Description
The P51 Little Red is a limited edition timepiece made from Carroll Shelby’s 1967 EXP500 prototype, aka ‘Little Red’.
This exceptional big-block Shelby notchback coupe played a pivotal role in shaping the trajectory of the Ford Mustang and American muscle cars as a whole. Spearheaded by Lee Iacocca, the vehicle eventually served as the blueprint for Ford’s iconic 1968 California Special Mustang, before fading into obscurity and presumed lost or destroyed.
For years, Little Red remained an elusive treasure among collector cars, until an exhaustive investigative effort led by Craig Jackson finally unearthed and restored the vehicle to its former splendor. Salvaged parts from Little Red’s meticulous restoration have now been repurposed to grace the dial of the P51 Little Red timepieces.
With its striking red-and-black color palette, the P51 Little Red exudes undeniable allure on the wrist, while the double calf leather strap paired with a sleek 42 mm cushion case ensures a luxuriously comfortable wear.

Two of a kind
Shelby experimental
Little Red stood as a groundbreaking experimental prototype, conceived to explore the possibility of introducing a coupe into Shelby’s esteemed ’67/’68 lineup.
A fusion of innovative engineering and Ford’s renowned technical prowess, this unique vehicle epitomized Shelby’s penchant for pushing the boundaries of automotive design.
Lost and found
Tornado Alley
Little Red stands as a testament to an era of unparalleled innovation in American automotive craftsmanship and holds a cherished place in the annals of Mustang lore, thanks to the unwavering dedication of a Shelby team committed to pushing the boundaries of design and performance.
For over fifty years, it was widely believed that Little Red had met the fate typical of prototype vehicles – consigned to the unforgiving jaws of the crusher.
American automotive history
On your wrist
Capturing the essence of one of the most legendary Mustangs in a timepiece posed a thrilling challenge.
Our vision was to craft a contemporary iteration of the P51 watch that would resonate deeply with Mustang aficionados, brimming with nuanced nods to the iconic Little Red.
Splitit installment payments at 0% interest: How does it work exactly?
Splitit allows you to split the total payment over a maximum of twelve months using your credit card. This service is free, involves no credit checks or applications, and means you can choose to split your payment into monthly installments.
To use this payment method all you need a credit card with a sufficient amount of available credit. Splitit authorizes the total order value—but don’t worry, this is not taken in full when you complete the purchase. At the time of shipping, only the first installment will be charged to your credit card. The remaining balance will be held on your credit card until the final payment has been made. However, a payment authorization for the outstanding amount of your purchase will be held during the full payment period.
After each monthly payment, the amount held from your available balance will be reduced to the new remaining balance (the held amount might appear as “pending”). To ensure that the authorization of your credit card is valid for the entire payment period, the authorization will be renewed every 21 days.
Are there any extra fees involved?
No, this is an interest-free payment method with no additional fixed fees, service fees, interest, or hidden fees of any kind.
Which credit cards does Splitit support?
You can pay using Splitit with a Mastercard or Visa card. Debit cards, American Express and pre-paid cards are not accepted.
Do I have to maintain the required available credit amount on my credit card?
Yes, you must maintain a sufficient amount on your credit card for both the monthly payment and for the full outstanding amount of your purchase during the full period of the plan. The authorized amount will be charged only in the event that a monthly payment is declined (the authorization hold might appear as “pending” on your credit card bill).
What happens if I return the product?
If you decide to not keep the ordered item(s), upon return of the items we will reimburse the installments that have already been paid and cancel the outstanding payments.
When and where can I choose the number of installments for my payment plan?
Installment payments with Splitit can be chosen as a payment option during the checkout process. Here, you can choose the number of installments in your payment plan and view the monthly payment amounts.
