Ep #41: Italian Watch Design, La Dolce Vita & The Labormatic with Mo Coppoletta from Gagà Laboratorio

Immerse yourself in La Dolce Vita as the CP7 Boys talk to Mo Coppoletta, an avid De Bethune collector, tattoo artist and designer, as well as the man and mind behind Italy’s newly launched and stylish independent watch brand, Gagà Laboratorio. Joining us from Verona in Italy, London-based Mo’s passion for style and flair in his debut watch, the Labormatic, is there for all to hear, but it’s his quest for the finest quality that only a good watch can have, that will win you over in this show. Like the great movie La Dolce Vita's director, Frederico Fellini, he shares that  “Sweet Life” passion for making sure that feeling good is a priority, with watches and just about anything meaningful to us as individuals in life, and to never compromise that feeling. You will get a sense of how he puts his heart and soul into everything he does, especially when designing the Labormatic. Design is one of the most important qualities of a watch, particularly in the creative independent watchmaking space, and we get to hear about the incredible design influences behind both versions of the new Gagà Laboratorio Labormatic, the Cinquanta and the Bauhaus. Discover how they are based on 1950s Milanese-inspired industrial designs, stylish Italian scooters,  Smeg kitchen appliances, the Porsche 356 and surprisingly San Giorgio fans! Listen in as we unravel many strands of these 20th century design icons from the 50s and 60s in the DNA of this remarkable watch. The boys first saw this watch at Geneva Watch Days 2024 and immediately felt compelled to talk to the man behind the vision, so buckle up and enjoy the ride as we revel in an Italian and CP7  “settimo cielo”.Don't forget to check out  our website at www.chronopassion7.com Or our Instagram @chrono_passion_7.Intro-Outro Music Credit "The Attic Is For Work" By Streamer Music Group - Copyright Free Music
