For the 2011 MotoGP season Tissot, as official timekeeper of MotoGP, have announced the new limited edition of the Tissot T-Race watch which we feature below. As with previous years these watches have always sold extremely fast. We now have stock of the quartz version.

Orange is the standout colour of this year’s Tissot T-Race MotoGP Limited Edition. Contrasted with sporty black and silver, the trendsetting hue graces the racing tyre-inspired silicone strap and is accented on the dial, made of the same carbon fibre used for MotoGP bike bodies. The stainless steel case back sports the MotoGP iconic logo, and Tissot’s role as World Championship Official Timekeeper is proudly engraved around its rim. The GMT rotating bezel, also inspired by the bike’s brake disc, will keep race fans in touch with their favourite sport as it moves through 15 countries around the globe. Racing functions are handled by three chronograph subdials: 30-minute counter at 10 o’clock, 1/10 seconds counter at 2 o’clock and a small seconds counter at 6 o’clock. The date function is presented via a magnifying window at 3 o’clock, and the dial is shielded by a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal. Launched in a limited edition of 8,888 watches and each housed in a gorgeous chequered flag presentation box, this is the essential racing timepiece of the 2011 season.
