This article delves into the specific features that make Stepan Sarpaneva's work stand out, from the heat-treated titanium dial to the rocket-inspired seconds hand, offering insights into the appeal of independent watchmaking.
Sharing my new acquired independent timepiece. Has been following Stepan's timepieces for a long time and so happy to have finally pulled the trigger. I am loving the watch. It has an out of the ordinary dial design, bespoke Sarpaneva's case and a very interesting movement sourced from Chronkde. Dial is made from titanium, heat treated to achieve different colors. And loving the hands of cource - look for example at the seconds hand modelled after a space rocket.
