The Aston Martin Asia Cup (AMAC) warmly welcomes luxury watchmakers, Graham as the series’ Official Watch Sponsor.
George Graham (1673-1751) is often referred to as the ‘father of the chronograph’. As the inventor of the dead-beat cylinder escapement, the first wall chronograph and the mercury pendulum, it was his expertise and foresight that saw him commissioned by the Greenwich Royal Observatory to create the Master Clock used by astronomers.
Today, the brand boasts contemporary and inventive design, function and finish as they create what is aptly termed ‘wrist machines’. Graham, ‘the British brand handcrafted in Switzerland’, are ideal partners for the Aston Martin Asia Cup which is set to bring Aston Martin’s ‘power, beauty and soul’ to the race circuits of the Far East in this exciting, new Championship. Distinctive and sporty, Graham are set to be a perfect fit for the series.
Graham join Michelin (tyres), AMC (media), Racing Logistics International (hand tools) and Dura (workshop systems) as series partners for the Championship which sees its first round take place at Shanghai on 24-25th May.
