From hats to watches

Dai cappelli agli orologi

Borsalino celebrates 150 years of the history of the famous headgear and launches itself into the world of two-handed watches by partnering with the Italian company Sclock, known for its Officina del Tempo and Spazio 24 brands, for the production of its models. The elegance and charm of the famous hats is the source of inspiration for a watch collection with a classic taste. An example of this is the model in the photo, which features a large round steel case and a refined black dial, worked in the centre with a distinctive horizontal ribbed decoration, with applied Roman numerals and small seconds at 6 o'clock. The attention to details that make a difference and become elements of style is evident in certain details, such as the leather strap covered in the central part with the same straw used for the legendary Panama hats, with a vague colonial flavour. But even the packaging is no less impressive: the shape is in fact taken from an antique hat box.
