Arkonik takes old school Land Rover Defenders and restores them to their former glory. REC Watches makes show-stopping timepieces with salvaged automotive history. A collaboration between the two brands is a no-brainer, but the end result–the RNR Arkonik watch built from the 1984 Arkonik Land Rover 110 named UJO–is even more impressive than the pedigree would lead you to believe. Metal dial cut from the right door of UJO. Swiss-made Sellita automatic movement. Sapphire glass. Stainless steel case. Silver, black and blue contrasting details. It’s a fantastic looking timepiece with clear yet subtle automotive references.
