The Tour Auto is a revival of the Tour de France Automobile, which originated in 1899 under the patronage of the Automobile Club de France.
This race has witnessed remarkable moments in motorsport, featuring renowned car manufacturers like Ferrari, Porsche, BMW, and Jaguar, and legendary drivers such as Maurice Trintignant, Stirling Moss, Phil Hill, and Bernard Darniche competing on open roads.
With a route covering France's picturesque roads and notable racetracks, more than 250 teams now have the opportunity to showcase their driving skills to enthusiastic spectators.
Baltic, for the second consecutive year, serves as the Official Timekeeper, accompanying participants from Paris to Biarritz.
To mark this occasion, 500 Tricompax watches have been specially crafted in the historical colours of the Tour Auto, each paired with a Rally Timer (a stopwatch and dash clock).
The Baltic x Tour Auto Tricompax 2024 embodies the combination of tradition and modernity. The dial of this watch is presented in a matte light beige contrasted with white sub-dials with historic colour highlights.
The watch is equipped with a swiss made Sellita SW510-M caliber, giving the wearer around 60 hours of power reserve in a robust and reliable movement.
Each Tricompax watch will be presented with two Rally Timers (a Hanhart flyback chronograph and a dash clock) perfect for vintage car aficionados.
