Photo Report: 45 Watches That Stole The Street-Style Show At Pitti Uomo

July 06, 2021

Street style is equal parts envy and inspiration. You see someone doing something you probably do C walking C looking how you would probably like to look C exceedingly cool C with such ease. There is no greater moment for off-the-cuff men's fashion photography than Pitti Uomo, the annual menswear trade show in Florence. We sent photographer Robert Spangle to capture the best watch moments, and the stylish folks pounding the strada did not disappoint. Franco Mazzetti; @franz_1955 Hes owned this 1968 GMT Master for more than 40 years and is particularly attached to the dome of the plexiglass crystal. Amedae Stevens with his vintage Kienzle watch. This watch was made for a German industrial truck manufacturer. Carlos Dominquex; @carlos_domord This vintage Rolex Datejust was a gift from his significant other. Carla and Mario Bottoni; designers for @soxintheboxshop Mario purchased a Mickey Mouse Rolex for his wife five years ago; he snagged one for himself a year later. Andrea Braggazzi; @andreabragazzi Andrea thinks of his 1970s Patek Philippe Golden Ellipse more as a piece of jewelry than a watch. He bought this particular example because of the inky blue opalescent dial. Giovanni Moro, from UNIMATIC.
