Founded by Rexhep Rexhepi in 2012, AKRIVIA is a watch atelier based in Geneva, Switzerland. While young, the small team of watchmakers adhere to the strictest of traditional watchmaking methods. The name AKRIVIA derives from the Greek word for precision – the essence of timekeeping that defines the beauty and functionality of all watches.
“What’s amazing is the thought that we started from an idea, we started to draw it, we constructed it and we decorated it. We did all the tests that needed to be done and we started to assemble everything. And now, the ticking starts. It’s the birth of something extraordinary. We feel fulfilled. We took part in a creation that tells the time. We put in all the energy and worked month after month and at the end, there’s a release. All that work served a purpose.”
