There are collections born out of luck, and others born out of obsession.\nCarlo Biagioli\u2019s belongs to the latter \u2014 and he states it with the pride of someone who knows that every piece shown in these pages carries a story, a journey, a negotiation, a moment of grace.\nFor over forty years, Carlo has traveled the world with the trained eye of someone who knows exactly where to look: flea markets and luxury salons, quiet auctions in private residences, and the forgotten shop windows of provincial watchmakers.\nHe has learned to recognize an original case by touch, to read the character of a dial as one reads a face, and to understand whether a movement is correct even before opening the case back.\nThe result of this discipline is the collection you hold in your hands \u2014 or rather, the one you are about to see pass before your eyes.\nNinety watches.\nNinety instruments for measuring time that, in a certain sense, have stopped it.\nEach one has been selected according to precise criteria: authenticity above all, then rarity, then condition, and finally that more elusive quality collectors simply call \u201cpresence.\u201d\nSince we were very young, Carlo and I have always shared an appreciation for the beauty of the tangible \u2014 everything that passed before our eyes.\nOver time, each of us built our own collection.
We decided to carry this passion into the world of watches by creating the brand \u201cBrutti Anatroccoli\u201d \u2014 curated selections of vintage timepieces with added value.\nA way to rediscover vintage design meeting a contemporary spirit, for wrists that want to speak of style and stories.\nOver the years, Carlo also built The Vintageur, a reference platform for enthusiasts of vintage watchmaking, where his expertise has evolved into a method: to document, to contextualize, to enhance.\nThat same method underpins every lot presented in this catalogue.\nChoosing to auction ninety pieces is never an easy decision for someone who collects with this level of dedication.\nIt is an act of generosity toward the world \u2014 the belief that these watches deserve new hands to appreciate them, new stories to be added to their own.\nNot a divestment, but a passing of the torch.\nThose who acquire a watch from this selection are not simply purchasing a fine mechanical object.\nThey are acquiring a way of seeing the world: that of a man who has dedicated his entire life to understanding how human ingenuity has, for centuries, managed to enclose time within a circle of metal and crystal.
