Onarato Comitti travelled to London from the Lake Como area of northern Italy. He was a skilled instrument maker with a heritage that can be traced back to Evangelista Torricelli, a student of Galileo, who made the first mercurial barometer in 1643. He sought his fortune in the most advanced industrial nation in the world and established his workshops in Clerkenwell, the centre for instrument and clock making in London.
More than 170 years later, Comitti is still a family-owned business, run by the fifth generation, which remains true to the founding principles of Onorato Comitti and continues to maintain the company's international reputation for luxury timepieces in the finest traditions of English clock making.
