Description
One chronograph. One victory. One legacy.
Honoring the original presented by Enzo Ferrari to Gigi Villoresi following his victory at the 1951 Syracuse Grand Prix, this reimagined Lowenthal timepiece embodies the enduring connection between fine watchmaking and gentleman racing. Each Lowenthal Caliber 2518 movement requires more than 100 hours of hand-finishing, assembly, and regulation of the period-correct Valjoux 23 redesigned movement.
This inaugural timepiece consists of 48 individually numbered timepieces:
- 12 pieces in Avorio Bianco over Grigio
- 12 pieces in Azzurro La Plata over Grigio
- 12 pieces in Palladio Verde over Grigio
- 12 pieces in Oro Metallizzato over Grigio
