ANONIMO – NAUTILO Bronze & DLC and MILITARE Alpini




















ANONIMONAUTILO Bronze & DLC and MILITARE Alpini Bronze

ANONIMO: bronze in the spotlight for 20 years

A pioneer in the manufacture of bronze watches, ANONIMO has historical legitimacy thanks to the know-how of Florentine craftsmen. Continuing to work with this alloy to have an optimal aesthetic, ANONIMO presented at the beginning of the year a new bronze for their entire collection. After several months the patina is now unveiled with a chocolate model of the limited edition MILITARE Alpini. This new shade, more pink, can be found in an elegant association with the materials of the latest NAUTILO Bicolor.

Bronze, this noble and elegant material, was used by the most mythical Italian sculptors to create timeless works. This trend has been gaining momentum in watchmaking in recent years, whereas at ANONIMO bronze watches have legitimacy derived from their Florentine origins.

The resistance of bronze to wear and corrosion is such that it has been used in the naval world for centuries. Indeed, this material reacts to its environment and the slight oxidation of its surface will protect the metal from any attack. What's more natural for ANONIMO than using bronze in their watches developed for professional divers of the Italian navy? This is how ANONIMO presented to the world the first bronze diving watch in 2006 with the Polluce model.

After moving to Switzerland, ANONIMO presented a first limited edition: the vintage edition MILITARE "Alpini". Limited to 97 units, decorated with a relief engraving of the Matterhorn on the back of its case, this model available only in bronze, is renewed in 2017 with a Camouflage version. Its guilloche chocolate dial plays with the light and after several months of wear, the case shows its new face. As for the NAUTILO line, the newest arrival combines bronze and DLC (Diamond Like Carbon) and thus highlights the peculiarity of this case comprised of three parts. The contrast of colors associated with a midnight blue dial and a black ceramic bezel recall Italian elegance.

Whatever the model of the ANONIMO collection, the slow and progressive oxidation of the alloy ages and endows the watches with a vintage and unique character. With a natural patina, the new bronze lives and evolves with the wearer and gives a uniform and harmonious appearance to the case.

All the while reaffirming its origins, ANONIMO celebrates with dignity its 20 candles, while a breeze of modernity blows on the NAUTILO and MILITARE models.
