Voyageur Collection Grand Prix Series
In 2014, the Voyageur Collection expands with its signature timepieces, featuring two faces in one reverso case, with the Grand Prix series. Inspiration from the collection comes from the story of an unlikely champion and a historic race.
On July 4, 1914 an unknown machinist, Christian Lautenschlager, hais from Germany and enters the last French Grand Prix before World War I. A crowd of over 300,000 assembled in Lyon to cheer on the contenders – vertitable Grand Prix royalty toe the line with Christian in the shadows as an almost laughable threat. Professionals, Sailer and Boillot go head to head for the duration of the race until fortunes turn and the unknown machinist makes history.
The Grand Prix 1914 celebrates the undaunting spirit of Christian – to challenge and overcome the odds.
