Few old watches
Hi all,
Recently I’ve acquired a few vintage watches from my father in law, who mentioned these were pretty old timepieces.
Just wondering if anyone can shed any light on them? Managed to find a few bits of information but can’t find anything that matches them exactly on google.
The Titoni for example looks very legit but the reference is 307-345, and the crystal seems to be acrylic.
All are mechanical/auto.
Thanks

Uncle Google tells me that Titoni is a Swiss company started in 1919. Their product is mostly sold in Asia, which would explain the other watches with it. I found a Cosmo King circa 1980 exactly like yours - with the addition of a day complication - for sale online for £800.

That’s what I’ve found too but sadly nothing exactly like mine. The gems are different colours and the date window is also square

Titoni is and always will be class!
Yes, Titoni is a very good Swiss brand, still independent, not part of the Swatch group. They had a lot of success in Asia, but for some reason still don't have any distribution in the UK and some other major territories. It's a brand probably ripe for an independent retailer, not already tied to the bigger players, to get in on.

Ive not seen one like that before with different coloured stones. The Cosmo line is still going, and still has a large variation of design details like that:

Most I know about #titoni that it's Swiss and had possibly a few other names it went under, but I'm not 100% certain of that.
