This watch is number 3 of a very Limited Chronoswiss Spyker Double 12 Timemaster Edition.Produced as a collaboration between Chronoswiss and Spyker Cars to compliment the ''Steampunk'' dashboard design that Chronoswiss designer Gerd-Rudiger Lang created for Spykers C8 Double12 R car back in 2004. You can see the aviation heritage in the design of the onion winder of the double12 watch echoed in the dashboard of the C8 and in our opinion a much cooler collaboration than many other more well known car and watch companies without naming names. Limited quantity produced and rarely seen available for purchase Gerd-R. Lang, founder and owner of the Munich-based watchmaking enterprise Chronoswiss, developed this noble timepiece's design to complement the sleek appearance of the newest Spyker sport car, which the Dutch automaker will begin to produce in 2006. The vehicle is equipped with the six-liter W12 engine from the Audi A8: this twelve-cylinder powerhouse generates maximal torque of 600 Nm and delivers 500 horsepower to the open-topped Spyker sport car. Unmistakable Chronoswiss characteristics also distinguish the Spyker wristwatch. Like nearly all other Chronoswiss watches, this one too has a grooved bezel. The dial's clearly legible displays are patterned after those found on other wristwatches in Chronoswiss' line of sport watches.  Designated by reference number CH 6433 SPY, and to optimize its legibility, the dial was given with a 24-hour display. The "12" is at the top of the dial, just like the sun in the sky at high noon. The "24" is at the position ordinarily occupied by the "6." The "16 hours" index is marked in red because the 24-hour Le Mans auto race begins and ends at 4:00 p.m.
