Elliot Brown is building on its partnership with the Land Rover Trophy by launching a special watch for its participants and followers.
The Holton Land Rover Trophy Expedition watch takes design inspiration from the Land Rover Classic Defender Works V8 Trophy II, including a unique camouflage luminous dial carrying the Land Rover Trophy logo.
Only 1,000 are being made, priced at £595, each paying homage to seven decades of global Land Rover exploration and adventure.
“The latest Classic Defender Works V8 Trophy II was a hugely exciting project to work on and we’re delighted to see our creative elements incorporated into the Land Rover Trophy Expedition watch,” says Michael van der Sande, managing director, Jaguar Land Rover Special Vehicle Operations.
“Land Rover has been involved with global expeditions for more than seven decades and this partnership with official timekeeper Elliot Brown helps us celebrate our history with a unique, desirable and tough watch that echoes everything our Classic Defender Works V8 Trophy II is about,” he adds.
Ian Elliot, co-founder, Elliot Brown Watches, adds: “The Holton Professional is a watch with rare pedigree, designed for professional duty and widely chosen by adventurers, specialist military operators and emergency services. Developing the Holton Land Rover Trophy Expedition limited edition is one of the most enjoyable projects we have ever embarked upon, boasting many imaginative details that celebrate the exceptional nature of the Classic Defender Works V8 Trophy II vehicles.”
It comes in a closed back steel case protecting a Swiss Ronda three hander movement with Elliot Brown’s internal floating shock absorbers and is worn on a rubber strap.
