The best Italian watches

Posted on 20 December 2022 at 3:13 PM

Italy is known for various beautiful products. Examples include Italian cuisine, clothing and sports cars. But of course the beautiful coasts and Italian class are also widely praised. In addition, Italy also offers high-quality watches in stylish and elegant designs. In this article we would like to tell you more about a few selected watches from two different Italian watch brands.

The Italian watch brand Locman offers high-quality watches with a sporty design. The quality of Locman watches is so well known that the brand has acquired special rights for the production of watches for the Italian army. The second brand of which we highlight two watches is the special Italian brand Meccaniche Veneziane. Meccaniche Veneziane is a brand that originated from the love for how the clock works. Characteristic of this brand is also the amount of professionals involved in each watch. Not only the watches and timepieces are made by the hands of a craftsman, but also the beautiful leather watch straps and even the special wooden watch boxes. This makes Meccaniche Veneziane unique on all fronts.

Meccaniche Veneziane Nereide watch

The first watch we discuss comes from the Locman brand. It is a watch with authentic Italian allure, namely the Locman Montecristo 41mm 0542A01S-00BKORSO. One of the characteristic aspects of the Locman brand is clearly reflected in this model. We are talking about the lively use of color, with which this model can also be called a real eye-catcher. The watch strap is made of rubber and comes in the striking color orange. The same color is also reflected in the accents on the black dial. This gives the watch a sporty and trendy look. The watch case of this watch is made of a combination of stainless steel and titanium. Furthermore, it is 14mm thick and the watch has a diameter of 41mm. The watch closes with a thorn clasp and is equipped with very strong sapphire glass. In terms of technology, this watch offers a quartz movement, luminous indicators, second hand and date display. In addition, this model has a nice chronograph function.

The second watch that we would like to explain in more detail is one from the Meccaniche Veneziane brand. It concerns the Meccaniche Veneziane Nereide 42mm Ref. 1202004, from the popular Nereide series. This watch is equipped with a beautiful handmade watch strap in the color black. The quality leather used for the watch straps comes from Tuscany and Veneto and is processed according to traditional methods. The lighter-colored stitching on the watch strap is a characteristic accent for Meccaniche Veneziane watches. The watch case of this watch is made of stainless steel and has a thickness of 14mm and a diameter of 42mm. The watch is also equipped with sapphire glass, so that damage will not be easily visible. The watch is also equipped with a rotating bezel, in a striking blue color. This stands out nicely against the black and calm-looking dial. This model closes with a regular buckle. 

For the Meccaniche Veneziane Nereide 42mm Ref. 1202004 uses a Swiss made automatic movement, also known as CAL.MV285. This provides a reliable basis. In addition, the watch is waterproof up to 200 meters and offers several nice extras. With this watch you have a second hand, date display and luminous indicators. Finally, the watch is equipped with a screw-down crown and C1 Swiss Superluminova that glows in the dark. In short, a very complete watch with all these specs.

The last watch that we would like to put in the spotlight also comes from the collection of Meccaniche Veneziane. We are talking about the Meccaniche Veneziane Nereide GMT Topazio Crema. This watch is also equipped with an exclusive leather watch strap, in this case in the color brown. The rotating bezel is also light brown in color. Together with the white dial, this gives the watch a very luxurious look. This model also has a thorn closure and sapphire glass. The watch case of the watch is made of stainless steel and has a thickness of 14 mm and a diameter of 42 mm. Here we again see a Swiss made automatic movement (CAL.MV297) that is beautifully finished with Côtes de Geneve. Finally, the Meccaniche Veneziane Nereide GMT Topazio Crema offers a very impressive list of extra functionalities. This model has a date display, second hand and luminous indicators. In addition, it is equipped with C1 Swiss Superluminova and a screw-down crown. As icing on the cake, this watch has a GMT function, so that 2 time zones can be set.
