Akrivia Akrivia Tourbillon
Collection profile
A concise umbrella for Akrivia’s early tourbillon-led creations, spanning the AK-01 through AK-05 era and showing Rexhep Rexhepi’s progression from overt complications to increasingly refined, symmetry-driven horological expression.
Why it matters
Before the Chronomètre Contemporain reframed public perception of the maker, Akrivia’s identity was built on tourbillon watches that mixed youthful ambition with old-school hand finishing. This family documents the atelier’s formative design language and technical evolution.

More from Akrivia
- AK-06 Chronomètre
— Akrivia’s AK-06 is the atelier’s pivotal non-tourbillon collection: a dial-free, chronometry-focused wristwatch that showcases its movement architecture on the front, pairs a 100-hour hand-wound calibre with zero-reset seconds, and marks a key transition from the brand’s early tourbillon-heavy identity toward pure timekeeping and movement symmetry. - Chronomètre Contemporain — Rexhep Rexhepi’s defining classical chronometer line, introduced in 2018 as a more restrained, round-cased expression of the atelier’s values and later extended by the dead-beat-seconds Chronomètre Contemporain II.
- AK-09 Répétition Minutes — Minute repeater demonstrating mastery of acoustic complications alongside Rexhepi's signature finishing.
