Titoni

Just discovered the brand reading a Fratello article (https://www.fratellowatches.com/titoni-airmaster-glacier-turquoise-review/?unapproved=866041&moderation-hash=620b054fa614a10ea33d979ed1557c5b#comment-866041)

another boutique Swiss brand I had never heard of but it seems our Dutch friends have reviewed quite of few models.

Cringey PVD coated Daydate homages, decent Longines Hydroconquest lookalikes only or is there something worth looking at here ?

@ChronoGuy gave us the backstory on Titoni a while back. WC is starting to have the accumulated watch knowledge that we normally associate with WUS.

Vintage Titoni is awesome...the Race King is a highly desirable 1970s chronograph and can still be found in a few places in very good condition but is quite pricey.

Here are a couple from my collection...

The new releases from Titoni go back to their Heritage references and updated models to reflect the more modern designs. Here's one of the Heritage chronographs they released...

They had some quirky models in the 1970s, but you have to be careful of the "Mumbai" specials. Here are a couple of the 1970s references I have/had in the collection...

The one I have been the most tempted to add is one of the new Seascoper 600 series...

Superior movement and specs to the Longines. Great watch, I have the stainless non PVD case.
