In 2022, Jacob & Co. partners with Comics powerhouse DC Comics to design an entirely new timepiece. Gotham City is a batman-themed watch that draws inspiration from Jacob Arabo's personal taste and preferences. He is a fan of the Batman, just like Benjamin Arabov, Jacob & Co.'s CEO. This timepiece is the result of deep individual involvement and a symbol of what Batman represents. In the mind of creator Bob Kane, vertical and dark Gotham City is a stand-in for New York City, whence Jacob & Co. was created and operates.
The Gotham City is destined for a Jacob & Co. audience that also relates to his secret identity : that of a playboy billionaire, nonchalant and gifted with extremely good taste. The duality of the comic's character invented by Bob Kane is furthered in the Gotham City. The Black DLC version of the Gotham City is edited as an 36-piece limited series.
