Not high horology, but a fun reminder of the days when the Williams Renault team were dominant in Formula 1.
HOW DO WE DATE THIS WATCH?
Rothmans took over as the main sponsor of the Williams Renault FW16 for the 1994 Formula 1 season, and remained the title sponsor until the end of the 1997 season. This watch would have been made between 1994 and 1997, a period where Damon Hill and Jacques Villeneuve both won World Championships.
CONDITION
The watch is unworn and only has minor marks from sitting in the box. The quartz movement is fully working, and we will install a brand new battery before sending the watch out to the new owner. The worst thing we can tell you is the hinge on the acrylic box is snapped. There is a small guarantee card included, but it is not dated.
This watch will be supplied with the original presentation box, guarantee card and our Certificate of Authenticity.
Please see the HD video for more detail. All photos and videos are part of the description and are of the actual watch unless mentioned. We do not photoshop any pictures, and the images are copyright of birthyearwatches.com and should not be used without permission.

From 1st September 2021 we will be planting a tree for every watch we sell, working with the International Tree Foundation (Est 1922) to make this business positive on carbon. By buying anything pre owned you are effectively reusing what already exists, but this takes it further and makes us feel good.
