“Collecting artisanal independent watches is niche for a reason - because they are how the watchmakers want to express themselves.”
Four collectors share their experiences of collecting Rexhep Rexhepi watches. From Singapore to Sydney and hailing from different backgrounds, each have their own reasons for collecting artisanal independent watches, and what they perceive as the special appeal of such timekeepers.
From a young age, there was only one thing Rexhep Rexhepi wanted to do: make watches. By the time Rexhep Rexhepi founded his atelier, Akrivia, in 2012, he was already a watchmaker with a decade of experience. With the establishment of his own brand and atelier, Rexhep Rexhepi fulfills his dream of developing and building his own watches, with distinct design aesthetics that reflects his own contemporary style of classical watchmaking.
