The Watch: Since March 2005, Stefan Kudoke has worked as an independent watchmaker under his namesake brand, KUDOKE. They currently produce about 200 watches per year.
In 2018, Kudoke debuted an in-house movement, Kaliber 1, based on the architecture of the Habring Felix. This was used in the Kudoke 1 and Kudoke 2, released with AHCI at Baselworld in 2019. The Kudoke 2 took the “Petite Aiguille” Prize for watches priced between CHF 4,000 and 10,000 at the Grand Prix d'Horlogerie de Genève in November, 2019, his first win.
This is the follow-up, the Kudoke 3, a combination of English pocketwatch aesthetics (for the upper half of the dial) and German watchmaking (see the movement’s 3/4’s plate and engraved balance bridge with a triple-scale that calls to mind the distinctive seconds register of the 1990’s Daniel Roth (see: the Athys. Also please sell me one).
This example comes full set, in near mint condition, and is dated 2023.
