I got a chance to see the Kudoke 1 and 2 in person at the Watchbuys Roadshow in NYC back in the December. The Kudoke 2 was one of the main reasons why I went. Stunning watch.
Great vid Bill. These sure are works of art. I like the more traditional dress watch with the Kaliber 1 movement because I am a sucker for a hand wind movement. Even though the prices are more than I can afford they really are not as much as I would think that craftmanship of this caliber "no pun intended" would cost. Thanks again Bill for these nice 5 minute tidbits of great content. Brian.
Bill, so pleasantly surprised for your video about Kudoke. I was similarly drawn to the Kudoke 2 and now working on obtaining one later this year with a few personal touches. The watchmaker and his business partner/wife seem like lovely people. Keep the great videos coming!
Bill, I think the Kudoke 1 and Kudoke 2 use the Habring2 A11 with Kudoke enhancements and embellishments. The A11 is highly serviceable because it is modeled on one of the ETA movements that lapses into the public domain and for the further reason that Habring2 goes out of their way to make sure that their in-house movements can be serviced anywhere in the world where there is a competent watchmaker. The part of Kudoke’s watch output that still interest me are his skeltonized and elaborately decorated ETA movements which I call pictorials with the face of the watch essentially telling a story or at least a visual narrative. One reference is called Black Beauty and another is Oktopus. These are pretty amazing works of horological art and run from about $5500 to $10,000. I would be keen to own one. You can see them on the Watchbuys website or on Martin Pulli’s website. Cheers.
Absolute Watch Royalty! Mind blowing! Thank you so much for bringing into our world.

Thanks for bringing that to our attention!
Intriguing gentleman, thanx Bill! 👍🥃
I remain intrigued with Stefan Kudoke's watches. It will be interesting to see where he takes his brand in the future.

Wow! A hidden gem!

Have been close to get a Kudoke 1; will keep following their novelties in the future 😁
Hi Bill, Wish you a happy 2023 and good health. When you have time, can you talk about Krayon watches please?
Nice video mate !
May I say Okey Dokey Ku-DO-key ? The hands on the White Flower are beautiful and different.
Good video Bill.
How in the world are these watches not 3-5 times the price? Unbelievable
Awesome video, definitely lovely watches. Why didn’t you buy the kudoke 2? What about it didn’t you like?
Very artistic, but very germanic deign. I really like his watches definitely a name to look for in the future.
very nice watches..
7k for a handmade watch is a good price. Tempted, but aesthetically it is a bit coarse.
