It's a mess of company. They made promises to customer and then welched on those promises....
High failure rates, slow service, using clients watches in for repair to shower other customers... The list goes on... All held up by auction hype.
The the values go in free fall as they should. These watches aren't worth it.

2 photos I reworked a bit. A pure marvel, this watch, I must say. Enjoy, Nicolas ...
Great Photos!
Is that N4?! Two friends of mine own both the older and younger sibling of this watch! N3 & N5 RG
Tremendous watch that never gets boring.
Here's a macro of the dial belonging to the prototype. Regards, Baruch ...
No, no. This isn't that at all. This is a very high failure rate, extremely show turn around AND using clients watches to show to other clients.
This is far from the norm and please don't paint good, honest independents with the same brush. Not all independents are the same.
Speaking truth
Knowing a bit of the history here is personal, it is prudent to hear these frank comments. I appreciate the insight, and hope all is well my friend Colton
I haven't seen you around in while! I hope you and the family are doing well!
We should grab lunch again sometime!
Always watching!
Kids growing fast, and life at the lake is hard to leave even when the city calls. Agreed lunch sounds good, I will send you a message the next time I have meetings downtown. I still need to try on that MB&F of yours! Hope your family and business is ...
As my watchmaker says, making a reliable movement is actually really hard.
He's a fan of vintage, time-tested movements as well as their modernized versions. He sees a lot of in-house movements in for repair. But hey, a really well finished bricked movement sure looks nice in pictures.
Not only not working
Mechanical watches will break at some point but I have heard the service is horrible where customers need to wait well over a year to get the watch back. Also a friend’s watch was used as a display model to allow other visitors to play with while it’s stu...
Exactly. I've lost so much respect for Akrivia and Rexhep specifically.
The broken promises are also terrible.
Happy RRCC owner
Just to throw it out there, I've been rocking my RRCC02 since June, practically every day, and trust me, it's running like a charm.
Thanks 🙏🏼
It appears I'm truly fortunate. With more than thirty years dedicated to watch collecting, my admiration for Rexhep stands unparalleled. It goes beyond mere hype; I am genuinely delighted to have, at last, discovered the master watchmaker who fulfills all...
This is a nice vintage inspired modern watch
That many times doesn’t work. I’m trying to understand the mania surrounding this watch and the very young maker that led to a million dollar auction result recently. I have to admit, at one point, I was also swept up by it to a degree. But now when I loo...
Also, No one came to tell their horrible repair stories
In order to protect their “asset values”
What a fascinating thread.
I had never heard anything but extreme praise for this watchmaker and his watches. Leave it to this Forum to give us the other side of the story.
