Autodromo's first Automatic Watch: The Monoposto

Some of you are already in the know, but for the rest, I am very excited to tell you about our latest offering from Autodromo!  The new Limited Edition Monoposto is our very first watch with an Automatic mechanical movement, and is available in black or silver dial versions.  The entire edition is 500 pieces, and each comes individually numbered, and with a numbered collectors box.

As the name implies, the Monoposto is Autodromo's homage to the midcentury Grand prix car, and its dial is inspired by the dinner-plate sized tachometers found on single seaters of the 1950s.  A characteristic detail of the watch is the redline on the inside of the watch crystal, as a reference to the old school practice of painting or taping the rev limit onto the rev counter's glass directly to warn the driver when to shift.

 

The Monoposto is in stock and ready to ship for the holidays, priced at just $875 USD for the ultimate car guy gift under 1000 bucks!  www.autodromo.com
