Watch nerd with a passion for independent watch making and the values they stand for. It brings me back to a simpler time when things were made to last and craftsmen took pride in their creations.
對獨立製錶與充滿熱情的錶迷。獨立製錶引領我回到一個物品恆久流傳,而工匠以創作為傲的純粹年代。

I have a soft spot for independent watchmaking and Kari Voutilainen is undoubtedly one of the best of his generation. Owning a watch from Kari Voutilainen has always been a dream of mine since I had the pleasure of handling one in person. The ability to customize and personalize the watch makes it even more special. Meeting Kari in person and experiencing his passion for watchmaking convinced me to place the deposit for my first customized watch. This required a leap of faith and lots of patience since his manufacture only produces around 60 watches a year.
我向來獨鍾於獨立製錶,而毫無疑問地,Kari Voutilainen是這一代獨立製錶師中最優秀的人之一。自從有此榮幸接觸過一只Kari Voutilainen腕錶,擁有一只他的腕錶便成了我的夢想。他為每件作品刻畫出獨一無二的性格,讓這些腕錶變得更加特別。尤其是在與Kari見過面並親身感受他對製錶的熱情後,讓我決定向他購入我的第一只訂製錶。不過因為他的工坊年產量大約僅有60只,所以其實需要非常多的信心和耐心。
Kari Voutilainen Vingt-8 Piece Unique 鈦金屬/錶徑39mm/訂製款
Kari makes some of the best guilloche dials in the business and his enamel work is simply amazing. To top it off, this watch is just one of two bearing Kari’s signature on the dial, an idea conceptualized by a good friend (who coincidentally owns the second signed watch) and executed perfectly by Kari. I couldn’t be happier with the result. The rose gold movement is designed in-house with Kari’s proprietary direct impulse escapement, a perfect example of innovation while respecting tradition with his finishing techniques.
Kari製作的機刻花紋錶盤是業內水準最高,琺瑯工藝也令人讚嘆。而最重要的是,這款腕錶是面盤附有Kari簽名的兩款腕錶的其中一款,這個系列的概念其實是來自他的一位好友(而這位朋友恰好擁有另一款Kari簽名的手錶)並且由Kari完美執行。而我對最後的結果感到非常滿意。所搭載的自製機芯以玫瑰金打造,不僅採用Kari專有的衝擊式擒縱機構,完美展現製錶工藝的創新典範,同時更遵循傳統的修飾工藝。
The whole design and philosophy behind the Vingt-8 combines a respect for longevity with a never-ending quest for precision, the perfect watch to pass on to the next generation.
隱藏在Vingt-8背後的設計和理念,融合了對經典設計的尊重和對精確度的永恆追尋,是傳承給下一代的完美腕錶。
