Many things because, historically, it is the most important and structured Italian watchmaking company, with impressive numbers. Just to say, the brand&#8217;s distribution network counts 1,200 authorised dealers worldwide and, icing on the cake, seven flagship boutiques scattered between the Island of Elba (Marina di Campo, Portoferraio and Porto Azzurro) and the rest of the world (Milan, Florence, Antigua and Tokyo). It is many things, we were saying, because through the other companies owned by Locman \u2013 including Genesi, a Milan factory <strong>founded over fifty years ago by brother watchmakers Luigi and Armando Leandri<\/strong>, acquired in 2003 and incorporated in 2021 \u2013 Locman is also the Italian reference in the &#8216;private label&#8217; segment: from the initial project to production. It is many things, moreover, because it is one of the leading partners of the reborn watch manufacturer <strong>OISA 1937<\/strong>, a historic mechanical movements factory, &#8216;Made in Italy&#8217;. <strong>Which in 2022, after a good five years of research and development, presented the new OISA Cinque Ponti manual mechanical movement<\/strong>. While the soul \u2013 alone and firmly at the helm \u2013 is obviously that of its president, <strong>Marco Mantovani<\/strong>, born on the Island of Elba in 1961 and who, at his home in Marina di Campo in 1986, set up Locman together with his friend <strong>Fulvio Locci<\/strong>.

With Locci, being great watch enthusiasts, we went to Baselworld in the spring of that year. We entered with our briefcases to present our leather straps to the luxurious and stylish watchmaking world. We were young and reckless enough to ignore that we couldn&#8217;t sell our products without being exhibitors. The gendarmes quickly caught us and threw us out. We came back with only a few straps in our pockets and met Gino Macaluso, one of the greatest men in the history of world watchmaking. He fell in love with our straps, and that\u2019s how it all started, by meeting the man of destiny.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong>SECOND STAGE \u2013 RADICA AND CARLO CROCCO<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>What happened next?<\/strong>&nbsp;&#8216;The following year we produced the first Genesi watches for third parties, and then, <strong>in 1988 we made the first Locman-branded watch.

Then two long-standing friends, <strong>Giuseppe Pea <\/strong>and the American<strong> Ben Feigenbaum<\/strong>, joined the corporate asset.

On the first day that our watches were on display in the windows of one of the most famous shops on the planet, <strong>Bergdorf Goodman<\/strong>, the large luxury shopping mall on Fifth Avenue in Midtown Manhattan, New York, J<strong>ennifer Lopez and her then partner Puff Daddy walked in. Ms Lopez lingered over an aluminium and diamond Sport model<\/strong>. <strong>Puff Daddy<\/strong> noticed his companion&#8217;s attention to our watch and, shortly afterwards, <strong>returned to the shop alone to buy two<\/strong>. One for himself and one to give to his partner as a birthday present. And that&#8217;s when the pandemonium happened. At that point, everyone wanted the aluminium and diamond model. And by <strong>everyone we mean people like Sharon Stone and Nicole Kidman. Even Elton John bought three hundred of them as gifts for his birthday guests!<\/strong>\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Sport_Watch_Insanity.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"682\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Sport_Watch_Insanity-682x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Locman\" class=\"wp-image-21598\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Sport_Watch_Insanity-682x1024.jpg 682w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Sport_Watch_Insanity-600x900.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Sport_Watch_Insanity-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Sport_Watch_Insanity-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Sport_Watch_Insanity-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Sport_Watch_Insanity.jpg 1181w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 682px) 100vw, 682px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Puff_Diddy_Watch_Insanity.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"682\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Puff_Diddy_Watch_Insanity-682x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Puff Diddy\" class=\"wp-image-21599\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Puff_Diddy_Watch_Insanity-682x1024.jpg 682w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Puff_Diddy_Watch_Insanity-600x900.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Puff_Diddy_Watch_Insanity-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Puff_Diddy_Watch_Insanity-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Puff_Diddy_Watch_Insanity-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Puff_Diddy_Watch_Insanity.jpg 1181w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 682px) 100vw, 682px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Sharon_Stone_Watch_Insanity.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Sharon_Stone_Watch_Insanity-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"Sharon Stone\" class=\"wp-image-21600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Sharon_Stone_Watch_Insanity-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Sharon_Stone_Watch_Insanity-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Sharon_Stone_Watch_Insanity-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Sharon_Stone_Watch_Insanity-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Sharon_Stone_Watch_Insanity-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Sharon_Stone_Watch_Insanity.jpg 1772w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong>FOURTH STAGE \u2013 CONSOLIDATION AND CARBON<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>As they say, fortune favours the bold!

There is the Aethalia line, from the ancient name of Elba, which in Greek means sparkle and refers to the glow from the Etruscan furnaces that the Argonauts noticed when observing the island from the sea. With cases in different metals and a sandblast enamel dial, it costs \u20ac4,980. Then there is <strong>the Decimo Canto model, developed in collaboration with our friend Sandro Fratini<\/strong>, the world&#8217;s biggest collector of vintage watches and creator of the L&#8217;O brand. <strong>The polished titanium case has three flounces, in homage to the three&nbsp;<em>cantiche<\/em>&nbsp;of Dante&#8217;s Divine Comedy<\/strong>. The four lugs embrace the flounces from the glass to the strap and emphasise the uniqueness of the design and volumes. With the sartorial uniqueness of the dials in <strong>six different hard stones: mother-of-pearl, lapis lazuli, malachite, tiger&#8217;s eye, red jasper and turquoise<\/strong>. And each dial, inevitably, makes each timepiece unique. The most precious versions have natural white diamonds set on the hour markers and case lugs in collaboration with Crivelli. With prices ranging from \u20ac5,950 to \u20ac12,950.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_01.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"682\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_01-682x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Locman Decimo Canto\" class=\"wp-image-21635\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_01-682x1024.jpg 682w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_01-600x900.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_01-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_01-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_01-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_01.jpg 1181w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 682px) 100vw, 682px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_02.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"682\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_02-682x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Locman Decimo Canto\" class=\"wp-image-21636\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_02-682x1024.jpg 682w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_02-600x900.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_02-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_02-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_02-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_02.jpg 1181w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 682px) 100vw, 682px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_03.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"682\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_03-682x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Locman Decimo Canto\" class=\"wp-image-21637\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_03-682x1024.jpg 682w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_03-600x900.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_03-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_03-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_03-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_03.jpg 1181w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 682px) 100vw, 682px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>To conclude, any other significant news?&nbsp;<\/strong>\u2018<strong>In 2024, OISA 1937 will present a version with an automatic movement based on the Calibre 29-50 Cinque Ponti<\/strong>.
