The exhibition “Voutilainen, The Art of Watchmaking” marks the first museum exhibition dedicated to the life’s work of the world-renowned grandmaster, Kari Voutilainen. The exhibition showcases unique watches crafted by Voutilainen, as well as sketches, photographs, and videos related to his work. Voutilainen is recognized as one of the most significant watchmakers of our time, a pioneer timekeeper.

His desire to learn more grew, leading him to Switzerland. Voutilainen’s expertise is highly esteemed worldwide. He has won ten of the most prestigious category awards in the watchmaking industry at the Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève (GPHG).
