A visit at Pita's workshop in Barcelona.

 
 By: foversta : October 9th, 2010-14:21
When you are in Barcelona, some places don't be missed: the Sagrada Familia, the Casa Batllo... and Aniceto Pita's workshop! I had the chance to spend a half day with Aniceto and his son Daniel; I would like to share with you the report of this visit. Las...  

At last!...

Thank you very much, FX, for giving exposure to Pita's work. Like Kiu Tai Yu, Pita is an AHCI member whose work is too often overlooked, it seems; perhaps because he is not in the 'mainstream'. A selfish question: do you happen to know what languages are ... 

Thanks Foversta; will try again.... [nt]

Hi all, As FX says, Daniel speaks a very good English, but Aniceto also manages well in German. All the best PS: FX, I'm awfully sorry for not meeting you at Pita's

Cool thanks

wonderful report. Had once owned an RE2--ultimately it was the right decision to release, but i do miss it at times. A very distinctive watch....

Moon time?

Thanks for a fascinating report, but I can't figure out how to read the time on the "Sol e Luna". What time is it showing? A

...since I first heard about them a few yrs ago. Really interesting to see the workshop etc, thank you. I still love the (old) Carrousel the most.

Really fascinating report, this is one very creative

Pita will finish an order for how long ?

It depends the type of watch and the personalization.

I prefer for this type of question that you ask directly Daniel through their website or their facebook page. Thanks ! Fr.Xavier

Pita is an interesting watchmaking

occassions, but alas never a response. Love their work and wanted to consider him for a project, but ultimately moved on. Still enjoy viewing their timepieces though. Thanks for shedding light on these timepieces. Darren

Pita is a very innovative watchmaker

Pita is a very innovative watchmaker. He is not limited to placing parts manufactured by others. Merit that everything designed and constructed in his workshop. Thanks, F.X.

Love that workshop!

...my kind of place. Plus the Butterfly is great, too. Ahhh, 2 years since I've been to Barcelona...must work out how to get back. Thank you, foversta.

Very interesting post

Many of the watches shown are not able to show time with accuracy meaning no seconds on many and 10 minute increments on some single hand pieces. Do you think that has any relationship to Spanish culture/lifestyle? In my brief time in Barcelona/Madrid/Sev... 

Thank you for the report!

The Minimal models are interesting. Super clean dial. Love to see one in flesh some day.

Very interesting!

Very interesting! Thank you for the introduction to this unique brand Foversta! I went and inspected the Pita Watches website and it's a very interesting watch company! Looking forward to hearing more and seeing more unique timepieces from Barcelona!

Very cool, and great pictures!

I like the handcrafted and unique look of these watches. The single-handed piece is my favorite. I recently saw the Oceana at a GTG and it was a totally cool watch -- huge but awesome! I love the rudimentary depth gauge on the Oceana. These PITA watches h...
