Epic X Skeleton in titanium, introduced around 2016 and remaining a core part of the brand’s catalog, represents the manufacturer's shift toward architectural sports watches. Collectors focus on the JCAM02 caliber, a skeletonized manual-wind movement featuring a vertical alignment where the barrel and balance wheel are positioned on a single axis. The 44mm grade 5 titanium case utilizes an \"X\" shaped lug structure that integrates directly into the movement bridges, creating a transparent aesthetic with no traditional dial. On the secondary market, these references typically trade between $12,000 and $18,000 depending on condition and strap configuration. A notable production variant is the \"Racing\" edition, which incorporates perforated rubber straps and color-coded inner rings. While not a limited edition in its standard form, the labor-intensive finishing of the skeletonized bridges limits annual production volumes compared to mass-market luxury sport watches."}, "listing_stats": {"count": 0, "median": 0, "low": 0, "high": 0}, "listings": [], "auction_lots": [{"slug": "jacob-co-epic-x-chrono-messi-2019", "brand": "Jacob & Co", "reference": "Epic X Chrono Messi", "model": "Epic X Chrono Messi 'Only Watch' Special Edition", "case_material": "Titanium and White Gold", "hammer_usd": 82000, "year_sold": 2019, "venue": "Christie's Geneva", "lot_summary": "A unique piece dedicated to Lionel Messi, set with baguette-cut blue sapphires and sold with a meet-and-greet experience with the football legend.", "source_url": "https://www.christies.com/en/lot/lot-6233129", "provenance": "ai_generated_grounded", "url": "https://mostexpensivewatches.net/auctions/jacob-co-epic-x-chrono-messi-2019"}]}
