A collaboration between respected watch powerhouse Blancpain and respected supercar powerhouse Lamborghini brings us the limited edition (300 pieces) Trofeo Super.
The Trofeo Super is a beautiful water resistant (up to 100m) watch that has been carefully hand-crafted to perfection. The strap is made of alacantra, the same fabric as the seats in a Lamborghini Gallardo, and the self-winding movement system is coated with NAC, an electroplating treatment that blackens the bridges and the main plate (gives up to 40 hours reserve power).
The watch was born to accentuate the partnership between the fashion and car moguls that will stage races at 6 different tracks throughout Europe involving 30 different Lamborghinis.
