherĀ with Jacob & Co.’s Opera Godfather Baguette—a $1.2 million timepiece that’s way more than 1,100 diamonds dripping from an 18K rose-gold case. The Opera Godfather is powered by its exclusive, 658-component JCFM04 movement, a caliber of absolutely peerless construction, and an unmatched capacity to amaze and entertain.

This beast updates the 2022 50th Anniversary edition with invisible-set 447 baguette-cut whites (28.68 carats) on the case and 666 brilliant cuts (1.85 carats) spinning on the music-box cylinders.

Push the 10 o’clock pusher, and the magic erupts: the entire counterclockwise-rotating assembly—triple-axis tourbillon, haunting 30-second theme tune from Nino Rota’s score, a tiny Don Corleone figurine channeling Marlon Brando’s icy glare, and the off-center hour-minute dial—whirls as one lethal unit.

Born from an official Paramount Pictures partnership, it’s the ultimate tribute to the 1972 mafia epic. Offer your wrist to the Don

For the Opera Godfather, Jacob and Co. has partnered with Paramount Pictures to use the film’s iconic theme music. This is the first time Paramount has partnered with a watch company in this way, and it was a challenge to secure the rights. Once the deal was done, however, Paramount agreed to license the music, The Godfather logo, and the brand, and is now in negotiations for other iconic movie scores for future projects.

CaratLane – A TATA Product, recently unveiled 2 new collections just in time for the auspicious occasion of Akshaya Tritiya: Kaashika & Leher — each rooted in different inspirations but unified by CaratLane’s signature contemporary design language. The collections were seen flaunted by Yami Gautam Dhar, the face of CaratLane, across various brand visuals.

The collection, Kaashika, is inspired by the ancient city of ā€˜Kaashi’, now known as Varanasi. Each design beautifully depicts the artisanal architecture of the city, its brilliance, and its famous temples in all their grandeur. The motifs and textures in 14KT gold and natural diamonds reinterpret the city’s rich heritage through a modern lens — making the jewellery truly wearable art.

Leher, inspired by waves, is beautifully brought to life with real diamonds and blue topaz set in 14KT gold. The designs showcase marvelous craftsmanship through their modern take on oceanic rhythms, expressed through soft curves and layered forms. Each piece is crafted to feel versatile and effortless, making it ideal for everyday elegance while still holding a very distinct design identity.

Speaking on the launch, Saumen Bhaumik, MD – CaratLane, remarked,

ā€œWith Kaashika, we set out to celebrate the richness of Indian heritage, drawing inspiration from the architectural grandeur and legacy of Kaashi. In contrast, Leher explores fluidity and movement, inspired by the ever-changing rhythm of waves, resulting in designs that feel light, modern, and expressive. Launched during the auspicious period of Akshaya Tritiya, both collections reflect our continued approach to contemporisation — reimagining traditional inspirations into jewellery that is relevant, versatile, and effortlessly wearable for today’s consumer.ā€

Currently, customers can avail a special festive offer of flat 50% off on making charges, along with an additional flat 15% off on diamond prices across all diamond jewellery designs. Curated especially for the auspicious occasion of Akshaya Tritiya, the offer encourages customers to mark the occasion with timeless pieces that blend contemporary design with CaratLane’s signature craftsmanship. Customers can experience these stunning collections across CaratLane’s expansive network of 370 stores nationwide, offering an immersive and personalised shopping experience, or conveniently browse and shop online at www.caratlane.com, ensuring a seamless omnichannel journey just in time for the festive celebrations.
