News 2018: Model Guastatore equipped with the innovative trigalight® lighting technology of the Swiss mb-microtec ag; the only company in the world that makes this exclusive lighting technology for watches. The manufacture of self-illuminating trigalight® is the result of decades of research and development: trigalight® illuminates clocks without the need for external power or sunlight; shines up to 25 years and requires no maintenance.

How does trigalight® work? It uses glass tubes lined internally with phosphorus powder that are filled with tritium gas isotope of hydrogen gas and sealed with lasers in order to create a vacuum. When the phosphorus powder is exposed to the electrons of the tritium gas, the phosphorus undergoes an excitation phase and is able to emit a light of different intesity of visible color both with low luminosity and in complete darkness.

NAVY

The Navy is one of the four armed forces of the Italian Republic, with Italian Army, Aeronautics and Carabineros: it is responsible for the control and performance of naval operations in territorial and international waters.

Its history began in 1946 after the Second World War with the birth of the Republic, inheriting the structure of the Royal Navy and naval units that the conditions of the armistice and peace treaty left in Italy. After an expansion also due to the sale by the United States of some naval units and a construction program known as "Naval Law", necessary to face the threat of the Warsaw Pact, from the end of the 20th century, a program of downsizing was implemented due to the revaluation of the tasks of the armed forces.
Its mission, first in NATO and then in the European Union, is to maintain a continuous and credible presence in the Mediterranean area, in the control of Italian seas with aeronautical vehicles and its ground support, cooperation with allied naval forces , in the maintenance of a surface force and an underwater force able to function autonomously guaranteeing protection from aerial, surface and submarine infractions, which support an amphibious component capable of performing limited operations.
