THE COMPANY’S BIRTH

Passion for travelling, curiosity for new cultures and places cannot be built artificially. It is written in your DNA. You have it or you don’t! A wind of freedom inspired Gerardo Rosafinta while he was sailing around the island of Corsica; he decided to turn into reality the history of his dreams, because the authentic luxury is to live one’s dreams.

Once he arrived in the harbour of Ajaccio, Gerardo Rosafinta stepped into a sailor shop and purchased the marine clock, which would become a source of inspiration for the first model of the VIATOR’s timekeeper.
