About Carlos Simon Ramirez
I build brands that blend story, design, and precision.As founder of MEC Watches, I’m redefining American watchmaking with Art Deco elegance, Swiss-level craftsmanship, and a uniquely personal collector experience. MEC isn’t just about watches — it’s about restoring meaning to ownership in an industry that’s lost touch with its soul.I’m also the creator of Cuerpo Celeste, a boutique wine brand crafted in Argentina and inspired by the planets of our solar system. Our wines are bold, expressive, and designed for global recognition.Beyond watches and wine, I’ve led high-end real estate renovations, collaborated with iconic maisons like Cartier and FPJOURNE, and launched provocative fashion concepts — always guided by a taste for timeless design and smart strategy.Currently: • Leading MEC’s next product roadmap • Finalizing a $5M capital raise to scale MEC • Expanding Cuerpo Celeste into Asia & the U.S. • Developing a Brooklyn property with strong IRR potentialLet’s connect if you’re into craftsmanship, storytelling, or building things that matter.
