I'd guess it was around 1992-94.

Tommasini's are fantastic bikes, even the mid range bikes ride amazingly. A Tommasini is like take a combo of Cinelli, Ciocc and Guerciotti, extracting the essence and making a bike that takes the raciest characteristics of those bikes and makes them work together.

Enjoy.
I am lucky, all you see is greasy basement gunk, the frame has cleaned up amazingly well, as have the components I have done so far. I was leaning to it being a 93 so thank you for that confirmation.
I am really looking forward to trying this bike, and will follow up with pics and thoughts
