TITONI is one of the few remaining independent family-owned watch companies in Switzerland.
Three generations of the Schluep family have gone their own way for decades, and each of them has pursued long-term visions to guarantee the company’s stability and continuity. The fourth generation – Marc and Olivier – will equally keep this promise.
At the heart of TITONI’s philosophy is its mission to produce Swiss-made mechanical watches of the highest quality at affordable prices. With its unique, more than one hundred year-old heritage, the family company is fully dedicated to offering its clients first-class timepieces that live up to the company’s high standards.
Since 1919, the family-owned company has been combining the art of traditional watchmaking with the use of latest technology and a flair for the perfect form. Knowledge of the secrets of mechanical timepieces has marked the path of the company – from the past to the present day. This will continue into the future, with the next generation of the family.
In 2019, TITONI celebrated an extraordinary 100-year history. With this unique heritage, formed by the distinctive visions of the three patrons of the Schluep family, the Swiss watch company has long been famous for its popular and well-known series such as the Master Series, Airmaster or Cosmo. In its anniversary year, the company presented the T10 caliber (below), the first watch movement to have been developed and manufactured internally in the brand’s history.
Current Co-CEO’s, Marc and Olivier have grown up in an environment surrounded by the watch-making traditions of the Schluep family. During schooltime, they often worked at the TITONI headquarters in Grenchen to get first-hand experiences. Later, they accompanied their father Daniel on his many business trips to TITONI’s main markets in the Far East and other parts of the world.
TITONI timepieces are manufactured according to the statutory requirements of the “Swiss-Made Ordinance”. Based at their Manufacture in Grenchen, Switzerland (below), everything is done in-house with ‘Swiss-made’ being at the core of the brand’s creative process, from creative design to modern technology.
The essence of TITONI watches lies in paying attention to details. With passion and skills, the company’s watchmakers do their best to produce timepieces that reflect TITONI’s motto: “It is not the desire for growth and quantity but first-class quality and the love of details that matter.”
Perfect command of in-house production is a quality guarantee for TITONI watches. The very latest tools and equipment and a highly skilled workforce ensure that production meets the high demands of “Swiss made” quality.
TITONI watches are designed in-house and reflect their passion for detail which can be seen in the lavishly designed dials and in the artful combination of contrasting materials. The collections fulfil a range of needs and style expectations. The in-house assembly of the movements allows TITONI constantly to raise standards of quality, but also to set its own criteria. High-tech tools support the human hand when that means an improvement in quality.
After many inspections during stages of in-house production, TITONI carries out a final rigorous inspection of the finished products. All watches are inspected by highly skilled staff, who rely on sophisticated tools. By multiplying the quality controls in this way, TITONI is able to guarantee that all watches leaving its workshops will maintain the company’s reputation for utmost quality.
