The Watch

Founded in 2017 in Italy by brothers Alberto and Alessandro Morelli, young watchmaking brand Venezianico crafts authentic, high-performance timepieces steeped in history and emotion, distinguished by their refined details, clean design, and exceptional quality. Deeply rooted in Venice, its history, and its rich cultural heritage, the brand presents this captivating Redentore Historia Temporis 1221520 watch - a piece that, once acquired, becomes a fragment of your own story. Inspired by the ancient "Osella" coin struck in the late 17th century by the 107th Doge of Venice, Marcantonio Giustinian, it effortlessly blends historical depth with wearable elegance, making it a standout addition to any collection. The case is crafted from 316L stainless steel in an elegant round shape measuring 40 mm in diameter, 46.70 mm in length, and 11 mm in thickness. Its polished finish adds a captivating touch for any occasion. Designed for men's wrists, it houses a notched, protected crown at 3 o'clock for easy time-setting. A sapphire crystal with an anti-reflective treatment shields the dial from everyday impacts and scratches while delivering optimal legibility. On the reverse, the case back is secured by six screws and engraved with a representation of the "Osella" coin along with details about its origin and symbolism, ensuring a water resistance of 50 meters.

The Dial

The undeniable star of this beautiful timepiece is its exquisite black dial with a charming vintage appeal. Inspired by a Venetian coin struck by Doge Marcantonio Giustinian between 1684 and 1688, it takes its name from the "Osella" and depicts at its top an angel alongside St. Mark's Square and a galleon. This struck and artisanally aged dial, finished with an oiling process, is sure to captivate every eye it meets. Beyond its aesthetics, it offers smooth analog display via two dauphine hands and a slender seconds hand - all in silver - for precise indication of hours, minutes, and seconds. The brand's cross logo is placed just below 12 o'clock as its signature.

The Movement

The Seiko NH35A caliber powers this watch, driving its hands with precision and smoothness. Operating at a frequency of 21,600 vibrations per hour, or 3 Hz, this 24-jewel automatic movement is renowned for its quality, efficiency, and dependable performance. It features the Diashock system for optimal shock resistance and a hacking seconds mechanism. This Japanese movement delivers accurate and reliable timekeeping in all circumstances, with a power reserve of 41 hours.

The Strap

To complement the uniqueness of this creation, the brand has chosen a beautiful strap crafted from antique bovine leather that has undergone artisanal restoration, lending it a more contemporary feel while preserving its aged charm and the character marks accumulated over the years. Made in Italy, it is wrapped in an intense black that pairs effortlessly with any look. An elegant, refined addition that elevates your style and rests gently on the wrist for comfortable, all-day wear. Its 316L stainless steel pin buckle makes for easy and secure fastening.

Water Resistance

This model offers a water resistance of 5 atmospheres, or 50 m - a refined timepiece that shines in any social setting without sacrificing durability. You can wear it in the shower, though the Ocarat team recommends leaving it on the edge of the sink to preserve its finish and longevity. For swimming and diving, we strongly advise against wearing this watch in the water to avoid damage and costly repairs.
