Winning a Triton Main Event has never been just about the money—it’s about prestige, skill, and the signature hardware awarded to champions. This week, Triton Poker confirmed that luxury jeweler Jacob & Co will return as the official timekeeping partner for the 2026 season, continuing their tradition of honoring winners with iconic timepieces.
A Decade of Triton and 40 Years of Jacob & Co
The timing of this partnership is symbolic. Triton celebrates 10 years since its inaugural 2016 event, evolving from a niche high-stakes experiment into a cornerstone of elite poker. Meanwhile, Jacob & Co marks its 40th anniversary, making the collaboration a milestone for both brands.
A spokesperson from Jacob & Co emphasized the shared values:
“The partnership with Triton Poker Series reflects a shared pursuit of excellence, precision, and performance at the highest level. From the intensity of tournament play to the mastery behind every Jacob & Co. timepiece, both worlds are driven by timing, strategy, and confidence.”
The Triton Epic X Skeleton: A True Champion’s Reward
The centerpiece of the collaboration remains the Triton Epic X Skeleton, a 44mm skeletonized watch with a rose gold dial and a personalized Triton logo at 12 o’clock. For champions, the real allure is the “CHAMPION” engraving on the case back—a badge of honor since the partnership’s debut in Madrid in 2022.
Some of the modern poker elite currently sporting the Epic X include:
-
Bryn Kenney, Stephen Chidwick, and Isaac Haxton
-
Jason Koon, a Triton Ambassador, with two watches in his collection
Since 2022, 22 Epic X timepieces have been awarded across No-Limit Hold’em, PLO, and Short Deck Main Events.
Triton 2026: Jeju Awaits
The 2026 season kicks off in Jeju, South Korea, from March 5 to April 1 at the Les A Casino. This stop promises to be the series’ largest yet, featuring 31 events across two main segments:
-
Triton ONE (March 5–15): Mid-stakes festival introducing the first-ever women-only events.
-
Super High Roller Series (March 15–April 1): Nosebleed stakes return, highlighted by the $100,000 NLH Main Event (March 24–26) and $100,000 PLO Main Event (March 29–31).
For champions, the Triton Epic X Skeleton isn’t just a watch—it’s a symbol of mastery, timing, and triumph on poker’s grandest stages.
