Racing Inspiration
The Le Mans is inspired by motorsports and racing chronograph watches from the 1970's. Remember 'Le Mans' with Steve McQueen? That's the movie that ignited this project.
Iconic Bi-Compax Chronograph
A 60-minute counter, sweeping seconds, applied indices, recessed subdials, piano black dial, and a matching-color date wheel are some of distinguishing elements of the Le Mans.
Styled after vintage racing watches, the Le Mans brings back the iconic bi-compax look in an up-to-date package.
Legendary Caseback
The most recognized racing wheel face in the world: the BBS™ with central lock. Here, as fitted on the Porsche 935, winner of the 1979 24h of Le Mans.
Italian Leather Racing Strap
We created the perfect wearing experience by using the finest Italian calf leather. The iconic racing strap, with the 3 large holes tapering down in diameter towards the buckle, is hand-crafted by some of the best leather artisans.
This highest quality leather will age beautifully and the patina it will develop over time will give it a unique character.
A Dependable Workhorse
The Miyota Calibre 6S21 powering the Le Mans is precise, accurate, and provides worry-free ultra-low maintenance. Get all the data you need at a glance with time, date, and chrono function. The firm and satsifying pusher clicks inspires confidence.
