       The movement took its name from Jacobus, the Renaissance Latin form of Iacomus, the original Latin form of James. Adherents rebelled against the British government on several occasions between 1688 and 1746.

        These watches were somewhat rare in the United States throughout the '90s but I was eventually able to find a Zenith link chronograph with a black dial. It cost me less than a vintage El Primero but more than a vintage El Primero-powered Movado Datron and it was a revelation in my collecting career. The quality was second to none the movement link was one of the best chronograph movements ever and the link 38mm size and low profile made it just perfect for me.
