About Arconel
Arconel is a so-called "Microbrand" for watches. Founded in 2026 and based in Ravensburg, Germany.
Our first model "Vectron" was presented to the public in June 2026 and will be available for purchase from Spring 2027.
The Journey
It all started after I proposed to my girlfriend.
I've worn many watches, but never any jewelry before. So I found it very interesting to see what kinds of wedding rings there are.
At some point I found a ring and thought "that's it".

As I and many of my friends liked that ring a lot, of course I thought that having a watch in the same style would be nice.
My journey of looking for a watch like this reminds me of the famous quote from Ferry Porsche
"In the beginning, I looked around and could not find quite the car I dreamed of, so I decided to build it myself"
Similar to Mr. Porsche, I decided to make my own watch because I couldn't find the watch I had in mind.
That was the starting point of Arconel.

A note from the Founder
My name is Julian Lange and I'm a Mechanical Engineer with 8 years experience working in product development.
My father works in the town where Junghans is located. He has been collecting Junghans watches for several decades.
That sparked my interest in watches from a young age and many years later led to founding my own brand Arconel.
