The relationship between ceramic watch and car manufacture

It has been a long tradition among carmakers to celebrate their anniversaries with a timepiece that is representative of the years leading up to the event.So,I saw a car manufacture celebrating its anniversary or with partnership with other companies with a special ceramic watch is not Strange thing.

The ceramic watch is dubbed'Tachoscope'and it highlights brand car Design exterior with precision C.125 caliber mechanism and a few unique functions like the arrangement where only the minute hand is connected to the dial's center.Two individual inset dials provide for the functions of the hour and the second, providing extra space for the stop-watch and tachometer function of the timepiece. So, this ceramic watch does not only measure time, but also speed, an appropriate representation of this car manufacture. More details and photos after the jump! Also because cars and watches share special elements of precision, style and function, both have also shared a long history together. This cannot be truer than in the Meccaniche Veloci Quattro Valvole CCM,a carbon-ceramic watch created in partnership with Brembo,the famous brake manufacturer.

The ceramic watch highlights four independent Swiss movements set into an ultra-modern carbon ceramic face combining form with function in agreement to the four-valve configuration of current racing machines. The crown of the ceramic watch is made from hand-polished ceramic and the face comes with two classic colors, including black and white.To round off the design,the ceramic watch comes with black alligator hide or modern polymer.The limited edition timepieces are built exclusively in Italy with the carbon ceramic face, for example, custom cut with a 5,000 bar waterjet, consequently the finished product comes with a price tag that agrees with its exclusive characteristic,beginning at $15,500. In spite of its intricate and modern construction the operation of the ceramic watch is strikingly simple. For instance,winding is done by a simple wrist action, and a single button controls the adjustment for each individual ETA 2671 Swiss mechanical function.
