REC Watches Tourer Steel

The TOURER Racing Green is a Swiss-made timepiece inspired by the seductive shapes of ‘50s and 60s grand tourer cars, designed for the gentleman of today.

The Grand Tourer Decade
Take a joyride back through time with the TOURER collection – a celebration of the iconic Grand Tourer (GT), that decorated the landscape of the late ‘50s and throughout the ‘60s. 

Crafted by skilled artisans and visionary designers, the GT cars were designed for long-distance driving and high speed – whether you wanted to leisurely cruise through the open roads, or tackle them with speed, the Grand Tourer was the car for the job.

The roots of the Grand Tourer / Gran Turismo history trace back to the Italian Mille Miglia (1000-mile) race of the ‘20s. 

In the words of Enzo Ferrari, “The Mille Miglia created our cars and the Italian car industry. The Mille Miglia permitted the birth of GT, or grand touring cars, which are now sold all over the world. The Mille Miglia proved […] that motor racing improves the breed.”

Coined as the ‘gentleman’s luxury car,’ GTs of the ‘50s and ‘60s were traditionally two-door coupes with 2 seats or a 2+2 seating arrangement. They were front-engine cars with a rear-wheel drive to open up more cabin and loading space. Grand tourers are most often the coupé derivative of luxury saloons or sedans. Many iconic car models, such as the Mercedes-Benz 300 SL, Jaguar E-Type, and Aston Martin DB5, are considered classic examples of Grand Tourer cars.
