A contemporary take on a British motoring classic Paying tribute to the Jaguar D-type racing car Presented in a 43mm steel Trip-Tick® case secured with a blue leather racing strap Driven by the beautifully finished mechanical BE-50AE movement for flawless performance Limited to 300 pieces INSPIRED BY A RACING ICON Bremont’s Motorsport collection pays tribute to the beautiful race cars made by the icons of British Engineering – from Williams F1 to Jaguar and Norton. Designed in partnership with companies who share the manufacturer’s ethos of high quality craftsmanship and a classic aesthetic, the collection is characterised by subtle design elements inspired by vintage motorsport. One of the most iconic cars in racing history, the Jaguar D-type was designed to take on Ferrari and win the legendary Le Mans 24 hour race, making its debut in 1954. A new addition to the Jaguar range, this special edition D-type model pays homage to the Ecurie Ecosse racing team, who won Le Mans 24 hours in both 1956 and 1957 with the D-type. Limited to just 300 pieces. EXQUISITE STYLING This limited edition timepiece is presented in a 43mm stainless steel Bremont Trip-Tick® case, with a large exhibition sapphire crystal case back, which reveals the beautifully finished movement within. The blue dial features brushed nickel sub-dials, the heritage Jaguar logo, and a tachymeter dial ring, while the crown has the original Dunlop tyre tread etched into it and the heritage Jaguar logo finished in enamel on its end. The mechanical BE-50AE movement offers flawless performance, a 42-hour power reserve, and features an intricate Jaguar steering wheel-inspired rotor. A blue Jaguar leather strap completes the look.
