Officine Tecniche

Officine Tecniche is the watch brand that brings together Swiss mechanics and Italian design, guided by a simple principle: every choice must have a reason. Its watches are born from the Gargano — the spur of Italy, in Puglia — from the sea, the light and the character of a wild land that is not merely an inspiration, but a living part of how the brand thinks and builds. Design never comes before function: it arises from proportion, integration and necessity, and the collections carry the names of real places from that land.

On the mechanical side, Officine Tecniche selects its movements with care. The La Joux-Perret G100/G101 automatic movement — in its Top Grade Soigné Vis Bleues configuration — expresses the very best of La Chaux-de-Fonds micro-engineering: a 68-hour power reserve, blued screws, bridges decorated with Côtes de Genève and finishing of the highest order. As an alternative, the premium-series Miyota 9039 offers Japanese precision and steady reliability for a consistent everyday experience.

This technical care extends to every component. Cases and bracelets are made of 316L stainless steel treated up to 1200HV, up to five times more scratch-resistant than standard steel; some models feature an ADLC (Amorphous Diamond-Like Carbon) treatment reaching 2000HV for extreme resistance to scratches, wear and colour loss. Added to this is an integrated "rice grain" bracelet, developed to combine flexibility, strength and quick micro-adjustment, along with HNBR straps — a high-performance technical compound, soft on the wrist and built to last. Every element comes from dedicated molds, designed exclusively for the brand: no standard components, the movements aside.

At Calibro, you'll find the available selection of Officine Tecniche watches: technical timepieces with an Italian soul and a Swiss heart, made to be worn, lived in and pushed to their limits every day.
