It is from ingenious and passionate mechanics that engines are born. Made of oil and gears, time and metal, they are the source of speed, which has always been man's technological delight. Meccaniche Veloci is the story of two souls living and pulsing together, enclosed in the same extraordinary timepiece.
An Italian, creative soul, stubbornly individualist, able to invent a case shaped like a piston.
A Swiss soul, who draws on Geneva's finest watchmaking traditions.
The result is a bold and unique, high-end collection [+], rigorously expressing the lack of respect for mainstream taste. It takes pride in breaking with conventional stylistic norms.
