"Jacob & Co. is no stranger to drama, but its latest creation might be its most cinematic yet. In collaboration with Costa Design Studio, the watchmaker has transformed its iconic Opera Godfather timepiece into a striking piece of functional art: The Godfather Sculpture Table. This $300,000 interior masterpiece is more than furniture - it's a celebration of horology, cinema, and design brought together in a singular, visionary statement."
"Standing at 135 x 80 x 76 cm and weighing an impressive 170 kg, the Godfather Sculpture Table is a feat of engineering and artistry. Composed of over 350 individually designed components, the table is hand-assembled into seven distinct substructures. Each piece uses premium materials - stainless steel, leather, aluminum, and glass - to create a presence that feels both mechanical and elegant."
"At the heart of the table is a fully functional Swiss and German mechanical movement with a 7-day power reserve - a nod to its watchmaking roots. It's not just a decorative flourish but a genuine horological mechanism, scaled up to anchor the piece in authenticity. As with the original timepiece, the table includes a pair of miniature music boxes that play the haunting Godfather theme when activated."

A fully functional Swiss and German mechanical movement with a seven-day power reserve provides genuine horological operation. Two miniature music boxes play Nino Rota's Godfather theme on activation, creating a synchronized multisensory experience for collectors and design enthusiasts.
