THE CALL OF THE DESERT
The brand, official timekeeper of the hardest endurance race on the circuit since 2019, unveils two new creations cut out for feats.
Like the powerhouse four-wheel drives flying high Rebellion‘s colors as they kick off the 46th edition of the Dakar, two 15-piece limited series were showcased before the first stage. This duo conjures up the legendary rally-raid through its one-of-a-kind design. In a nutshell, a black monochrome scenography is set off with dashes of gold adorning the time data displays. What’s more, Super-Luminova® makes these features ever-so easy to read. This highly-contrasting composition reigns in the impressive 48 mm-diameter carbon-crafted case of the Predator 2.0 3 Hands and the Predator Chronograph Dakar 2024. This composite, the rebel watchmaker’s signature, boasts high-tech and stylistic assets. Basically, the fiber is endowed with remarkable mechanical properties. It’s 75% lighter than steel and 10 times more resistant. The random markings obtained make these timepieces even more unique.
Swiss Made calibers, nestling under the honeycomb-patterned dials drive the ballet of the hands accurately. Both models enjoy the same power reserve of 48 hours. A sapphire-crystal caseback invites to admire some of the components, in particular the honeycomb-forged oscillating weight. And, to enhance their sporty look even more, the Predator 2.0 3 Hands and Predator Chronograph Dakar 2024 are worn on sandy-colored straps, a hue that’s a tip of the hat to the Saudi scenescapes the racers speed through. The call of the desert forever on wrists.
