Grimoldi

Grimoldi is a Milanese luxury house specializing in watches and jewelry. The brand emphasizes bold, oversized geometries and traditional Italian craftsmanship. Its aesthetic merges classical horology with contemporary artistic influences, representing a sophisticated urban subculture rooted in Milan’s high-fashion heritage and artisanal excellence.

History

Anselmo Grimoldi established the brand in Milan during the mid-twentieth century as a family-run enterprise. It gained international recognition in the late 1990s with the introduction of the Borgonovo watch, characterized by its distinctive elongated oval case. This design contributed to the trend of oversized luxury timepieces. The brand remains a fixture in the Milanese jewelry district, maintaining a legacy of independent watchmaking and family-led creative direction within the global luxury market.
