History

Where it all began

The Myth

Caesar Augustus (63 BCE), Julius Caesar’s second cousin, was the first official emperor of the Roman Empire. Although he officially wanted to restore the Roman Republic, he seized power as the only commander-in-chief of the legions. The Titanio Augustus is a tough, manly watch that also stands out due to its design and colour scheme. Just like Caesar Augustus did in his day.

DIAL

Sunray Chronograph

Style Icon​

The ancient Romans preferred not to use the designation ‘IV’ because those were the initials of the name of the Roman supreme god IVPITER. Titanio is a modern Italian watch brand and, out of respect, will not use the ‘IV’ when there are Roman numerals on a watch face. Titanio watch faces are clearly legible and, if they have chronos, they indicate the hours, minutes and seconds.

Calibre

calibre Quartz

Ultimate precision

Emperor Augustus had an obelisk brought over from Egypt. On the obelisk, a sphere was placed, whose shadow fell on a Roman square where bronze markings were installed in the paving, from which the time could be read. The “Horologium” is probably the largest sundial ever built. The movements of Titanio watches are also large and at least as reliable and accurate.

Strap

Leather

Easy comfort

A popular piece of jewellery among wealthy Roman men was the signet ring. This piece of jewellery was used to seal letters. Roman bracelets were characterized in particular by the decoration of stones and glass. This is why Titanio pays a lot of attention to the design and quality of the watch strap.

Packaging

LUXURIOUS AND ELEGANT

Presentation

The Colosseum was chosen as one of the new seven wonders of the world in 2007. A magical place that symbolizes the old and the new city of Rome. Not only are Titanio watches designed with passion and dedication; that also applies to the stylish tin mini Colosseum in which Titanio watches are packaged.
