Only Watch 2023

Rexhep Rexhepi’s watchmaking has always reflected his reverence for chronometry, particularly of the type embodied by the precision timepieces crafted in Geneva, his adopted home city. This philosophy is expressed in his signature creations, the Chronomètre Contemporain I (RRCC I) and Chronomètre Contemporain II (RRCC II). 

For Only Watch 2023, Rexhep Rexhepi remains true to his vision with the Chronomètre Antimagnétique. A wristwatch reflecting Rexhep Rexhepi’s creativity and skill, the Chronomètre Antimagnétique is a precision timekeeper featuring with a hand-finished movement protected from magnetism by a Faraday cage.

His unique creation is both a tribute to historical antimagnetic chronometers and a practical timekeeper designed for modern life, where electronic devices that generate powerful magnetic fields are omnipresent.

Importantly, the Chronomètre Antimagnétique is not simply a magnetismresistant version of the RRCC I or RRCC II. Instead, it is equipped with an all-new movement developed from scratch in the ATELIER AKRIVIA located in Geneva’s Old Town. Among the calibre’s notable features is the indirectly-driven central seconds hand with a zero-reset function.
