Entry Description

The idea of Ragazzo the brand emerged in the mid-nineties from a desire to create lifestyle products. It took the next fifteen years, but the idea has matured into an Italian lifestyle accessories brand bringing versatile and unique products to customers who can be confident that they are wearing a true original. Passion for details — This is what Ragazzo represents.

Each product is built to express personality in a subtle but elegant way. Utilising fine materials, finishes and colours to emphasise the character of the design, while delivering real quality to the customer.

Our heritage and engineering background drive most of our design decisions, making sure a product not only looks unique but delivers on its promise of being a simple yet emotional lifestyle accessory

This is Ragazzo's first watch, which was launched in April 2014. We have spent a long time designing this watch, which is the base for all R1 models. With this design we have set the tone for what Ragazzo strives for. We believe so much in this look and feel, that we even have patented its design.

After receiving lots of positive feedback from clients worldwide, Ragazzo has decided to go a step further and to introduce more models which follow in Ragazzo R1's footsteps.
