Being granted the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to use these components from the mythological legend in our timepieces, we made a promise to owner Mr. Craig Jackson that our timepieces would honor the automotive history, the cars represent.
"REC Watches goes to extraordinary means to find unique artifacts and put these into a brand new timepiece. That intrigued me, coming off with enough sheet metal to build into the watch. They do it in a way that keep the patina and they build the watch to represent the vehicle."
Craig Jackson - Car Collector, Restorer, Chairman and CEO of Barrett-Jackson Auction Company
When we started working on the design in early 2019, we had two overall goals: We wanted the design to reflect its mythological siblings as well as creating a watch that stands on its own.
Secondly, we wanted to create something more wearable for all wrist sizes and therefore downscaled the size to 42 mm.
Creating a watch that honors the design of the most iconic Mustang ever built has been one of our greatest challenges yet. A true Mustang aficionado will immediately recognize all the small design references whereas a watch fan will appreciate the masculine and original design of our latest collection.
Mission complete.
