PRODUCT: New Limited-Edition Manthey Racing Watch


















Christmas is coming – so why not ask your loved ones for one of these lovely new watches from Green Hell 911 dominators, Manthey Racing? 
It's a fresh designed, limited chronograph of Manthey-Racing described as "a sporty and elegant timekeeper from the 24 h record winner team."
This is the second time the Nürburgring-based Porsche racing team has created an exclusive timekeeper with stopwatch function. And the last watch – put forward in 2011 – was sold out within a few weeks. And with only 300 units of this version being sold, expect the same again… so be quick if you want one!
Manthey say: "On the racetrack the relation between speed and time is a special one – it decides on victory or defeat at long last. Furthermore it is extremely important for the strategy, particularly in long-distance racing. Much attention was given to the esthetic design as one already imposes at first sight. A case made of brushed stainless steel, a genuine leather bracelet with in coloured ornamental stitchings as well as two engraves – the Manthey chronograph is impressive because of function as well as look."
And boss and Ring racing legend, Olaf Manthey adds: "This is where it comes full circle. On the racetrack the performance counts on the relation to timing. And only those who know how to unite
speed and reliability will have the lead at the end.”
The brushed stainless steel, mineral glass and black dial watch is capable of 10 bars underwater pressure, to 100m depth and features a high-quality CITIZEN quartz movement made in Japan. There are also four indicators for counting seconds, minutes and hours as well as the date display. And the stop function is controlled through two buttons which are upper and below the crown. While a shining mass on the indicators allows reading the time without problems in the dark. It also comes with a two year warranty and, naturally the Manthey Racing logo.
The exclusive watch comes in an exclusive present box with Manthey-Racing logo and is being sold at a price of €169, excluding shipment charges. It can be ordered via the Manthey online shop.
