A brand born from the passion of engines and speed in the design capital of Milan now produces high-end watches in Geneva

It started in Milan in 2006 with the presentation of a watch like no other, the QuattroValvole. Taking its name from the Italian expression for four valves per cylinder in an engine, the QuattroValvole has a design inspired by a piston shape and displays four different times simultaneously on its dial, all powered by an in-house self-winding mechanical movement.

Ten years later Meccaniche Veloci can be found at the heart of Switzerland’s luxury watchmaking district of Plan-les-Ouates in Geneva with an exhibition space set up in a former mechanical workshop.
