Collezione timepieces are made to treasure, crafted with exquisite laser-engraved details, slick metallic finishes, and immaculately stitched leather straps.

Treasuring your timepiece goes beyond an appreciation of those details: optimise your round-the-clock experience with these top tips.

Remove before sleeping

If you're a restless sleeper, the chances of bumping your timepiece increase exponentially.

Removal before bed is a safe bet, and should feel much more comfortable.

Fasten in bed

After your morning snooze, don your timepiece while in bed or with your wrist over the sheets.

Pre-coffee mentality and morning light leads to unintended drops and knocks, best avoided by dressing your wrist over the duvet.

Adjust at your discretion

On the subject of timepiece wrist tightness, there's no definitive rulebook. Do whatever feels comfortable.

Just keep in mind that wearing it too loose could result in the face slipping around your wrist, making it more prone to unnecessary knocks.

Timepiece Anatomy

A little something to give you a helping hand on familiarising yourself with the anatomy of our timepieces.

5 reasons building a diverse timepiece collection will add intelligence and nuance to your style.

1. Span the spectrum

Having a range of colours to choose from when getting dressed means your timepiece will never clash with your clothes.

2. Articulate a style language

Men who wear timepieces that enhance their dress code garner a sense of respect.

3. Change it up

Why wear the same timepiece every day? Switching it up makes for more stimulating styling prospects.

4. Practice precaution

When dressing for an adventurous day out in nature or an intense workout, it's best to leave your most precious pieces behind.

5. Initiate plan B

If your go-to timepiece is in for a service, you'll require a timely backup.

Meet The Moment

In the same way you tailor a suit to the dimensions of your body, you need to calibrate your timepiece collection to clock in to your social and professional lifestyle.

When shopping Collezione timepieces, keeping these key factors in mind will ensure responsible spending.

Your day-to-day activities

How do you spend the majority of your time?

Your events calendar

What kind of events do you attend most often? Which timepiece best matches the dress code?

Your accessories rotation

Think about the accessories you already own, then consider a complimentary timepiece.

A leather strap pairs perfectly with matching belt and shoes, while bolder metallic finishes work to elevate casual sneakers or loafers.

Timing Your Dress Code

The definitive guide to finding a timepiece that matches the occasion.

Outdoor use and sportswear

Durability and functionality are of paramount importance when timing your athleisure outfit and being a spectator at sporting events so you can look the part in Collezione style.

This is also a moment to have a little fun with colour and channel your inner sports enthusiast at the races or grandprix.

Weekend casual

Look for a timepiece that reflects your personality while pairing seamlessly with your casual wardrobe.

This is your moment to choose something that feels exciting to you without having to live up to strict dress codes.

Office and business meetings

For interviews, go with something classic and refined. You want to make an elegant impression without being showy.

That same timepiece will serve you well in your everyday work environment. For more formal corporate meetings, match your timepiece to your suit and shoes.

Weddings and black tie events

Think understated, premium, and classic. Look for a slim design that will tuck under your cuff without creating any strain.

Remember that black is the most classy and timeless colour option.

1: Clean as often as possible

Use a soft, damp cloth to clean metal cases and straps. Avoid getting leather straps wet, as moisture can tarnish their appearance.

Hot water will damage gaskets regardless of a piece's water resistance. Rubber and fabric straps can be washed in soapy water.

2: Avoid magnets

Magnets at 60 Gauss (a fridge magnet is 50 Gauss) can bring your timepiece to halt. Avoid speakers, refrigerators, mobile phones and handbag magnets with strong magnetic fields.

3: Be aware of water resistance

Make sure you know which of your timepieces are splash proof and which ones are waterproof. If waterproof, be aware if the piece is designed for casual swimming or deep sea dives.

4: Protect the crystal

An obvious but valuable point: avoid banging the Mineral Glass in your timepiece against walls or anything else that may cause scratches.

5: Store your timepiece in its original box

When you're not wearing a specific timepiece, store it in the box in which you purchased it to avoid bumps and scratches.

6: Avoid extended exposure to sunlight

Long stints in direct sunlight can fade your timepiece's colour and shorten battery life.

7: Avoid contact with chemicals

Perfumes can weaken leather straps, causing discolouration and tears. Wait for your perfume or cologne to dry before strapping in a leather timepiece.

8: Don't open the timepiece - consult a professional

Opening a timepiece exposes the mechanisms to dirt and dust particles that can cause unnecessary damage. It's always safer to consult a professional.

9: Read the manual

Read your timepiece's accompanying manual with care. Make note of any key upkeep details listed inside.

Fabiani Collezione gold plated jewellery is an intelligent style investment: you can purchase a rotation of several sets at the same price you'd pay for one solid gold counterpart.

