GRAHAM - Silverstone Vintage 30 - Back to Vintage
No trophies, no awards, no podium, only gentlemen driving. With beautiful lines and shapes, the GRAHAM Silverstone Vintage 30 pays tribute to the origin of racing, to our passion for tracks and beautiful mechanics.
Powered by an automatic bi-compax chronograph, the new Silverstone collection bears the colors of a certain vintage. GRAHAM makes the experience legendary with new wrist machines that preserve the pure spirit of car technology and watchmaking refinement.
Racing is something that you live, not just view. We are not talking about racing as we call it today. We are talking about genuine racing. The spirit that led the brilliant late 19th century engineers to create petrol-fuelled machines and race with them. A time when the pleasure to drive was stronger than any competition. The only focus was the track, the car, and the sense of a job well done.
In the beginning, the rules of racing were completely different from what they are nowadays. Can you imagine that the main criteria to be able to participate was to have a vehicle with at least three wheels! Cars and mechanics were at the center, no matter the number of wheels. Technical improvements were the priority for all. An incredible challenge at that time which was pure mechanics.
Our traditional motorsport line has been designed and created in this frame of mind. The Silverstone Vintage 30 is streamlined and aesthetically refined to achieve genuine aerodynamics and technology. GRAHAM wanted to get back to racing origins and put its watches at the center of the track. As carefully as the cars were built, the Silverstone Vintage 30 watch has been created according to the codes of vintage racing and with respect for each part. The “Clous de Paris” decorated bezel, the thin shaped hands and the beige, brown and off-white colors have been elaborately added to the watch. They reflect the desire to preserve the race spirit and primary values.
The GRAHAM Silverstone Vintage 30 is in a non-competition race which rewards watchmaking savoirfaire and spectators.
Main features also include:
47 mm steel case, caliber G1734, automatic chronograph, Date at 7 o’clock, 27 jewels, 28’800 A/h (4Hz), Incabloc shock absorber, 48 hours power reserve, black or off-white dial, Steel bezel with “Clous de Paris” high grip pattern, domed sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating on both faces, see-through sapphire crystal case back, integrated light brown leather strap.
