Stefan Kudoke brings a rebellious spirit to watchmaking, creating mechanical works of art in his Saxony atelier. As a pioneering independent German watchmaker, he made history by becoming the first to clinch a Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genéve in 2019, solidifying his legacy. This collection breaks new ground while pushing boundaries with a design that honors both brands.
