In many ways, traditional watches and instrument panels of classic cars are designed following the same design philosophy...
This is something which Ralph Lauren is more than aware of. This recognized fashion designer presented a great collection of cars, which contains Ferrari and Lamborghini models, but also a fantastic 1938 Bugatti Type 75SC Atlantic Coupe. This gem of a car is worth $ 40 million and Ralph Lauren used it as the inspiration for Ralph Lauren RL Automotive Skeleton watch.
The best element of the design of this clock is a ring of Amboyna wood that surrounds the display. This material was very often used during the year 1930s as part of the dashboard in luxury vehicles, which is a clear sign that the Ralph Lauren just got his inspiration from vintage cars he has in his garage. Also, within the case, large oxidized hands are coated with Super-LumiNova coating, which further emphasizes the sophisticated look of this great clock.
Just like the Bugatti Type 57SC, RL Automotive Skeleton watch is hand-made, which is another indication of how much work has gone into making this masterpiece. Like all the other great things, this timepiece has a high price, we expect it to be somewhere around $ 35,000.
