01-MISSION
While evoking the logic and authority of renowned artists’ archives or of the finest high-end watchmaking maisons, Archivio Pucci Papaleo was set up as a private and independent initiative with a highly ambitious purpose: to create an Archive by recording and meticulously documenting, through a professional Photographic Dossier, only those vintage timepieces considered of great collectible value, according to the personal and discretionary opinion of Pucci Papaleo or of other connoisseurs appointed by the Archive.

04-UTILITY
A key and innovative element of the Archive is the creation of a Photographic Dossier, providing an unalterable visual testimony as well as an exact date. The images realised by our photographers will crystallise the identity of the timepiece at the time of its archiving and will also offer a permanent and verifiable reference point over time.
