Tufina Heritage: A family bond with time!

You can easily read about our family's beginnings two centuries ago in the Wikipedia page ofTirana Clock Tower. Since then, we have moved through countries and continents. Our love for watches & time has always remained a constant. We thought it could be nice to show some of our personal family photos through the generations.

1. Tirana Clock Tower - Clock fully build by Tufina in 1822.
