The Goldstone dial, also known as aventurine glass, catches the light in a fascinating way and creates a sparkling interplay that catches the eye. Goldstone, a glass interspersed with fine copper particles, gives the dial a unique shine and a profound texture reminiscent of the mysteries of the universe.

However, the centerpiece of this extraordinary watch is the hand-guilloched movement bridge. The finest lines adorn the white rhodium-plated bridge and form a pattern that, starting from the frosted balance cock, is reminiscent of a shining star. Every detail, from the intricate lines to the complex patterns, is a tribute to traditional craftsmanship and reflects the dedication to perfection for which Kudoke is renowned.

The shape of the hands of the "KUDOKE ∞" also picks up on the theme of infinity. As with the existing models in the HANDwerk collection, the hands are designed in the shape of infinity signs, making the watch a truly harmonious work of art.
"The "KUDOKE ∞" is not just a timepiece, but a symbol of eternity and infinity. Each watch is unique and an expression of individuality and style," said founder and master watchmaker Stefan Kudoke. "This watch embodies the essence of Kudoke: aesthetics, craftsmanship and timeless elegance."

Stefan Kudoke
„More than 15 years ago, I said to my wife, 'I have a crazy idea: I will manufacture my own wat-ches!'“ At that time, Stefan Kudoke
was a student who already had finished his master-watchmaker's degree
and had worked at renowned brands like Glashütte Original, Breguet, and
Blancpain be-fore.
With the founding of his eponymous brand in 2008, Stefan pursued his dream full-time and made a name for himself as a creator of exceptionally artistic hand-skeletonized and hand-engraved timepieces among his KUNSTwerk collection. Of the emergence of his second collection, the HANDwerk line, Stefan explained, "After more than 10 years, I refined my skeletonizing skills to their utmost, and I found myself in a position where I wanted to develop my watchmaking skills further. To use old techniques and keep the practical know-how of traditional watchmaking alive has always been very important to me." And he brought this to fruition with the first two models of his new collection: KUDOKE 1 & 2.

To use old techniques and keep the practical know-how of traditional watchmaking alive has always been very important to me." And he brought this to fruition with the first two models of his new collection: KUDOKE 1 & 2.
With his first own movement, Stefan has fulfilled his dream.
Valuable lessons were drawn from the old masters, specifically those of
the German-English traditional handcraft of precision watchma-king.
"During the development of the Kaliber 1, I was inspired by the
design of historical English pocket watches whose use of forms I
incorporated into my movement. Ages ago I bought an old English pocket
watch movement that lay unused in a drawer for a long time. One day it
fell into my hands again, just as the idea of Kaliber 1 began to take
shape."
As with his skeleton models, Stefan Kudoke sets great value upon the refinement of the watch components by hand. Be it the polishing of edges at bridges or steel parts, the engravings or the surface treatment of the wheel bridge using a special grinding technology – all steps during the finishing process are carried out by hand exclusively. This is how handcrafted pieces of art are created - in small volumes and with great care and attention to detail.
