David Rutten Jumping Hour Watch Overview

Key Points from the Discussion

• The brand David Rutten has been renamed Ukrony, with Malik Bahri assuming leadership. Production of the Streamline in meteorite will cease, replaced by a limited batch of 12 Bronze Streamline pieces utilizing remaining calibers, priced around 10,000 CHF. The company is also developing a new rattrapante complication.
• Meteorite, specifically Muonionalusta, is a highly sensitive material prone to rust. Significant advancements have been made in the production process for the final batch of 14 Streamline watches to create a 'rust-proof' meteorite case through improved treatment and plating techniques.
• The author experienced a lengthy process for their own David Rutten watch, involving FedEx pickup, extensive lab testing, treatment, plating, and repolishing to address material issues.
• The David Rutten pieces are noted for their strong, creative design, with the meteorite case material and subtle markings contributing to an 'out of this world' aesthetic.
