Pininfarina Hybrid Watches, made real by Globics.
Under a global brand-licensing agreement, Globics designs, engineers and manufactures hybrid smartwatches that carry the name of one of the world's most respected design houses, and live up to its standards.
Italian beauty that refuses to date.
Battista "Pinin" Farina founded Carrozzeria Pininfarina in Turin in 1930 to design and detail luxury, limited-run supercars. In the decades since, Pininfarina has become a global icon of Italian style, renowned for an extraordinary ability to create timeless beauty by blending aesthetics and functionality, innovation and highly skilled craftsmanship.
That philosophy is inherited directly from its automotive origins: combining the perfect shape with the perfect functionality, the rule of design that creates timeless masterpieces.
"Combining the perfect shape with the perfect functionality, this is the rule of design that creates timeless masterpieces."Paolo Pininfarina
One design philosophy, across every discipline.
From supercars and yachts to towers, public spaces and collectible objects, Pininfarina shapes movement into beauty wherever it works.
Design that defines skylines and wrists alike.
The Fortaleza tower in Brazil shows the scale of Pininfarina's ambition. Our task was to honour that same discipline at a fraction of the size, on the wrist, every day.
How we created the Pininfarina Hybrid range.
Globics partnered with Pininfarina to translate a century of design heritage into a hybrid smartwatch collection, owning every stage from first sketch to global fulfilment.
-
01
Interpreting the heritage
We studied the proportions, surfacing and detailing that make a Pininfarina object unmistakable, then distilled that language into a case, dial and strap system built for the wrist.
-
02
Engineering the hybrid
Our engineers married a precision analogue movement with a connected sensor stack, hidden beneath a classic dial, so the technology serves the timepiece rather than overwhelming it.
-
03
Crafting the materials
Surgical-grade 316L stainless steel, sapphire crystal and genuine Italian leather, finished to the standard a name like Pininfarina demands, with battery life measured in weeks rather than hours.
-
04
Building the experience
We developed a proprietary Pininfarina Hybrid Watches companion app in-house for iOS and Android, then handled manufacturing at scale and distribution to markets worldwide.
Designed in the wind tunnel, worn on the wrist.
The same obsession with aerodynamics and proportion that defines a Pininfarina car flows into every line of the Hybrid range.
A collection that moves with you.
"Globics has perfectly interpreted our heritage, mixing it with state-of-the-art technology to create a beautiful, innovative collection of hybrid watches."
