Hi
Does anyone have any knowledge of these watches, all I know is that they are made in Italy and I do not think they have any dealers in the UK. They look a great watch and are a bit different to the normal makes like Omega, Breitling and Rolex!

I'm thinking of getting the model 6002 Professionale Crono which is about $9K.

Answers on a postcard pls!

Steve

I just sold my Hi-dive.

Great watches - the story is they are the craftsmen that used to make Panerai, who were left behind following the Vendome group takeover and move to CH.
I think there's perhaps a little romance in that tale, but nevertheless, they are very well made, solid tool watches for the main.

Dunno about anywhere else, but there's an authorised Dealer in Nottingham: Cope Jewellers. Picked up a brochure there last weekend.

Professonale Chrono is listed at £4760.

ETA: Looks like their HQ is in Halifax of all places.