Ensuring the value of your investment means educating yourself on how to keep gold toned jewellery bright and unblemished. Here's a definitive guide.

	Care Personal care products like lotions and other cosmetics can stain gold plated jewellery. Once lotions and perfume have been absorbed into the skin, it's safe to don your gold plated jewellery. Be sure to remove it again before starting a swim or workout, as sweat can have a similar negative effect.

STORE Store your gold plated jewellery in a cool, dry place to maintain its brightness and shine. Place each piece in a separate zip-lock bag, squeezing before sealing to remove excess air. A lack of oxygen and humidity work to ensure the jewellery retains its shine

	CLEAN Mix a few drops of a mild dishwashing detergent with warm water. Rinse your gold plated pieces separately in the solution and allow them to air dry away from direct sunlight. Once dry, buff with a soft microfibre cloth to help retain the gold plate's strength and sheen. SHOP the collection

Fabiani Collezione stainless steel jewellery merges style with practically: they're low maintenance pieces that won't rust or corrode.

Still, there are three simple steps you can take to capitalise on the pieces' longevity, ensuring their heirloom status.


CLEAN Create a mixture of warm water and a mild dishwashing detergent in a small bowl. Dip a soft, lint-free cloth in the solution, wiping your stainless steel piece along its polish lines until clean. Wipe off the remaining soap with a moist cloth dipped in clean water. Dab any remaining water off the jewellery with a clean towel and allow to air dry.

	POLISH Polish your stainless steel pieces with jewellery polish or a polishing cloth to maximise shine. Toothpaste is a viable alternative for especially dirty spots, but be sure to use a non-whitening product that does not contain silica. Polish your jewellery with a soft cloth, rinsing thoroughly once done.

PROTECT While rust is not an issue with stainless steel, the metal is still prone to scratches. To avoid scratching, store and wear your pieces separately to minimise contact with other items that may damage them. In the event of a scratch, have the piece polished by a professional jeweller.

Cubic Zirconia was first discovered in 1937 in Germany, popularised in the '70s when scientists discovered a way to grow the crystal themselves.

Although Cubic Zirconia stones are synthetic, they do an excellent job of mimicking diamonds: even trained gemologists struggle to tell them apart with the naked eye.

When purchasing a Collezione piece punctuated with Cubic Zirconia, here's everything you need to know to ensure gleaming longevity.

CLEAN

Cubic Zirconia is not as hard as a diamond, and needs more frequent cleaning as a result. Every two to three months (depending on how often you wear it), clean the jewel with a soft brush, scrubbing to remove dirt with a mixture of warm water and a mild dishwashing detergent.

Once clean, rinse thoroughly in warm water and pat dry with a lint-free cloth, leaving the piece overnight to air dry.

	PROTECT Fabiani Collezione is designed in such a way that scratches on your Cubic Zirconia stones are unlikely. As long as you're storing your jewellery in separate zip-lock bags, you can rest easy. SHOP the collection

Bracelets and signet rings in the Fabiani Collezione are designed with Tiger's Eye, a golden-brown gemstone of fibrous quartz.

The stone has a silky sheen in natural light, creating an alluring contradiction between ideas of hard and soft. Here's everything you need to know about ensuring your Tiger's Eye stays in prime condition.

	CARE Tiger's Eye is a durable gemstone, though you should be aware of its sensitivity to acids found in household cleaning solvents and perfume. Don your Tiger's Eye Collezione piece only after your perfume or cologne has absorbed into your skin. Remove it before washing dishes or doing a workout.

Signet rings and bracelets in the Maranello Collezione are designed with Onyx, a gemstone variety of the mineral Chalcedony.

When purchasing a piece of Onyx jewellery it's important to understand the stone's properties in order to give it sufficient care.

CARE

Onyx can scratch, chip and crack relatively easily, so avoid bumping or wearing it in close proximity with other pieces.

Onyx is porous, absorbing liquid easily, so remove it when swimming, washing dishes or doing house work with chemicals as these can seep into the stone and cause it to change colour.

Store

Store Onyx Collezione pieces separately, away from other jewellery. Wrap them in a soft cotton or velvet cloth, and store in a jewellery box with separate compartments.

PROTECT

When cleaning your Collezione piece, consider the Onyx separately from the metal ring or leather and metal bracelet elements. Do not use chemicals or soap of any kind to clean the Onyx.

Instead, use a soft dry (or slightly moist) cloth to wipe away dirt. Clean the rest of the Collezione piece according to its metal profile, while keeping the Onyx dry and away from chemicals.

The safest option is a soft cloth dabbed in water, and a soft brush for hard-to-reach areas. When polishing, take care to avoid the Onyx.
