The answer is not so trivial. It is obvious and historically established that Switzerland, with its dedicated districts \u2013 and first and foremost the one in Geneva \u2013 has the most integrated, structured and technologically advanced supply chain in the world when it comes to mechanical watchmaking, particularly in the top- and very-top-of-the-range segments. Having said that, top-level Italian watchmaking does play in the same league, as it is an integral part \u2013 again, historically \u2013 of the Swiss supply chain. Meaning that most of the components of a high-end Swiss watch \u2013 from the case to the bracelets or straps, etc. \u2013 may have been produced in Italy by independent suppliers. This has been happening for decades and will probably continue to happen as long as high-end Swiss watchmaking exists. Without naming anyone, for example: the natural stones used on dials by the most important players in the watchmaking world \u2013 yes, even the one you are thinking about right now \u2013 come from a vendor based in Lombardy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_13.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_13-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"Locman X Decimo Canto\" class=\"wp-image-23312\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_13-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_13-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_13-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_13-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_13-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_13.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>EVERYTHING, EXCEPT MOVEMENTS&#8230; UP TO THE OISA CINQUE PONTI<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After this necessary premise, it must also be said that this is how things work, except when it comes to movements. There have been and still are rare exceptions (the old and the new OISA being one of them), but in Italy there has never been a consolidated movement industry. So much so that the only two true high-end brands who have been able to challenge their Swiss cousins \u2013 Panerai first and Bulgari later, when it was still owned by Italians \u2013 have always used Swiss movements in their watches. And so much so that the many outstanding Italian watchmakers \u2013 above all the Italian master watchmakers Giulio Papi and Luca Soprana \u2013 have to work in Le Locle and Vaumarcus in order to create absolute excellence and win watchmaking GPs in Geneva.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_21.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_21-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"Locman X Decimo Canto\" class=\"wp-image-23311\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_21-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_21-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_21-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_21-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_21-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_21.jpg 1772w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But Italy, far more than strict Switzerland, has genius, creativity and dreamers\u2019 romanticism in its favour. Our friend and Locman founder Marco Mantovani \u2013 together with other actors of the recent rebirth of the OISA 1937 Manufacture \u2013 wanted to fill this gap once and for all: that\u2019s why he created the now famous OISA Calibre 29-50 Cinque Ponti. An ultra-thin hand-wound mechanical movement with 13 lines, a diameter of 29.50 mm and a thickness of 3.50 mm. Mounted on 19 jewels and made of brass, it is the true incarnation of the Made-in-Italy spirit, with impeccable high-end features: handmade C\u00f4tes de Gen\u00e8ve on the bridges and Perlage on the plate; adjustment with counterweights on the balance; 60-hour power reserve and daily chronometric tolerance of +\/- 10 seconds; and, above all, such aesthetic beauty, thanks to the separate bridges of absolute high level, with premium finishes (which can also be customised on request).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong>DREAMER MEETS DREAMER: THE TENTH CANTO CONCEIVED WITH SANDRO FRATINI<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Marco Mantovani has also a great driving force. Starting from the idea that the mechanical watch was already known and used in Italy in the 14th century, as Dante recounts in the Divine Comedy (precisely in the 10th Paradiso Canto, in reference to the church bells that marked the canonical hours), he convinced another wonderful dreamer and friend of ours, the Florentine Sandro Fratini \u2013 the world&#8217;s biggest collector of vintage watches and founder of the L&#8217;O hotel chain \u2013 to imagine with him a watch inspired by memorable people of the Renaissance, such as Filippo Brunelleschi, Leonardo Da Vinci and Galileo Galilei. Sandro accepted enthusiastically, obviously, and the result is this delightful 38 mm-diameter watch: the Decimo Canto by Locman X \u2013 with the X standing for the luxury segment of the brand from Elba \u2013 in partnership again with the OISA 1937 manufacture which provided the movements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_01.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_01-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"Locman X Decimo Canto\" class=\"wp-image-23313\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_01-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_01-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_01-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_01-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_01-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_01.jpg 1772w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\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\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_03.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"682\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_03-682x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Locman X Decimo Canto\" class=\"wp-image-23314\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_03-682x1024.jpg 682w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_03-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_03-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_03-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_03-600x900.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_03.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\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_04.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"682\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_04-682x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Locman X Decimo Canto\" class=\"wp-image-23315\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_04-682x1024.jpg 682w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_04-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_04-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_04-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_04-600x900.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_04.jpg 1181w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 682px) 100vw, 682px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Let us come to the technical-aesthetic characteristics.

The four lugs embrace the case, running harmoniously up to the strap and emphasising the three-dimensional originality of the overall design. The crown, with its internal o-ring seal, guarantees water resistance up to 5 atmospheres and is decorated with a stone that also recalls the dial\u2019s material. <\/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\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_11.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"682\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_11-682x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Locman X Decimo Canto\" class=\"wp-image-23323\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_11-682x1024.jpg 682w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_11-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_11-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_11-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_11-600x900.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_11.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\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_10.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"682\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_10-682x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Locman X Decimo Canto\" class=\"wp-image-23317\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_10-682x1024.jpg 682w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_10-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_10-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_10-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_10-600x900.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_10.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\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_12.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_12-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"Locman X Decimo Canto\" class=\"wp-image-23322\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_12-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_12-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_12-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_12-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_12-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Locman_Decimo_Canto_Watch_Insanity_12.jpg 1772w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Completing the overall aesthetics with a classy touch: the dials in mother-of-pearl, lapis lazuli, malachite, tiger&#8217;s eye, red jasper and turquoise \u2013 all natural hard stones, making each timepiece unique. And for those who might not be satisfied, more precious versions also exist, such as the aforementioned gold case model and the one with natural white diamonds \u2013 provided by the Italian jeweller Crivelli, excellence of international high-end jewellery \u2013 set on the dial and on the case lugs (also available in titanium). A further noteworthy detail on the Oisa Cinque Ponti is the sapphire crystal on the case back. In fact, it has a colouring \u2013 faint, but nonetheless allowing an great view of the movement \u2013 always matching the colouring of the dial.
