Rebellion Timepieces with Formula 1 Team Manor Racing | Wraith Limited Edition
Never has an automotive adventure in the F1 world been so spicily accessible: All it takes is a few clicks on the official websites of REBELLION TIMEPIECES and MANOR RACING to access a distillate of independent Swiss mechanical watchmaking combined with the start-up vim of a British F1 team.
What does this look like in real life? A chronograph, both virile and rebellious, born of genuine motor sports atmo, molded for victory in a spirit of no compromise and refusal to round off any angles. The watch is all dressed up in Manor Racing colors. It features a tachometric scale, a chassis in grade-5 titanium, a 48-hour power reserve, plus unfettered ambitions. So it can also be approached by way of the web, through a secure channel. And before injecting some adrenaline into your daily life, this superb timepiece will be engaging in mediagenic laps on the wrists of the drivers from the young British stable.
A tight partnership with Manor Racing
These two were meant to be. Imbued, as they are, with the impulse to compete and win in a spirit of joy and good humor that shuttles between lust for life and the desire to rumble, the independent Swiss watch brand, REBELLION TIMEPIECES, and the new British team, MANOR RACING, have shown up on the F1 stage. The identity of the race’s official timekeeper is visible on the back of the drivers’ gloves, whereas the logo of the only watch brand with its own automobile stable – including drivers, performances and podiums – appears on the mirrors of the racecars.
At the operations HQ of the MANOR RACING center in Banbury, Great Britain, and in the garages of the twenty-one scheduled grand-prix events, large mural clocks keep time. Even more enthralling are those REBELLION chronographs dedicated specifically to the MANOR RACING stable that the drivers running in the 2016 races are wearing on their wrists. Obviously, the heat of the races and the exhilaration brought about by the passions felt in times of high acceleration also come with a generous dose of mutual respect.
The YouTube video, speed and precision
The tightly-knit alliance between an independent watch brand, REBELLION TIMEPIECES, and an F1 racecar stable, MANOR RACING, does deserve being celebrated in pictures. There it is on YouTube, a sequence of fast scenes, jarring, synchronized images. The rhythm, the performance at the end of the sequence, the precision coming in the line of sight … These visual gems produce the scent of asphalt, of white-hot pneumatics, and of beautiful mechanics. Pulsations in sync with the incredible regularity of precision. Rough and tumble careening, all on film … a lot to discover!
