Swiss luxury watch brand GRAHAM unveils new generation timepieces from Silverstone RS collection. Excelling in performance, the new timepieces – the Silverstone RS Endurance, Supersprint and Skeleton – adopt the same high-level of cutting-edge technology and racing codes.
GRAHAM SILVERSTONE RS ENDURANCE 24HR
The new generation of Silverstone chronographs bring unprecedented performance with the Silverstone Endurance 24HR. For the first time, this piece of technology proposes a dissociated time measurement of 24 hours race and lap time. GRAHAM has developed a mono-pusher movement with a double chronograph function which meets endurance racing requirements.
Functionality is improved with usage. The main measurement of lap time is operated by a start/stop /reset chronograph button which activates the minutes and seconds counting, identifiable with the red rubber catch. The number of lap times that can be measured is limitless as it functions in an independent manner.
A second measurement is operated thanks to a secondary chronograph with 24HR counter and flyback, activated with the 24HR red pusher. This double function is the perfect fast-action system, ideal for Endurance racing and dual timekeeping test drives.
Through a play of alluring semi-transparency, the black-smoked dial is enhanced with touches of red to identify the 24 hours counter and striped date disc which recalls race track’s painted white and red kerbing edges and finally the tachymeter scale of the bezel.
The black diamond like coated (DLC) watch bears racing features a ceramic bezel and integrated tyre tread rubber strap with red inset. The seconds counter is automobile brake disc-shaped to ensure dynamic reading of the sweep seconds.

GRAHAM SILVERSTONE RS SUPERSPRINT
The Silverstone RS Supersprint features high-level performance to become a hybrid of first class watch making and world-beating motorsport. With a 1/8th second mirror graduation scale, you will be able to read the time without parallax error by aligning the central second hand on its own reflection on the circular mirror.
With its 42 mm steel case, the Supersprint is the most energetic and self-confident model of the Silverstone RS collection. With a new ergonomic case which consists of a 42 mm middle, the watch appears with a wider personality thanks to a 44 mm bezel. This double configuration enables a perfect match on every wrist.
The main revolution with the Silverstone RS Supersprint is the presence of a mirror graduation around the dial. The use of the mirror is the professional solution to ensure exact reading.
When the red chrono hand stops, you can read time on the 1/8th seconds scale thanks to the mirror. The second hand placed on top of its reflection will give an accurate measurement.
