Struggling for luxury gift ideas for the cycling fanatic in your life, perhaps even yourself?
Struggle no more, thanks to Bianchi’s new range of watches, delivered inside a stainless steel bidon.
The historic Italian brand may be better known for their bikes, but with their 2014 range already attracting nods of approval since its launch in June, the Milanese concern has decided to head in a slightly different direction to celebrate a certain anniversary.
To mark the 40th anniversary of Felice Gimondi’s world championship victory, Bianchi has launched a new collection of stylish sports watches.
The ‘Barcelona 1973’ Bianchi Timepieces are to be sold in ‘precious and irresistible’ cycling bottles ‘ (it says here) with ‘refined design and ergonomic shape’.
The contemporary-styled watches, for both men and women, are water resistant to 100m and are available in black, white and, of course, Bianchi’s signature ‘celeste’.
Bianchi’s iconic eagle features on both the stainless steel bidons and on the back of the watches.
The timepieces are expected to go on sale from next month at selected Bianchi dealers.
