Direnzo Watches is a boutique micro-watch brand crafting Swiss-made timepieces with a distinctive retro-modern flair. Driven by founder Sergio (G.) Di Renzo, the label specializes in elegant yet adventurous designs—often inspired by vintage automotive and aeronautical aesthetics—that fuse nostalgic cues with contemporary craftsmanship and accessible pricing. The brand is known for its “bowl-shaped” dials, first introduced with the DRZ 02 in 2018, creating depth and seamless case-dial integration—an example of its retro-futuristic signature design ethos. Direnzo consistently uses quality materials—316L steel with scratch-resistant HV 800 coating, sapphire crystals with AR coating, Sellita movements with Incabloc protection, and robust 10 ATM water resistance—to deliver both reliability and visual sophistication.
