Titoni is a Swiss watchmaker that was founded in 1919 by Fritz Schluep in the Swiss "watch town" of Grenchen. The company, which is now owned by the third generation of its founding family, currently employs around 60 people. Almost all of the timepieces have mechanical movements that are assembled by hand. The family-owned company is a very traditional watchmaker.
The watch brand Titoni is known in Switzerland by watch experts in particular as a quality brand. Being a small independent company, Titoni have only been available in a small number of markets and are rarely sold in the UK although they have quite a big presence in Europe.
