RESERVOIR Launches Its First Collection<br />
www.reservoir-watch.com<br />
We got the first scoop of the car-inspired collection and it was pretty<br />
cool! The GT Tour Supercharged Sport caught our eye and is inspired<br />
by dashboard instruments capturing the essence of classic racing. The<br />
GT Tour displays central retrograde minutes, jumping hours at 6 and<br />
the power reserve (plus the date at 5 which is not shown on this<br />
prototype). Its engine is based on an ETA2824 movement, a reliable<br />
work horse combined with a proprietary module manufactured by<br />
Télôs, a movement designer owned by Frank Orny and Johnny<br />
Girardin, the men behind the Harry Winston Opus 14 and the<br />
Metamorphosis for Montblanc – among others.<br />
The collection showcases all the elegance of the materials and<br />
finishings so dear to cars in days gone by. The polished steel of the<br />
cases and the leather of the straps underpin what is the<br />
SUPERCHARGED style, recalling the chrome and velvet trimmings of<br />
the seat and the steering wheel, and even the thick leather driving<br />
gloves. Both models have an irresistible and palpable charm, with<br />
their time apertures (and red date display for one model), and are<br />
water-resistant to 50 metres.<br />
