The Ducati One and Desmo
Elsa Blaine — November 11, 2008 — Autos
Ducati’s powerful and assertively designed motorcycles are the inspiration for two new Swiss-made watches. The ultra-cool black, silver and red timepieces are made by Binda Group.
The motorcycle influenced details include a band styled after a racing tire tread on the essentially black ‘Ducati One’, and aggressive instrument-like faces. The ‘Desmo’ model was named after the ‘Desmodromic system’ which is a technological advancement on all Ducati motorcycles. The brand’s signature red appears as accenting shots of colour on both designs.
These watches reflect the brand’s sexy Italian style to perfection; that from a woman’s perspective.
