Gauging Time with Autodromo

Industrial designer by trade and gearhead by nature, Bradley Price is the man behind Officine Autodromo, makers of a gorgeous line of wristwatches that are heavily influenced by the gauges of golden-era sports and racing cars.

All feature lovely proportions, fine detailing, and high-quality construction. Standard models include the Vallelunga, Brescia, and Veloce, with a top-range, multi-function chronograph version of the Vallelunga also available.

Until recently, Autodromo watches exclusively used quartz movements, albeit high-quality Swiss-made ones. Now, however, they’re offering the Monoposto, their first automatic movement timepiece. Limited to just 500 individual pieces, it’s available with either a white or black face and with a brown or black leather strap.

Regardless of which model suits your personal style best, they’re all versatile enough to dress up or down, and are a tasteful and elegant way to literally wear your enthusiasm on your sleeve, but in a subtle way that only those in the know will recognize. Just try to remember to take it off before wrenching.
