In his invention, the founder used centuries-old traditions and innovative technologies, to which many manufacturers only equal. The brand name originated from Italo's love for yachts, the sea and his sports hobbies that are associated with them.

For example, the clockwork mechanism in the form of a three-dimensional head is transferred to an unusual left for everyone. This nuance was previously used in the pilot models of watches, characteristic of the thirties of the previous century. This innovative implementation will be appreciated by left-handers and fans of active and violent gesticulation.
