Which are the most interesting markets for Scatola del Tempo and which are its most successful products?

At the moment there are nascent markets such as the ex USSR, for instance Ukraine and Kazakhstan, which are both very interesting countries. We’ve started selling in China – for once it’s the Chinese who buy our goods and not the other way round – and this is certainly also an expanding market. We also have specific requests from all over the world, for custom-made models. We have recently sent three armor-plated 64RTs to Morocco, but I’m not allowed to name names, considering the client’s importance. We’re also producing a series of mechanical units with winders (250 in total), which will then be located in a safe room; the project will be completed by the end of the month of May.
Naturally, the most successful models belong in the standard series. One of our bestsellers for over fifteen years  was the 7RT. At the moment we sell the oversized series quite successfully, especially in its new chocolat shade.
 

Which are the novelties that Scatola del Tempo reserved for collectors and fans during BaselWorld 2009?

First of all, I would like to point out that we celebrated the first twenty years of Scatola del Tempo; Basel offered us a chance to celebrate such an important goal along with all our friends and clients. As always, we were all there and it was a real pleasure my mother and I to welcome, and personally thank all those who contributed to making our brand so unique throughout the years. But it’s obvious that the most heart-felt thanks ought to go to my father. Without his ingenious idea, none of any of this would ever have happened. The novelties at Basel 2009 have once again astonished our clients and our fiercest competitors. As it happens, we came out with a line entirely in wood. It’s in essence zebrano wood, which mustn’t be confused with macassar. It’s
not only a far more modern design than previous ones, but most importantly it allows one to rewind oversize watches too, something previously possible only when buying the leather models. Furthermore, we presented two new special models: the 21RT EB OS, a cabinet in zebrano wood with a grand total of 21 rotators in an ultra-modern design, always in an oversized version, not to mention the new oversized version of the Timesafe.
