The Venezianico Redentore Levius is a new release focusing on extreme lightness, achieved through a 38mm Grade 5 titanium case that weighs only 48 grams complete. It features a hand-engraved "Zefiro" guilloché dial created by artisan Linda Renzetti on a 19th-century rose engine and is powered by the Italian-made, hand-wound V5000 caliber. This release highlights Venezianico's commitment to domestic watchmaking and offers a blend of neoclassical design with modern, lightweight materials.

The watch's name, Levius, is derived from the Latin word for light or delicate, reflecting its featherweight design.
The case alone weighs 12.9 grams, with the complete watch head weighing 40 grams before the strap.
The dial's "Zefiro" pattern is hand-engraved by artisan Linda Renzetti on an antique rose engine lathe, ensuring no two dials are identical.
The V5000 movement is a collaborative effort between Venezianico's Technical Director Andrea Menegazzo and Fausto Berizzi, manufactured by OISA.
The movement features radial Côtes de Genève, mirror-polished anglage, and hand-applied micro-perlage, visible through a sapphire display caseback.
The Zefiro pattern on the dial is inspired by Zephyrus, the gentle wind of classical mythology.
The watch's proportions are tied to the Redentore line's neoclassical inspiration, featuring clean lines and soft, sweeping forms.
The dial's guilloché pattern radiates outwards in overlapping currents, catching light differently based on the viewing angle.
