Hello,
only recently discovered this brand. It seems to have more history than most brands out there, yet it is almost unknown it seems.
The name is a bit whacky. Wish they would’ve opted for something more creative.

Looks like they don’t even say what movements are in their watches. Mostly quartz, a few automatic, swiss.
The vintage ones very much yes: they used the Jenny group’s Caribbean cases and have some of the best looking ones of all brands who sold 'em (Jenny, O&W, Aquadive, Droz, Philip Watch and a few more).
They also had a very nice chronograph in the 90s-00s (Teknodiver).
Current: no idea.
Looks like one of the million small watch companies that survived the quartz crisis in name only.
It used to be a traditional italian watch brand - and I’d bet that it went belly-up like 99% of watch beands during the quartz crisis.
Now the brand seems to be owned by an Italian jewwlery store chain, which is certainly better than many other brands only claiming to be Italian/European.
But it’s not a “traditional” watch brand.
Their history is borrowed from a previous existence.
Moratello Group acquired the company in 2006, with a focus on homage watches. Mainly quartz. $600 watches selling for $150-$250 in secondary markets.
Much like Gevril. Overpriced homage watches that don’t sell in department stores, only to be found later on Overstock.com and other clearance houses at massive markdowns.
