Unique Independent Watchmaker from Russia - Aleksandr Nesterenko Art Deko

[thesingularity7]

I spend an unhealthy amount of time looking at watches and seeking out new and obscure watch brands that almost nobody else knows about. That’s a key aspect of the watch journey for me, and it brings me a lot of joy. But even I wouldn’t have been able to find and purchase this watch, made by independent watchmaker Aleksandr Nesterenko, based in Saint Petersburg, Russia. My friend @watchsymmetry, on the other hand, is much more skilled than I am at discovering new and upcoming watchmakers, and this particular piece, the Art Deko, was loaned to me by him.

Aleksandr Nesterenko doesn’t even have a website; his only real online presence is his Instagram page, along with a few reviews from SJX Watches, The Limited Edition, and Watch Affinity. So whatever I say here is mostly paraphrased from those respective articles. These watches have a retail price of roughly $6,000 USD, although given their highly bespoke nature, I’m sure prices will vary based on the exact specifications you want.

Nice watch.
