JACOB JENSEN™ Icon

Release of JACOB JENSEN™ Icon Series

JACOB JENSEN™ is proud to introduce its new range of watches, the Icon Series. With its clean lines, sharp edges and black and silver contrasts the Icon Series features the brand’s legendary design signatures.

The choice for this series fell on the contrasts: polished and matt steel, a leather strap with a rubber inlaid, and a sapphire crystal lens. The dominant design feature is the harmonious and smooth transition from the watch case to the strap, and the characteristic cross that features on the dial, the crown and the clasp.
