The Grand Prix is their flagship statement piece: named after one of the earliest and most prestigious motor racing venues, it's a watch that wears its ambition on its wrist. \u003cstrong\u003eReference GP104-0045\u003c\/strong\u003e is a limited production example, and surviving examples in this condition are increasingly hard to find.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDesign \u0026amp; Dial\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003e47.1mm\u003c\/strong\u003e stainless steel case receives a full \u003cstrong\u003egunmetal DLC\/PVD coating\u003c\/strong\u003e, giving it a stealth, almost industrial presence on the wrist.
