Giuseppe Marasco Fabio Presicce, graduate in aerospace engineering and PhD in Mechanical Engineering, was twelve years old when he received his first watch as a gift from his grandfather, Mr. Nazareno Rossetti.
Since that moment his love for the world of horology was born and his passion for engineering and gears led him to transform the dream of his own watch into a concrete project.
If the brand name is dedicated to the beloved grandfather, the logo depicts the astrolabe, an ancient astronomical instrument through which you can locate or calculate the position of the Sun and the stars, for a given latitude, day and time of the year.
The first model by Nazareno Rossetti® is the Fomalhaut®, a waterproof sport watch up to 100 meters that pays homage, with its name, the brightest star of the constellation of Piscis Austrinus.
The dodecagonal fixed bezel and the case of the watch remind in its lines the avionics instruments installed in aircraft cockpits from the 50s to the 90s.
The first Fomalhaut® collection is available in five variants that recall the world of astronomy once again: Deep Summer, Bright Winter, Absolute Autumn, Soft Spring and Dark Matter.

Nazareno Rossetti – the logo
The logo of the brand is identified with the astrolabe, an ancient astronomical instrument thanks to the which calculations can be performed analogue astronomical.
Used to locate or calculate, for a date longitude, the position of celestial bodies such as the sun, the moon, planets and stars, the astrolabe, as well as showing us what
we will see in heaven for every day of the year and for every hour
of day and night, allows us to know even the time of the rising and setting of the sun.
It is the perfect symbol to represent the concepts of adventure, exploration, space and stars outlined by Nazareno Rossetti brand®
Nazareno Rossetti – Why Buy
Nazareno Rossetti® enters the world of watchmaking with an important timepiece both for its size and for its rigorous design. The 12-sided bezel is the refined detail that sets it apart. An eye-catching watch but softened by the study of colours inspired by the seasons.
The Black Matter variant breaks out of this pattern for an absolutely non-trivial proposal, “the dark matter – the stainless steel IP Black case – that blends with the blue colours of outer space – leather strap and blue sunrise dial”.
