Salman Khan and Jacob & Co. came together to conceptualize a timepiece! A tribute to Salim Khan. Jacob & Co., the globally renowned high jewelry, high watchmaking brand, proudly presents a limited edition in The World Is Yours Dual Time Zone collection, created in collaboration with superstar, philanthropist, icon of Indian cinema and friend of the brand, Salman Khan. The World Is Yours Dual Time Zone Salman Khan is an exclusive timepiece is a tribute to heritage, family bonds, and the spirit of global connection.
A Deep Friendship and Shared Father-Son Story
Salman Khan and Jacob & Co. Founder and Chairman Jacob Arabo have been great friends, with Khan regularly seen wearing Jacob & Co. timepieces such as the Bugatti Chiron Tourbillon. Their bond deepened when Khan learned that The World Is Yours Dual Time Zone was inspired by a watch Jacob’s father gifted him as a symbol of time’s significance and the importance of realizing your unlimited potential. Drawing inspiration from the shared story, the two visionaries came together to conceptualize a timepiece that would honor Khan’s own father, legendary Indian cinema writer Salim Khan.
A Unique Movement For Global Travelers
In addition to featuring a domed, three-dimensional dial that resembles a globe, The World Is Yours Dual Time Zone is uniquely engineered for global travelers, featuring an independently adjustable dual time zone complication—a rarity in fine watchmaking. Unlike traditional dual-time watches, this innovation allows for fully independent hour and minute setting, making it especially useful for time zones with non-standard differences, such as India’s GMT +5:30 offset.
The individually-numbered, limited edition timepiece features design elements that pay homage to India’s rich heritage. The saffron and green accents are inspired by the vibrant colors of the Indian flag, while the laser-engraved world map and “Salman Khan” inscription on the case back signify his global influence and status as a style icon. The actor’s initials “S.K.” also appear on the lower dial in the 6’o clock position. The special edition timepiece features a custom box from Jacob & Co. rendered in Salman Khan’s favorite shade of turquoise, mirroring his iconic turquoise bracelet, a piece he never goes without.
Honoring Bonds and Heritage
Salman Khan expressed his excitement and personal connection to the piece: “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.”
