Mahesh's exclusive look at the AkriviA Chronomètre Contemporain 2 (CC2) prototype in rose gold offers WatchProSite readers a rare glimpse into the evolution of an independent horological masterpiece. His detailed observations, particularly on the case design and dial, provide invaluable insights into the subtle nuances that define Rexhep Rexhepi's craftsmanship. This article synthesizes community reactions, highlighting the watch's aesthetic appeal and the brand's distinctive design philosophy.
feels quite classic with the case size and the egg-shell enamel dial !
the lugs on photos seems to be long but in metal it is similar to early Patek design (obvious reasons)...it does wrap around the wrist well.
the JPH case is very well done, small details that can only be seen in metal.
example - the bezel is not exactly concentric but oval with longer face at 12 and 6 - mimics the AkriviA case design (it is much evident in the AK05)
For comparison...
classic CC2 or Ak05 - there are no wrong choices I think !
Best,

Key Points from the Discussion
- The rose gold CC2 with an eggshell enamel dial presents a classic and elegant aesthetic, contrasting with the more youthful platinum case with a black dial.
- The lugs, while appearing long in photographs, are designed to wrap well around the wrist, reminiscent of early Patek Philippe designs, enhancing wearability.
- A subtle but significant design detail is the oval bezel, which is not perfectly concentric but slightly elongated at 12 and 6 o'clock, mirroring AkriviA's signature case design seen more prominently in the AK-05.
- The JPH case exhibits exceptional finishing with small details that are only fully appreciated when viewed in person.
- The AkriviA CC2 is highly coveted among collectors, with its acquisition proving challenging due to its exclusivity and demand.
