HOROLOGY Giuliano Mazzuoli Manometro Italia Rinuova is inspired by the motto that was created for Lorenzo the Magnificent after the Pazzi Conspiracy of 1478: ‘Le temps revient. ‘Time is renewed.’ Lorenzo, just like the evergreen laurel which grows even more luxuriantly after being pruned, would continue the Medici dynasty with even more vigour, restoring peace and prosperity. Hence the inspiration to reinterpret the Manometro Italia linking it to history and the concept of time that is continually renewed. The Italian flag that enriches the case is first engraved and then is enamelled one colour at a time by Giuliano’s skilful hands. The carrure of the watch is rectified evenly and then polished to create a decoration that is reliable and resistant. Made with care and dedication, this detail becomes a declaration of love by Giuliano to Italy.
