Frederique Constant Yacht Timer Regatta Countdown

The Yacht Timer Regatta has a built-in timer that counts down the critical 10 minutes before the sailing vessels set off for the race.

Regatta racers can use the countdown to find the best position for dashing out front based on the wind and the other vessels — and without ever having to go over the imaginary starting line. This is a tactical and crucial maneuver demanding a precision instrument that can be read at a glance since they have to keep raising and lowering the sails to hold position as close to this line as possible.

Technical Specifications:
The case, in stainless steel or in steel rose gold PVD, measures 42mm. It has a glass-box sapphire, a display back, and it is water resistant to 100 meters.

Dials can be had in silver or in navy blue with guilloché decoration and applied rose gold-plated luminous faceted indeces. Hand polished silver or rose gold-plated hour, minute, and orange seconds hand.
