However i do agree that they are good brand with rich watchmaking history, and managed to survive the "Quartz Crisis" whereby most brands don't.
I recently bought 2 vintage pieces - 70's Cosmo King and ladies Titoflex, both still runs strong despite they had never been serviced for the past 30+ years!

This is a classic case of 'lack of brand awareness' - brand must spend to create/maintain awareness. Even PP spends money in our local papers to keep the awareness going.

Yes, @meoramri bro. I totally agree . Lately I even saw Rolex GMT watch put on its advertisement in Singapore TV - Channel News Asia . I was so surprised.

I believe there might be due to lack of new sport and "core" model to remind the customers that they are a good brand as well. Also, there was also lack of marketing activities or advertisements to create brand awareness, IMHO. Never had a Titoni in my collection yet.buy on Titoni and you will change idea . There is quality. Add it to your collection

If I'm not mistaken Titoni used to be quite famous in Asia from 60's to early 80's, but they were losing younger customers, probably due to their conservative design and lack of sports model.
However i do agree that they are good brand with rich watchmaking history, and managed to survive the "Quartz Crisis" whereby most brands don't.

I don't think Titoni has the entire catalogue of homage. True that the design does not shine of originality but it is clear that not all watches are homage to other houses. In fact I think the Master series for example, despite the sobriety has different graphics. The Seascoper sounds like a great watch as design. Others present as the Airmaster are classic. The only real homage the cosmo King. Now of these watches there are all brands, now and in the past even big names like Zenith, Eberhard and many others proposed clocks on that design, with magnificent lens on model Rolex. Significant that, among all, Rolex sued Titoni Cosmo king just for her. Going to get lost in court the case has meant that this Cosmos King is in turn an icon among the Homage, being the only among so many brands made budge a colossus like Rolex. If you go to see, all homes have pretty much any watch that is inspired by any particular model that has made history. Even the Diver for example how many houses they really do something original? Even Rolex honors herself with the Tudor brand, which only now begins to make changes in design, but in the classics like Cellini it could be argued that some other brand are homage to? Finally we have to understand that for a small factory like Titoni is not easy to survive in the midst of industrial clossi. The design is safe, there becomes unbalanced, it tends more to the concrete, a good thing at the bottom. The watches have a features that from a concrete impression of quality, of strength, of getting things done properly. The design could be improved, and in future I think this will happen for larger forces. The brand, however, does not make longer jumps of one leg. And maybe that's why it has survived the worst economic crises, while the Giants were falling to the ground or to aggregate to other houses to survive.
