Felipe Pikullik is an independent German watchmaker born in Berlin in 1994, who developed a fascination with horology from a young age. His formal training began at the prestigious watchmaking school in Glashütte — the heart of German horology — where he studied from 2012 to 2014. He further refined his skills through professional experience at independent brands such as Kudoke and Rolf Lang, focusing on prototyping, manufacturing, fine finishing, and movement restoration. In 2017, at just 23 years old, Felipe established his own atelier in Berlin, launching with the Prius Collection — a series of five fully skeletonized timepieces with hand-engraved movements. Since then, the brand has evolved from a small workshop with minimal tools into a growing operation of 12 dedicated professionals, with an increasing focus on in-house complications and astronomical functions. The introduction of the Mondphase — featuring the first-ever 3D moon complication — and a nomination for the prestigious GPHG Award in 2024 mark Felipe Pikullik's rising presence among the most compelling voices in independent watchmaking today.
