Meccaniche Veloci – Swiss Made, Italian roots
Meccaniche Veloci has certainly made a name for itself in the watch world. The design of the unique Meccaniche Veloci Quattro Valvole watches, inspired by the design of cylinder heads of sports cars, turn one dial into four and use materials like titanium and colours like black that Meccaniche Veloci has transported from the world of the automobile to its luxury Meccaniche Veloci watches for men.
Meccaniche Veloci prides itself on the watch passport that is issued with every Meccaniche Veloci luxury watch in its collection, confirming that every Meccaniche Veloci watch component is made in Switzerland, even the black leather watch strap. The brand also uses its own in-house Meccaniche Veloci automatic watch movements.
The Meccaniche Veloci Quattro Valvole watch design originally consisted of four separate automatic watch movements to show four different time zones and simultaneously display the time in four different locations. Although these Meccaniche Veloci watches now use the Meccaniche Veloci automatic watch movement, the signature Meccaniche Veloci design has been kept, with the four subdials now used for a number of different designs, including Meccaniche Veloci tourbillon watches for men.
The use of gold and natural titanium for the watch case, combined with high-tech materials such as texalium and carbon fibre for the watch dial and specialist PVD and DLC coatings, make the Meccaniche Veloci Quattro Valvolve watch a unique luxury sports watch for men. The Meccaniche Veloci Quattro Valvole watch has evolved from the original Meccaniche Veloci Icon watches for men, which house four individual hour and minute dials for the time.
Mecchaniche Veloci also offers a bespoke atelier service that allows customers to customise their Meccaniche Veloci watch to their own tastes, choosing from different materials for the watch case and watch strap and different configurations for the dial of the watches.
