Jacob & Co. Sher-e-Punjab Watch Priced At ₹35.88 Lakh Sported By Ranbir Kapoor At Ramayana Event Turns Heads

Bollywood actor Ranbir Kapoor has a thing for watches that make a statement, and his latest pick, a Jacob & Co. watch, as part of a Ramayana event, comes with a story of its own. At the Ramayana pre-release event in Hyderabad, the Jacob & Co. 'Sher-e-Punjab' watch, priced at ₹35.88 lakh, was seen on the wrist of Ranbir Kapoor. The timepiece puts Sikh heritage front and centre. With a skeletonised dial, vivid blue strap and motifs representing courage, faith and the oneness of the divine, this limited-edition Jacob & Co. watch goes beyond luxury watchmaking. Limited to just 50 pieces worldwide, it brings together bold design, cultural symbolism and collector appeal.

Jacob & Co. Sher-e-Punjab Watch: The Story Behind The Timepiece

Kapoor paired the royal-blue watch with a tailored navy-blue bandhgala at the Hyderabad event, letting the timepiece add a striking flash of colour to his otherwise understated look. The watch is part of Jacob & Co.'s Epic X collection, known for its architectural cases and openworked dials. What distinguishes the Jacob & Co. Sher-e-Punjab watch, however, is its tribute to Sikh history and identity. Its vertical bridges carry three prominent symbols: a roaring lion representing courage and strength, the Khanda associated with Sikh faith and spiritual sovereignty, and Ek Onkar, which represents the oneness of the divine. The words 'Sat Sri Akal' are engraved along the inner bezel. Rather than relying solely on precious materials or complicated mechanics to make a statement, the Sher-e-Punjab watch places symbolism at the centre of the design. 

Jacob & Co. Sher-e-Punjab Watch: Movement and Specifications

The Jacob & Co. Sher-e-Punjab watch features a 44mm sandblasted titanium case measuring 12.3mm thick. Titanium lends the case a contemporary, sporty character, while the openworked dial offers an unobstructed view of the mechanical movement. A sapphire crystal caseback provides another view of the watch's inner workings.

Powering the timepiece is the JCAM02 manual-winding skeleton movement, developed for Jacob & Co. by Concepto. It comprises 158 components and 21 jewels, operates at 28,800 vibrations per hour, and delivers a power reserve of 48 hours.

A vivid blue rubber strap with a honeycomb texture completes the design, secured by a titanium pin buckle. Put together, the watch gets a sporty edge without taking away from its elaborate detailing.

Jacob & Co. Sher-e-Punjab Watch Price in India And Availability

The Jacob & Co. Sher-e-Punjab watch price in India is ₹35,88,000 and is available exclusively through Ethos Watches, according to published listings. Limited to 50 pieces worldwide, it combines a distinctive mechanical design with a cultural tribute that sets it apart from more conventional luxury sports watches.

For Ranbir Kapoor, the royal-blue Jacob & Co. watch complemented his navy bandhgala. For collectors, its appeal lies in the combination of symbolism and the story it carries, visible mechanical architecture, and limited production.
