THE COMPLICATIONS & FEATURES
IofIIII
THE CHRONOGRAPH
The pusher at 2 o'clock starts and stops the timing function. This sequence can be activated at will, with no necessary end. Elapsed time is shown with the central seconds hand and the 30-minute register at 3 o'clock on the dial. Once the timing sequence is over, the 4 o'clock pusher resets all the hands. Epic X 47MM is ready for the next timing.

THE ROTATING INNER RING
The crown at 10 o'clock on the case side drives the inner ring of Epic X 47MM. The 60-minute timer is independent from the chronograph when read in coordination with the central minute hand. It can become a 60-second timer if read in coordination with the red chronograph hand. And it can be used as a countdown in both cases.

THE TRANSLUSCENT EPIC X DIAL
Transparency is a key design signature of all Epic X. The requirements of the chronograph prevented the extensive use of a transparent dial. A chronograph must be accurately read and therefore uncluttered. So this dial is tainted, color being part of Jacob & Co.'s core identity, and translucent. Some of the movement's key parts are visible, enhancing the uniqueness of Epic X 47MM.

THE SELF-WINDING MOVEMENT
A practical sports chronograph is a self-winding chronograph. Caliber JCAA05 is fitted with a rotor that automatically winds its power source. Its signature shape is directly inspired by the X that makes Epic X. It's visible to the naked eye thanks to a see-through caseback.
