The British have always had an obsession with breaking the land-speed record. After many attempts, it was Lydston Hornsted who, on June 4th 1914 at Brooklands, broke the land-speed record. His achievement stood for nearly eight years and put his name in the history books. The Gamages Of London Limited Edition Hand Assembled Hornsted Momentum Automatic Rose men’s watch pays tribute to this achievement that saw him reach 124.09mph. It boasts 163 part 20 jewel hand assembled automatic movement that powers the Day, Date and Month dials with a 24 Hour Counter. These details represent the instruments Hornsted has in front of him during his record-breaking activity, while the navy blue dial is enclosed with a rotating tachymeter bezel that is wholly appropriate for celebrating Hornsted’s life, measuring speed based on time and distance. The stainless steel caseback is engraved with the Gamages Of London logo and its rose gold IP case is secured by a rose gold stainless steel bracelet. These complete the timepiece and hint at the riches and success that Hornsted achieved simply by believing that he could.
