Here's the first sneak peek
In the small world of independent watch collectors, one name is increasingly catching the spotlight: Rexhep Rexhepi. The talented young watchmaker created Akrivia in 2012. His unique style, his precise technicality, coupled with his outstanding finishing, have earned him the comparison with some of the world's greatest master watchmakers like Philippe Dufour.
In the following weeks, Watchonista will show you where the magic happens. Rexhep Rexhepi will explain his vision of independent watchmaking and give us a behind the scenes look at how his creations are painstakingly realized by hand in the Atelier.
A journey of authenticity, craftsmanship, and love of fine independent watchmaking.
Stay tuned to discover more of Rexhep’s vision!
