It's a nice frame, probably late 70's early 80's, which makes it a little earlier than most of the Tommasinis you run across. At the time, I don't believe Tommasini was making a wide model range, so it's surely a high-end frame - the actual model name really doesn't mean a whole lot. It's not at all odd that it has no serial number, by the way - a lot of top Italian builders (Masi, De Rosa, Colnago) weren't using them at that time.
