The Formula 1 Watch Guide - Part 3

It's time for part three of our essential summer Formula 1 watch watchers guide. We've dropped a bit down the pack but there's still some stylish timepieces on display.

Williams

Rubens Barrichello

The most experienced driver who has ever raced, covering over 287 Grand Prix starts to date, an achievement unlikely to ever be equalled. Rubens is still a force to be reckoned with, and is also an ambassador to the very highly respected watch house Audemars Piguet. He has been honoured to have had three limited edition series dedicated to this ever popular driver, and these have gone on to be some of Audemars Piguet's most collectable pieces. This year has seen him wearing one of their latest creations, the Grand Prix limited edition.

Nico Hulkenberg

A rookie to the F1 circus, but a previous champion of the A1 GP , Formula 3 Euro and GP2 series, Hulkenberg has enjoyed a distinguished career. He seems to be more of a fan of Polar heart rate monitors than the Oris watches worn by his crew members, so maybe Frank Williams needs to make sure he wears one of the Williams F1 Team chronograph pieces, as they seem to come with a supermodel attached.

Renault

Robert Kubica

The driver rated most by Lewis Hamilton and Poland's first Grand Prix racer, Kubica has already tasted champagne
on the podium this season. Now with the Renault team after BMW decided to cease racing in F1, he can be seen sporting one hottest new names in
 recent years, T.W.Steel

Vitali Petrov

Russia's first F1 export driver has yet to receive the accolades of his Polish team mate. He too sports a T.W.Steel watch (model number 670), which started a partnership with Renault late last season, and at the Basel Watch Fair this year launched another great looking range of watches for the motorsport fan, with the Renault logo on the
 dials.
