The MARCH LA.B SHELBY Limited Edition Watch celebrates one the rarest Shelby automobile prototypes of all time: the Shelby EXP 500 known as the “Green Hornet”. This exclusive timepiece reflects on Shelby’s heritage of pure performance and racing aesthetics. Encased in a black chassis set against a wood dial replicating the original dash, the Shelby Limited Edition Watch transports you back to the glory days of the late sixties. The automatic version also features tinted green crystal with a view to the Swiss made mechanical movement. Produced in 1968 by the legendary American automotive designer and race driver Carroll Shelby, the Mustang hardtop double prototype is an icon for car enthusiasts worldwide. The notchback Shelby became known as the EXP 500 Green Hornet, outfitted with a ’68 Shelby custom hood, groundbreaking independent suspensions and powered by a 428 CJ “X” engine with Fuel Injection. Custom painter Sonny Fee applied three coats of Gold Luster Green lacquer with gold metallic mica over the original topcoat. Emblems and custom white/gold EXP500 stripes identified the car as a true Shelby prototype. This car is now an integral part of American heritage.

Wow Alan, this is REALLY something here ! cyclops Haven't heard of this brand
before, and being a Mustang fan, the whole Mustang theme adds some
extra coolness to the equation for me as well. What's so impressive is
that you can see this is a real watch company, and not just some watch
that has a Mustang sign on it. It's pretty AWESOME imho. That wooden
dial with the floating markers has kind of a vintage feel to it. While the
case, and crown position adds even more character to the watch. Even
the movement, bracelet, and strap are great. Hey, and how about the
car that comes with it ?! What a neat find Alan. A very cool watch, along
with a very cool new watch company here. Thank you !

Pretty ugly to me, whether you like the car or not. I did not like when Invicta had a wood dial and don't like it here. Just not for me I guess.
