Restrepo Watches, founded by Federico Restrepo and JinPing Restrepo, is a creative accessories brand that aims to redefine the world of timepieces. With their latest Automatic Watch Collection, they have taken inspiration from the elliptical shapes found in the universe and incorporated them into their designs.
What sets Restrepo Watches apart is their commitment to uniqueness and originality. As an art director and founder of several design groups, Federico Restrepo brings his creative vision to the world of watches. The collection features chronograph watches with Valjoux movements and automatic functionality. Made from stainless steel 316L and equipped with sapphire crystal, these timepieces are built to last.
The open back design allows for a glimpse into the intricate inner workings of the watch, while the three available finishings - steel, blue, and gold - offer options to suit different styles. With a water resistance of 5 ATM, these watches are suitable for everyday wear.
Restrepo Watches prides itself on using high-quality materials and genuine design. The dials are made with enamel, adding a touch of elegance to the timepieces. The straps, made from vulcanized rubber, provide both comfort and durability.
The Restrepo Watch project began in 2020, and after a year of dedicated work, they have produced a collection of five models. The designer's passion for watches and his desire to create something unique led to the birth of this collection.
One of the main challenges faced by Restrepo Watches was introducing a new shape and model that deviates from the established brands in the industry. However, the designer's deep appreciation for the history of timepieces and his commitment to innovation allowed him to overcome this challenge.
Restrepo Watches has been recognized for their outstanding design. In 2023, their Automatic Watch Collection was awarded the Iron A' Design Award in the A' Watch Design category. This prestigious award is given to well-designed, practical, and innovative creations that meet professional and industrial requirements. The collection was praised for its integration of industry best practices and competent technical characteristics.
Restrepo Watches is paving the way for a new era in watch design. With their unique approach and commitment to excellence, they are redefining timepieces and offering a fresh perspective to watch enthusiasts around the world.
