This stunning Baume et Mercier Clifton Club Indian watch pays tribute to the Indian Motorcycle Company, founded in 1901 in Springfield, Massachusetts. In particular, this limited edition watch of 1901 pieces celebrates the birthday of the creators of Burt Munro’s record-setting motorbike, the Indian Scout.

It’s impossible to miss the many design features that have been included in the aesthetic of this Baume et Mercier Clifton Club Indian Limited Edition watch to honour the motorcycle company. The black dial stands out immediately against the two silver chronograph sub dials for 30 minutes and 12 hours while the stylised red chronograph seconds hand is a tribute to the Indian Motorcycle logo.

The sleek stainless steel bracelet continues the sporty aesthetic and matches the polished finish of the 44mm stainless steel case and the masculine look of the large tachymeter scale bezel. On the case back of this Baume et Mercier Clifton Club Indian Limited Edition watch is a stunning detailed engraving of the Indian Motorcycle logo and the year 1901 for when the company was founded.

In addition to supporting minors in difficulty, the Laureus Italia Foundation also caters to coaches, educators and teachers through training courses.

The Laureus Foundation, in fact, uses sport as a tool for the inclusion and contrast of educational poverty to accompany minors in their growth path. The activities take place in the outskirts of Italian cities including Milan, Rome, Genoa, Naples, Catania, Palermo and Turin and involve and support over 3000 children in the practice of 20 different sports activities, including football, basketball, surfing, judo and many others.
