Reservoir GT Tour Racing Watch

As pretty big watch aficionados here at The Coolector, we appreciate all manner of different timepieces but we’ve always got a particular soft spot for automotive-inspired offerings and we’ve not seen many better than the GT Tour Racing Watch from Reservoir Watches. Boasting a supremely stealthy carbon fibre dial, this classy-looking timepiece pays homage to the codes and the world of contemporary motor racing sport, whose associated advanced technologies are constantly evolving.

Priced at £4300, the GT Tour Racing Watch from Reservoir is one dapper and striking timepiece that will turn heads everywhere you go and will become one of the most important pieces in any watch collector’s lineup. This new, decidedly contemporary, version takes its design inspiration from the materials used in the world’s most powerful and robust racing cars – including Formula 1 cars – for which carbon is an essential material to achieve exceptional performances. And it just so happens to look great on a dial. Win, win.

The extremely unique dial is crafted entirely from woven carbon fibre, a design that gives the watch a strong and uncompromising sporty aesthetic. Worn with an automobile leather-style perforated black strap, the GT Tour Racing Watch from Reservoir is a tribute to the golden age of the car race and we’re loving the boldness of its visuals here at Coolector HQ.

Powered by the new caliber RSV-240 movement, a proprietary patented three-complication module coupled to a manufacture movement (LJP-G100 base) that expertly combines retrograde minute, jumping hour and a 56-Hour power reserve, the GT Tour Racing Watch from Reservoir is amongst the coolest looking and best performing automotive-inspired watches on the market. Each one is delivered in a prestigious wooden box with an additional NATO strap that will allow you to change up the look and feel of your timepiece effortlessly. What’s not to like?
