FOUNDERS' MESSAGE - BROTHERS WITH A PASSION FOR TIME

Welcome to SCALFARO – WATCHES FOR ENTHUSIASTS.

Having grown up in a family with a longstanding tradition in the field of fine jewellery we share a great respect for craftsmanship and creativity. Since we can remember, my brother and myself were fascinated by the process of creation. To see your ideas come to life from a sketch on a piece of paper to a first prototype and finally to a finished object is one of the most rewarding experiences.

Our passion for craftsmanship and engineering has been driving us since our youth to collect timepieces incorporating distinct features and of outstanding quality.  In 2001 the time had come for us to tap our entrepreneurial genes and start our own company. SCALFARO was born with the aim of creating WATCHES FOR ENTHUSIASTS just like ourselves…

At SCALFARO we are guided by long-term vision and a passionate dedication to quality, design and service. SCALFARO expresses our fascination with engineering, motorsport and maritime world. Never shy of taking on new challenges, we are particularely proud of developments such as our editions incorporating original material of some of the world’s most rare and valuable cars, our own RetroMoon complication movement or our innovative collaboration with leading yacht designer Espen Oeino.

We hope you enjoy our work and would be delighted to welcome you among the special circle of enthusiasts owning a SCALFARO timepiece.

Yours sincerely

 Alexander Kuhnle & Dominik Kuhnle

THE SCALFARO LIMITED EDITION TIMEPIECES:

At SCALFARO we are a team of passionate people. We take our energy and inspiration from all things mechanical, in particular from the worlds of classic cars, yachts and aviation.

With our special editions we would like to share our love for precision and fine engineering by putting the limelight on the engineers, designers and craftsmen that shaped our world as we know it today. We celebrate their achievements and creations with truly outstanding timepieces that have a story to tell…

QUALITY

The founders of SCALFARO envision their timepieces to be of unique design and sophisticated technical complexity yet resolutely functional.

Quality of construction and design is evidenced by details such as the unique and exclusively developed ScalfaScrews, the interplay of polished and satin-finished Surfaces as well as the imposing architecture of its multi-level, multi-faceted case design.

Many details make up the facets of SCALFARO’s personality and lead to a characteristic look that can easily be recognized among other timepieces.

SCALFARO timekeepers distinguish themselves also by a number of exclusive and useful technical features:
Anti-reflective sapphire crystal, refined mechanical movements, water-resistance to at least 100 meters (330 feet, 10 ATM), screw-down crown, fluorescent hands and luminous applications on the watch dial as well as the transparent sapphire crystal case back fixed with the exclusive “ScalfaScrews” are among the technical characteristics that make up the unique identity of a genuine SCALFARO timepiece.
