The story of OREFICI dates back to 1933, when Umberto Cipolla’s grandfather; Luigi Farioli became an ore¬ce, which means goldsmith in Italian. Umberto’s grandfather had a jewelry store in which he designed handcrafted beautiful pieces of jewelry. He was more than a jewelry maker; he was an artist. His shop was located in the center of Milan in the district where high value collectibles were made and traded at the time. This district still exists today and there is even a Via Ore¬ci running down the middle. Umberto now takes his son Nicholas to the collectables district whenever they are in Milan as they move into the future together with the brand, OREFICI Watches.In 1933 all the jewelry was handcrafted with meticulous care and supreme attention to the smallest detail. There were many aspects to creating such ¬ne jewelry back than that OREFICI still use today to carry on the history, style and tradition from 1933 in today's timepieces. Italy has always been well known for innovation, fashion, and design with Milan being the heart of Italy's creativity. The visions and combined ideas of the OREFICI design team are greatly in uenced by Milan's history, trends and lifestyle. This very niche sets OREFICI apart from other watchmakers and a leader within its own unique category of excellence. OREFICI designs high-end one of a kind timepiece for men and women, ranging from big, bold and powerful to small, sleek and stylized. Each timepiece is meticulously crafted and produced with state of the art materials and processes. As OREFICI has been passed down from one generation to the next in my family, OREFICI wishes the same for you and your family. A more modern version of regatta yacht racing is regatta powerboat racing. The REGATACHRONOGRAPH collection is designed specifically for the sportsman who enjoys passion and extremes and expects the same from his timepiece. Miami, Florida was the inspiration for this line where powerboats replace classic sailboats and this sport is taken to another level. REGATA CHRONOGRAPH has timekeeping and stopwatch functions, a 1/20 of a second retrograde counter at 6 o’clock, and two sub dials at 3 and 9 o’clock. The retrograde feature allows the wearer to chronograph speed much quicker to 1/20 of a second; an essential need in powerboat racing. With moveable lugs, this timepiece molds to any wrist for a perfect fit, every time. Sleek yet sporty, this watch keeps up with a fast-paced lifestyle.

Great wrist presence
I purchased this timepiece because of the outstanding sale price. What I received was an outstanding quartz chrono! Great wrist presence, good overall legibility, and great fit and finish. I did, however, have to return it; the strap was just not suited to my wrist. I am still rating it a 5. Try it for the outstanding watch that it is. If the strap fits you, the watch will make you very happy.
