A TIME WHEN THE BATTLE BETWEEN MAN & MACHINE REACHED ITS ZENITH
No chicanes on the Mulsanne straight, No problem that every boy’s racing hero smoked Marlboro red and partied hard. No issue with a horrendously injured legend returning to the pit six weeks after being engulfed in a fire ball at Nürburgring
This was passion, this was endurance, this kept us awake at night dreaming of a podium finish!
Humble Beginnings
TWO FRIENDS - ONE VISION
Two boys who revelled in the thrill of motor sport in the 1970s and 1980s when heroes were tested like never before and never again. One moment of madness that became a passion.
TURISMO WATCH COMPANY
Quentin and Andy share a love and respect for friendship, good food, fine wine, our iconic boy hood heroes and of course beautiful watches, or as Andy would say master horology!
EVERY SECOND COUNTS
LIFE AT THE RED LINE
Our heroes led a life at the red line, a place where every second counts between joy and despair - victory and loss. In the search for speed, to be the first, to be the fastest, we witnessed a passion play like no other. Something brutal, yet beautiful.
A sometimes-desperate journey into an unknown place.
A duel with wafer thin odds - a gamble that took your breath away.
Humble Beginnings
THE NAMES OF MANY HEROES REMAIN UNSUNG
And those who have perished whilst fighting machine, fatigue, or inclement weather are often lost to the mists of time.
Watches made in Switzerland have been the standard for superlative excellence for the last century.
Such masterpieces are adroit to our vision - to share the lesson that only those who have lived a life at the red line would truly understand:
When every second counts every detail matters.
