Romaine Jerome (RJ) desired to stand out from other watchmakers by combining what has been described as “luxury, rarity, and unattainability.” The 1912 sinking of the RMS "Titanic" is perhaps the world's most famous and deadliest shipwreck - forever memorialized in the 1997 blockbuster of the same name. Romaine Jerome purchased a salvaged piece of the Titanic's hull inspiring the line "Titanic DNA," combining history, decay, and time.
