Russian engineering genius has conquered Switzerland! Konstantin Chaikin received the prestigious Audacity Prize at the Geneva Grand Prix of Watchmaking GPHG 2026 for the ultra-thin watch “The Riddle of the Thin King”.

A special moment of the ceremony — the Russian master delivered his victory speech in Russian.

Behind the award are years of engineering work, three patented solutions and a case of record thickness of only 1.65 mm.

For Chaikin this is already the second such victory: in 2018 he received an award for the famous “Clown”.

While some dictate fashion, others create technologies that the whole world admires 🔥
