Manometro Watches

One of Giuliano Mazzuolis most ambitious projects ever was the development of a fine watch. For years Mazzuoli had dreamed of designing an original watch which was different than any other watch currently for sale. Mazzouli then acquired all the books and magazines that he could get on the subject of watches and he had great difficulty finding the inspiration for the design that hed dreamed of. In reviewing the material he had found, he came to the conclusion that this seeing more designs would only push him to be influenced in design by something that had already been done. Unwilling to create something that had already been made he abandoned the initiative and threw out everything he had about watches. It was not again until later when he saw a pressure gauge that he found his watchs inspiration, the Manometro which is Italian for Pressure gauge. Mazzuolis inspiration came in the form of an everyday object. Giuliano Mazzuoli, who is now 58 years old, was born and lives in Tavarnelle Val di Pesa. Mazzuoli has two sons who work with him in the family business. While working on the project of creating the Manometro, Mazzuoli discovered that one of his ancestors was a master watch-maker in a factory producing tower clocks in the Chianti region of Tuscany. By entering the world of fine watches, Mazzuoli is reclaiming his watch-making heritage but at the same time is bringing the world something new.
