Mercedes customers can keep up with time between driving trips from a selection of wristwatches the automaker recently unveiled.
The three Swiss-made timepiece designs, available at Mercedes dealerships around the world, “are a perfect reflection of the brand identity of Mercedes-AMG vehicles,” the German company said in introducing the watches.
Mercedes doesn’t specify whether the watches are intended for men or women but is marketing them to men. The collection includes a “business” design with a metal band, along with two sportier options.
Two of the pieces are called chronographs for their stopwatch function. Mercedes used titanium in the watches’ design for its light weight, along with scratch-resistant ceramic material and antireflective sapphire crystal. Two have glow-in-the-dark face numbers and one a three-dimensional dial.
