Alright, let’s talk about this Rexhep Rexhepi fella and his watches. I ain’t no expert, mind you, just tellin’ it like I see it. Folks say he’s a young whippersnapper, only in his thirties, but he makes some fancy-schmancy watches. Heard tell he’s from Kosovo, ended up in Geneva makin’ watches. Now that’s a long way from home, I tell ya.

This Rexhep guy, he’s got his own company, Akrivia they call it. Don’t ask me what that means, sounds like somethin’ foreign to me. Anyways, they ain’t makin’ a whole heap of watches, maybe thirty or forty a year, they say. That’s not much, is it? But I guess that’s why they’re so darn expensive. People are goin’ crazy for ’em, payin’ a whole lot of money. I heard one sold for almost a million dollars! Can you believe that? A million dollars for somethin’ that just tells you the time! Back in my day, you could buy a whole farm for that much money.
They say he’s real good at makin’ the watches look pretty, all polished and shiny. They call it “finishing” I think. It’s like when you polish your silverware, I guess, only a whole lot fancier. He’s got a small team, maybe nine or ten folks workin’ with him. That ain’t a lot of people, considerin’ how much those watches cost. I reckon they must be workin’ real hard.
This Rexhep, he’s become a real big deal in the watch world, especially in the last few years. Folks are callin’ him a star, can you imagine? A star for makin’ watches! Well, I guess if people are willin’ to pay that much money, he must be doin’ somethin’ right. He’s walkin’ around Geneva like he owns the place, struttin’ down them cobblestone streets. Good for him, I say. He’s made somethin’ of himself, that’s for sure.
- He’s young, but he knows his stuff about watches.
- He came from Kosovo and now he’s makin’ watches in Geneva.
- His company is called Akrivia, and they don’t make many watches.
- Those watches are real expensive, sellin’ for a whole lot of money.
- He’s real good at makin’ the watches look nice and shiny.
I ain’t gonna lie, I don’t understand why folks pay so much for these things. To me, a watch is just a watch. But I guess there’s people out there who appreciate the craftsmanship, the work that goes into it. And this Rexhep fellow, he’s puttin’ in the work, that’s for sure. He’s makin’ a name for himself, and he’s makin’ some pretty fancy watches.
So, if you got a whole heap of money and you want a fancy watch, I guess you could go buy one of these Rexhep Rexhepi watches. But me? I’ll stick with my old Timex. It tells the time just fine, and it didn’t cost me an arm and a leg. But hey, to each their own, right? If folks wanna spend their money on fancy watches, that’s their business. I ain’t gonna judge. I’m just tellin’ you what I heard about this Rexhep fella and his watches.

And let me tell you somethin’ else. This watch business, it’s a whole different world. They got their own language, their own rules. They talk about “movements” and “complications” and all sorts of things I don’t understand. But I guess that’s what makes these watches so special, so expensive. It’s not just about tellin’ the time, it’s about the artistry, the craftsmanship. And this Rexhep guy, he’s got that artistry, that craftsmanship. He’s a real talent, even if I don’t quite understand it all.
So, there you have it. That’s the story of Rexhep Rexhepi and his watches, as best as I can tell it. He’s a young fella from Kosovo who made it big in the watch world. He makes fancy watches that cost a whole lot of money. And folks seem to love ’em. Me? I’ll stick with my Timex. But hey, maybe one day I’ll win the lottery and I’ll buy myself a Rexhep Rexhepi watch. You never know, right?
But until then, I’ll just keep tellin’ time the old-fashioned way. And I’ll keep watchin’ these fancy watchmakers from afar, shakin’ my head at the prices they charge. But hey, that’s the world we live in. Some folks got money to burn, and some folks got the talent to make things worth burnin’ money on. And this Rexhep fellow, he seems to have found a way to do both.
