Messerschmitt Radiant Blue Dial Special Edition Quartz Dress Watch #KR200-BDBL

Messerschmitt Radiant Blue Dial Special Edition Quartz Dress Watch #KR200-BDBL

This new Messerschmitt special edition watch is designed to pay homage to the rare and short lived Messerschmitt KR200 three wheeled automobile that went on sale in Germany in 1955. To promote the car, a special edition model was run at the Hockenheimring to set a 24-hour speed record and it broke 22 international speed records in its class, including the 24-hour speed record, which it set at 103 km/h. The car was discontinued in 1964. The KR200-BDBL watch features a dome mineral crystal, a beautiful radiant blue dial with silver hands and hour markers, a date window at 3:00, and a 38.5mm stainless steel case with a screw-in case back. The watch is powered by a Swiss Ronda 515 quartz movement and it comes on a matching deep blue leather strap. Includes a gift tin with a rendering of the KR200 car on the top.
