Rexhep Rexhepi Chronomètre Contemporain I

About this reference

The Rexhep Rexhepi Chronomètre Contemporain I (RRCC1) in platinum was produced between 2018 and approximately 2021 as a limited edition of 25 pieces. Collectors value this reference as the debut release under Rexhep Rexhepi’s eponymous name, marking a shift from the Akrivia brand identity. The watch features the manual-wind Calibre RR01, which incorporates a symmetrical architecture, a hacking seconds mechanism, and a zero-reset function. The platinum variant is distinguished by its black grand feu enamel dial with white markings and a 38mm case featuring elongated, soldered lugs. Due to its low production volume and historical significance as the 2018 GPHG Men’s Watch prize winner, secondary market prices typically range from $600,000 to over $900,000. A notable auction result occurred at Phillips in 2023, where a platinum RRCC1 achieved a hammer price of approximately $920,000, reflecting its status as a foundational independent horology piece.
