Teaming up with Abarth to release a limited-‐edition timepiece,
Bernard Richards Manufacture (BRM) is honoring the car’s history and heritage with a
customized chronograph. Driven by craftsmen and engineered for exceptional performance,
BRM watches exemplify technical precision, and the V12-‐44-‐BG-‐Abarth 595 – a tribute to
the 50th anniversary of the Italian label’s racing colors – underscores the passion for
motor sports that defines both brands.
In addition to the special model, BRM is celebrating the country’s automotive legacy as a sponsor for the Concorso Italiano in Monterey Bay, Calif., on August 16. The watchmaker will host award-‐winning driver Simona de Silvestro for an exclusive autograph session during the event, in recognition of her appointment to the Sauber F1 Team and her partnership with BRM; fans are invited to meet, greet and congratulate de Silvestro at BRM’s Concorso display.
Developing diverse, global relationships with track mavericks, BRM introduces outstanding,
one-‐of-‐a-‐kind timepieces and small series every year, and the Abarth collection is
complemented by high-‐profile collaborations with partners including Marco Andretti,
FORZA CCR, Gulf Oil, Historic Sportscar Racing, Simon Pagenaud, the Pirelli World Challenge
and many more. Tap into BRM’s online configurator to explore the company’s deliberately
racy watches, and go inside the enhanced Abarth edition to find out why the piece is fast
becoming a modern icon.
