Description
Drive Time, Sea Time, and Air Time comprise the first horological lifestyle trilogy to survey high-performing timepieces through the lenses of the cars, ships, and planes that inspired them. With curated new watches to reflect ever-more sophisticated time-pieces and horological expertise, this deluxe third edition of Drive Time is a modern, distinctive update to the series. Housed in a handsome slipcase, Drive Time Deluxe Edition focuses on the iconic racing chronographs of the mid-twentieth century, such as the Rolex Daytona, Omega Speedmaster, and TAG Heuer Carrera and Monaco, through current timepieces from Chopard Mille Miglia, Breitling by Bentley, Porsche Design, and IWC Mercedes-Benz AMG collections. In celebrating two great twentieth-century inventions the mass-produced automobile and the wristwatch Drive Time is perfect for lovers of timepieces, cars, and deluxe style.

"The coolest and best watches ever made for driving, racing and motorcycling." -MAXIM"There is perhaps no other author who has neither the encyclopedic-like understanding of the long-standing yet ever-evolving intersections and connections between time-telling and fueled motion nor one with his finger so firmly on the pulse of current developments in those same areas." -WATCHIONISTA.COM
