Launched in the Gulf via watch department store Ahmed Seddiqi, Koroturk says “working with them allows us to benefit from their deep understanding of local collectors.”
The independent watchmaking brand, founded in 2017 by Axel Leuenberger, Jeremy Frelechox, Thierry Fischer and Koruturk, has made headlines for its complex complications and three-dimensional architecture. Its debut model, the Black Hole Tourbillon, boasted three-dimensional construction designed so the tourbillon appears as a “black hole” at the center of the dial.
In 2025, the brand launched its Black Hole with Arabic numerals.
