Just Best Replica Watches — One-of-a-kind Baume & Mercier Capeland Shelby? Cobra up for auction at Antiquorum. Auction date has been rescheduled from December 9 to December 15, 2015.
In March, Baume & Mercier announced its partnership with Carroll Shelby International Inc. to create two exclusive, limited edition Fashion replica watches born from the DNA of Shelby’s most revered creations. Following the success of this launch, Baume & Mercier announces a second installment in its collaboration: A one-of-a-kind Capeland Shelby? Cobra timepiece that will be auctioned at Antiquorum in New York City on December 9, 2015, with all proceeds going to the Carroll Shelby Foundation. Bids may be placed online, over the phone or in person.
“We are very proud to partner with the Carroll Shelby Foundation. Our agreement is nurtured by a similar philosophy. The elegance of the lines, the attention to high quality, and commitment to humanism are some of our common characteristics,” stated Alain Zimmermann, CEO of Baume & Mercier.
“Shelby and Baume & Mercier have earned an international reputation for quality, precision and craftsmanship,” said Neil Cummings, CEO of Carroll Shelby Licensing and co-CEO of Carroll Shelby International. “Our shared pursuit of perfection has made both companies legendary. We’re honored that Baume & Mercier has created a one-of-a kind swiss replica watches UK to benefit the Shelby Automotive Museum, which was designed to inspire a new generation of enthusiasts worldwide.”
One-of-a-kind Capeland Shelby? Cobra 18K red gold Flyback Swiss Replica Chronograph
In keeping with the design of the two Baume & Mercier Capeland Shelby? Cobra chronographs released earlier this year, Baume & Mercier has designed a truly unique version of this watch inspired by the graphic identity codes of the Shelby Cobra racecar. This precious and sporty one-off chronograph is distinguished by the extreme subtlety of its Haute Horlogerie finishes: an off-white dial with sky blue stripes picking up those on racing cars, blue accents on the dial and hands, a 44 mm polished/satin-finished 18K red gold case, a finely grained black calfskin strap with round-scale blue alligator lining and gray stitching, and an 18K red gold pin buckle. The inscription “Shelby Cobra 1965-2015, Unique Piece” is engraved on the case back, framing a sapphire crystal bearing Carroll Shelby’s signature. In keeping with tradition and with the high-precision reputation of Baume & Mercier replica watches, this flyback chronograph is driven by a Swiss-made mechanical self-winding movement from the Manufacture La Joux-Perret. The exclusive presentation box will also house an additional black leather alligator strap with round-scale blue alligator lining and gray stitching.
“It is a pleasure for Antiquorum to offer Baume & Mercier’s unique Capeland Shelby? Cobra Flyback Chronograph commemorating Carroll Shelby’s most celebrated automotive creation, the legendary Shelby Cobra in our December auction,” said Evan Zimmermann, President & CEO of Antiquorum. “We are honored to support the Carroll Shelby Foundation and help raise funds to assist families of children with major heart ailments.”
Proceeds from the auction will go to the Carroll Shelby Foundation, an organization that raises funds to help families and children affected by heart diseases. It also provides schooling and education for underprivileged young people in the US.
