In 2017, they teamed up with the Ford Motor Company to release the Endurance Chronograph alongside the newly released Ford GT supercar. The watch is a wholly original design that honors the cars ample colorway configuration options, and does it all at under $1,000. We recently got our hands on all 5 variants (kinda) to see how it holds up on the wrist.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_73920\" style=\"width: 1110px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-73920\" title=\"StockX Image\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-73920 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/images-wp.stockx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/FordGT_2-1100x734.jpg\" alt=\"StockX_Image\" width=\"1100\" height=\"734\" srcset=\"https:\/\/images-wp.stockx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/FordGT_2-1100x734.jpg 1100w, https:\/\/images-wp.stockx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/FordGT_2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/images-wp.stockx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/FordGT_2-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/images-wp.stockx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/FordGT_2-944x630.jpg 944w, https:\/\/images-wp.stockx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/FordGT_2-1200x800.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/images-wp.stockx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/FordGT_2-1198x800.jpg 1198w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1688px) 100vw, 1688px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-73920\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">2017 Ford GT<\/p><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">First, let\u2019s take a quick look at the Ford GT, from which the watch takes its inspiration. In 2015, the Ford Motor Company shocked the automotive world at the North America International Auto Show with the surprise release of a new GT road car. The car was a follow up on the 2006 model, inspired by the LeMans winning GT40 race car of the \u201860s. The latest model was released as a 2016 model year to honor the 50th anniversary of the GT40 LeMans victory, and in doing so entered that year\u2019s 24 hour race of LeMans. It proceeded to win the GTE Pro class, a remarkable feat for a first production year car.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"StockX Image\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-73919\" src=\"https:\/\/images-wp.stockx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/DSC_1863-1100x733.jpg\" alt=\"StockX_Image\" width=\"1100\" height=\"733\" srcset=\"https:\/\/images-wp.stockx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/DSC_1863-1100x733.jpg 1100w, https:\/\/images-wp.stockx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/DSC_1863-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/images-wp.stockx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/DSC_1863-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/images-wp.stockx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/DSC_1863-945x630.jpg 945w, https:\/\/images-wp.stockx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/DSC_1863-1200x800.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2325px) 100vw, 2325px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In celebrating the car, Autodromo designed the appropriately named Endurance Chronograph. As we\u2019ve come to expect from Autodromo, the watch is case construction and proportions are impeccable. The case measures 40mm in diameter, with a lug to lug measurement of 45mm and a case thickness just north of 11mm. As a result, the watch wear comfortably on the wrist, a touch smaller than the case diameter would suggest, even.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"StockX Image\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-73911\" src=\"https:\/\/images-wp.stockx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/DSC_1959-1100x733.jpg\" alt=\"StockX_Image\" width=\"1100\" height=\"733\" srcset=\"https:\/\/images-wp.stockx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/DSC_1959-1100x733.jpg 1100w, https:\/\/images-wp.stockx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/DSC_1959-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/images-wp.stockx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/DSC_1959-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/images-wp.stockx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/DSC_1959-945x630.jpg 945w, https:\/\/images-wp.stockx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/DSC_1959-1200x800.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 6936px) 100vw, 6936px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are 5 different dial variations available for regular folk to purchase, and a 6th customizable option available only to Ford GT buyers. That one also comes in a bespoke case, and with a mechanical flyback chronograph movement, so if you\u2019re one of the lucky few selected by Ford to buy their supercar, it\u2019s definitely worth a look. For the rest of us, there are a variety of blue, red and black dial configurations, featuring well placed and colorful accents.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"StockX Image\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-73917\" src=\"https:\/\/images-wp.stockx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/DSC_2001-1100x733.jpg\" alt=\"StockX_Image\" width=\"1100\" height=\"733\" srcset=\"https:\/\/images-wp.stockx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/DSC_2001-1100x733.jpg 1100w, https:\/\/images-wp.stockx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/DSC_2001-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/images-wp.stockx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/DSC_2001-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/images-wp.stockx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/DSC_2001-945x630.jpg 945w, https:\/\/images-wp.stockx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/DSC_2001-1200x800.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 6840px) 100vw, 6840px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The dials sit under a domed crystal that bring a distinctive throwback character to the Endurance Chronograph. Paired with a bezel that angles down toward the dial, which is either polished or brushed depending on the dial, the on-wrist appearance is truly unique.
