PARIS – Bell & Ross Time Instruments was on hand for year number 27 of the International Automobile Festival in Paris, France on January 25. The watch maker was there to present the Palme d’Or award and show off its exclusive watch collection.

This year the Festival was held at the luxurious Hotel des Invalides, near the famous Dome of the church right next door. The Festival is held to show off new concept cars from different manufacturers and to celebrate automotive innovation. Bell & Ross were there to strut their stuff along side auto manufacturers with their new exclusive line of watches.

The watch company also unveiled something that France had never seen; a new kind of item thatBell & Ross is not know for, a Harley Davidson. Bell & Ross teamed up with Shaw Harley Davidson and created the Nascafe Harley Davidson bike. The motorcycle has won many Custom Harley Davidson championships in the US and was well received by everyone at the International Automobile Festival.

The Festival also bring out an exclusive watch collection from Bell & Ross each year. This year the watches were on display and available for purchase to anyone with the inclination to own such a luxurious timepiece.

Of course Bell & Ross was not only there to have fun and show off their award winning Harley, they had an award to present. CEO of Bell & Ross, Carlos A. Rosillo, presented the Palme d’Or to the Red Bull Racing F1 team who took the 2011 Championship title won by German driver Sebastien Vettle. The team’s owner, Dieter Mateschitz met Rosillo on stage to accept the award for his team.

French driver for the Citroën World Rally Team Sebastien Loeb was also presented with an award. Loeb has won the World Rally Championship (WRC) a record eight times in a row.

Rosillo is also a member of the jury which decided on 14 prizes championing the work of companies and people including the Palme d’Or were handed out at the Festival. A little more than 600 people attended the event in Paris.

The event celebrated 2011s innovators in the automotive field. The new years concept cars are unveiled and any new idea that involves automobiles will be brought to the floor. It has become a place where the future of the industry is born each year anew.

Does she like expensive jewelry??? Does she wear a watch??? Personally, I wouldn’t find value in a $ 1K watch (the one I got for $ 18 tells time just fine, and is real cute) so it wouldn’t suit just any woman…you know her, so you should know what she likes…I’ve never heard of that brand, so can’t say if it’s a good brand or not (but IMO, no watch is worth that much)…

KickStarter is doing a lot for time-keeping, and today’s find is no exception.  Deisgner Scott Thrift has come up with The Present, an annual clock that tells the story of the seasons using subtle gradients of pure color to mark the Equinoxes & Solstices throughout the years.  

The Present contains a custom microprocessor that was commissioned to accurately turn hours into months. The annual hand takes an entire year to complete a single clockwise rotation.  

As with any Kickstart project, you can make donations via easy-to-use portal, and a donation of $ 120 will get you The Present of your own.  Check it out here.

There has never been a truer connection between real auto racing and a Swiss Made watch company than that of Heuer in the 1970s.  Long before the era of sponsorship deals, there was one watch that was the de facto choice of all F1 racers – the Heuer chronograph. 

Today, on the birthday of legendary Porsche driver Jo Siffert, we show you his watch, the Heuer Autavia reference 1163T.  The “Siffert” Autavia (shown above) differs from all other Autavias with a crisp white dial and bright blue seconds hand and markers.  The Siffert Autavia is one of the most desirable vintage Heuers in the world (hell, even Jerry Seinfeld wears one). 

Siffert was a close friend of Steve McQueen’s and is often credited with convincing him to wear a Heuer during the filming of LeMans.  McQueen was also known to have worn a Siffert Autavia from time to time (as seen in picture below).

So today, on Jo Siffert’s birthday, sit back and enjoy the beauty of the Heuer Chronograph that bears his name.

Did You Know? Heuer released a less expensive version of the Autavia later that was actually sold at a discount to smokers of Viceroy cigarettes? For the full story on that, click here.

Click through for more pics of Siffert and McQueen together, including one where McQueen can be seen wearing a Siffert Autavia, plus live shots of a Siffert Autavia next to a Viceroy Autavia.

Question by Alex Jones

I always see questions asking “Is _________ going to be the next ________?”
I know that some wrestlers are similar to others of the past, but why can’t people just appreciate today’s superstars for who they are?

also: I saw someone say earlier that Justin Gabriel is the next Chris Jericho. How are they alike at all?
there are some that make sense, like Benoit/Danielson.

but Chris Jericho/Justin Gabriel?
they have similar trunks and hairstyles. that’s about it. good job insulting someone over the internet over this.

Answer by Broken Dreams
Those fans are living in the past.

Best answer:

Answer by Amber C
Haha – Yes I do think it is good – But isn’t that a lot? Material things are nice, but don’t forget it is not everything. If he is as wonderful as I’m thinking he is (since you got him all that stuff), then I think he will like the home made gifts the best. But yes, I think that is an amazing gift. Bravo! :)
