Ascari Monza Two Tone Green

The Ascari Chronograph Collection is more than just a tribute to a legendary racer – it’s a celebration of an era when heroes like Alberto Ascari redefined what it meant to push the limits of human ability and machine. Ascari, Ferrari's only Italian World Champion in Grand Prix history, wasn’t just a driver – he was an unstoppable force, a man with the precision of a master craftsman and the daring spirit of a warrior. 

Enzo Ferrari once said that when Ascari was leading, it was "virtually impossible to overtake him." That’s because Ascari wasn’t just racing; he was commanding the track, bending it to his will with every turn. In the 1950 Monaco Grand Prix, Ferrari’s first World Championship podium was delivered by Ascari, a moment that would set the stage for his reign in motorsport. And when he crossed the finish line at the 1952 Belgian Grand Prix, two minutes ahead of the competition, it was more than a victory. It was a statement – this man was untouchable.

From that win onward, Ascari claimed an awe-inspiring streak, securing the World Championship and going on to win nine consecutive races, a record that would stand for decades. In today’s era of high-tech racing, it’s hard to imagine the grit and endurance it took to dominate the sport in the 1950s, when races were longer and fraught with the unknown. Even Sebastian Vettel, who matched Ascari’s nine-win record in 2013, acknowledged that Ascari’s feat remains untouchable: "You can’t really compare it... His record still stands out a lot."

To mark the anniversary of Ascari’s first historic win at Monza, we’ve crafted timepieces that don't just tell time – it tells of his remarkable story. Every detail of the Ascari Chronograph reflects the meticulous precision with which he drove, the courage it took to face down impossible odds, and the legacy he left on the track. This is more than a watch; it’s a tribute to a champion who not only raced but lived with an unwavering pursuit of excellence.

Just as Ascari’s driving style was a blend of artistry and skill, these timepieces encapsulates his journey, inviting you to wear a piece of that history on your wrist. Each time you glance at it, remember – this is not just about time, it’s about capturing a spirit that goes beyond the hands of the clock, a legacy that lives on in every heartbeat.
