Luxury watchmaker Jacob & Co. has revealed its latest high-complication creation — the Opera Vantara Green Camo — a bespoke timepiece inspired by Anant Ambani’s wildlife conservation initiative, Vantara.
The newly unveiled watch merges maximalist design with symbolic storytelling, translating the ethos of wildlife preservation into haute horology.
Opera Vantara Green Camo: Design and Craftsmanship
The Opera Vantara Green Camo stands out with its large, intricately detailed dial. At its centre is a hand-painted 3D figurine of Anant Ambani, forming the visual focal point of the watch.
The figurine is dressed in a floral blue ensemble and surrounded by miniature sculptures of a lion and a Bengal tiger — powerful wildlife symbols that echo the conservation focus of Vantara. These detailed motifs add narrative depth, transforming the timepiece into a wearable tribute to fauna protection.
