Zannetti Gladiator Art Collection Vitruvian Edition Automatic – G.VIT.A2S-B1W.A 104129

The Vitruvian Man, a renowned drawing by Leonardo da Vinci circa 1490, is a representation of ideal human proportions based on the work of the ancient Roman architect Vitruvius. The drawing features a male figure in two superimposed positions, arms and legs apart, inscribed within a circle and square. This masterpiece, housed in the Gabinetto dei disegni e stampe of the Gallerie dell’Accademia in Venice, is occasionally displayed to the public due to its delicate nature.

Shifting to a contemporary context, the Zannetti Vitruvian Blue watch exemplifies a fusion of artistry and precision. Encased in a 44mm diameter stainless steel case, and 14.5mm thickness, the watch boasts a sapphire crystal and a handmade champlevé and engraved translucent blue enamel dial. Luminous hands enhance readability, while its automatic movement powers functions of hours, minutes, and seconds. The watch comes with a Louisiana Alligator strap and a double-folding clasp. With a water resistance of 30 meters, this timepiece combines traditional craftsmanship with modern engineering. The name "Vitruvian Blue" pays homage to Leonardo da Vinci's masterpiece, reflecting the meticulous proportions and attention to detail characteristic of both art and horology. The Zannetti watch not only tells time but also serves as an artistic homage to the timeless ideals embodied by the Vitruvian Man.
