Visitors to the Range Rover booth at the 2017 Geneva
Motor Show will not only see the new Velar, but also a special wristwatch made
to match the new luxury SUV. Co-designed and engineered by Land Rover and
Zenith, the Chronomaster El Primero Range Rover Velar Special Edition has been
created to celebrate the fourth installment of the Range Rover family.
Its name dates back to 1970, when the original Velar
prototype came out, and it represents the second product in the long-term
partnership between the two companies.
It features a custom ceramised aluminum case, a high
beat movement of 36,000 vibrations per hour, a 42mm case finished in
high contrast burnished copper, brushed slate grey dial, three chronograph
sub-dials, date indicator, and robust winding crown paired with two functional
push pieces.
The strap was made from rubber and coated with dark
grey diamond-perforated calfskin, which is the same material featured in
acclaimed Range Rover interiors. Flip it over and you will see the Range Rover
and Velar names engraved.
