The Story Behind Santura

Watches have always fascinated me, not just as timepieces but as symbols of craftsmanship and personal style. I wanted a watch that felt refined yet versatile, something that stood out without being flashy. So I decided to create it myself.

After months of prototyping, refining details, and working closely with manufacturers, Santura Novus was born.

Now, I’m bringing Santura to Kickstarter to share this creation with people who appreciate craftsmanship as much as I do.
