Circuit Chronograph: Limited Anniversary Edition

DESCRIPTION

Hand assembled here in Austin, TX, the Circuit take its inspiration from the world famous Circuit of the Americas road course just outside Austin. This legendary track plays host to one of the most spectacular events in sport- the F1 Grand Prix. Only 50 total pieces will ever be produced, available in two dial options. 

I designed several Easter Eggs into each watch, including a 130 mark on the tachymeter to denote the 130 foot elevation change at the track, the chapter ring has an 11 degree slope to match the highest bank angle on the course, and the track outline is engraved into each case back crystal. If you are a DuFrane and F1 fan, this is the watch for you!

The Limited Anniversary Edition Circuit will deliver on the full titanium bracelet, as well as red curved end leather strap. The leather strap also includes a titanium buckle, with a DuFrane first micro-adjusting buckle! Additionally, the buckle is engraved with the DuFrane logo, and filled with Swiss SuperLumiNova in the same color as the 10:00 marker on the dial. The 10 glows a different color that the rest of the dial, to denote the special 10 year anniversary.
