Race ahead: Reservoir Idec Sport Edition 2020

Reservoir’s latest motorsport inspired timepiece offers a high-octane experience with a difference

Precision timekeeping is essential to the world of motor racing, and its little surprise that sport and watchmaking have long been closely intertwined.

A passion for the two is particularly evident in the creations of Reservoir, the brainchild of French businessman François Moreau who created the brand, in part, as a tribute to legendary race drivers of the past. It is an influence that particularly shines through in roadworthy timepieces such as the GT Tour collection.

To celebrate their partnership with the Idec Sport team, who will be participating in the famous Le Mans race, taking place on 19 and 20 September, Reservoir has created a special watch limited to 24 pieces.

To offer a true slice of racing history, each of the new Idec Sport Edition 2020 will be installed in the LMP2 Idec Sport racing car that will be competing throughout the weekend. And to seal the deal for true motorsport enthusiasts, the lucky 24 customers who will receive their watch in October will also be offered an invitation to attend the 24 Hours of Le Mans 2021, and experience being at the centre of the action by meeting the Idec Sport team in the paddocks.
