The magic of time is eternal. The magic of a perfect timepiece even more so... In this respect, a refined watch such as the new Velero GMT by Davidoff represents solidity, prestige and the future. At the same time, it knows how to display the fast pace of its wearer's dynamic daily life and accompany him in the rapid rhythm of his global lifestyle.
Zino Davidoff (1906 - 1994) was an advocate of the old, more peaceful world – a committed and active cosmopolitan, yet also a man ahead of his time. To this day, his name stands for pioneering spirit, sophistication and the art of living. His fascinating personality and captivating life continue to inspire the Swiss-based Davidoff Luxury Group, named after the man himself, as well as its entire portfolio.
The new Velero GMT was created for men who, like Zino Davidoff, are confidently rooted in their own time yet, at the same time, surpass it. As the most recent model in the Velero collection, the Velero GMT combines the technical precision of a Swiss watch movement with the cosmopolitan aesthetics of international design - in precisely the correct blend of classic elegance and modern functionality.
Its precious self-winding movement places the Velero GMT in the league of exclusive complications. As a special additional feature, the watch features a dual time display – ideal for all global players who travel frequently and are at home in at least two different time zones. Be it New York or Buenos Aires, Hong Kong or Sydney, Moscow or Tokyo – business trip or adventure, the Velero GMT keeps its wearer on course. All of which makes this the perfect watch for an age where anything is possible. For men who make everything possible. A watch Zino Davidoff himself would have worn …
The Velero GMT is available in four versions: with a round stainless steel or PVD 5N (plated) case, measuring 43 mm in diameter, with a black or a brown alligator-skin strap and with a black or ivory-coloured dial. All models feature a metal buckle and a date indicator.
For more information on the new Velero GMT watch, as well as on the complete Velero watch collection, please contact your country's press office at any time. We will of course provide images or the required timepieces for photo shoots.
