Creating A Micro-Watch Brand w/ Akbar Sattar Founder of Lesablier Watches | Wrist Check Podcast #100
In this special episode of the Wrist Check Podcast, we sit down with Akbar, a passionate watch collector turned watchmaker, to discuss his journey from enthusiast to founder of his own watch brand, Lesablier. Akbar shares the personal story behind his love for timepieces, how his father’s Rolex Datejust sparked his fascination, and the challenges of launching a watch company. We dive into the details of Lesablier’s latest release, the Travel Graph world timer, featuring a striking aventurine dial.
Join us as we explore what it takes to go from collecting watches to designing and producing them, the inspiration behind his brand, and why he chose to highlight Washington, D.C., on his world timer instead of New York.
This episode also features a lively wrist check segment, discussions about vintage-inspired watchmaking, and insights into the craftsmanship behind Lesablier’s designs. If you've ever dreamed of creating your own watch brand, Akbar’s story is one you won’t want to miss.
