Founded in 1856 by Giuseppe Allemano, the Italian watch company Allemano began as a precision instrument manufacturer. Originally renowned for producing pressure gauges, and dynamometers for automotive, aviation and marine industries, Allemano transitioned into the horological world in 2019. Their timepieces draw inspiration from vintage dashboard instruments and offer a harmonious blend of Italian craftsmanship with Swiss precision movements. Allemano watches are not just classy accessories, but rather art objects to be treasured. 

The 1973 Collection represents another piece of Allemano’s history. The collection pays homage to the Crab and Shark depth gauges which, thanks to their technical innovation, dictated the law in underwater mechanics in the 1970s and 1980s. The new line, created in 2022, consists of a modern re-edition of the historic Crab and the new Shark underwater timepieces.
