Abstract :

Published in October 2013 by Éditions ETAI, "Watches and Automobiles, Symbols of Excellence" is a work by Hubert Hainault, which transports us to the enchanting world of watchmaking and the automobile.

Exceptional cars do not hesitate to call on a renowned watchmaker to afford a unique dashboard clock.
In the book, we discover this solid association through numerous illustrations with prestigious brands such as Porsche, Alfa Romeo, Bugatti, Bentley or even Tag Heuer, Chopard or Blancpain for watches.

Throughout the book, we also meet more intimate brands such as Tesla, Pagani, Koenigsegg or Giuliano Mazzuoli, Parmigiani Fleurier and Fabien Cacheux.
In the race for high performance and perfection, fine watchmaking and the automobile industry quickly came together, having common goals.
From design to comfort to performance, the pursuit of evolution on four wheels is a virtual obsession. For their part, watch cases are being perfected and incorporate ever sharper, ever more precise and complicated movements.

Horsepower and automatic mechanics know no bounds when it comes to innovating and perfecting. Noble materials such as leather, gold or platinum stand alongside the cutting edge of modern technology with carbon fiber, titanium and ultra-sophisticated scented rubbers.
It is a real pleasure to discover watches very inspired by prestigious cars at the height of refinement.

Hubert Hainault, photographer-editor since the end of the 1990s, is a true automobile enthusiast, which led him to work as a photographer and editor-in-chief in the specialized press for more than 15 years.
Likewise, he has a strong interest in watches, on which he has written various articles.
Thus, to bring together his two passions, he offers us the captivating book "Watches and Automobiles, Symbols of Excellence".
