Rebellion Timepieces and the Dakar Rally have identical DNA through a shared passion for motor sport, a lust for performance, and a flawless professionalism. Their daring cruising speed brings both brands to renew their partnership for a second year in a row to share together a new challenge: the Dakar Rally 2020. This legendary race will take place from January 5 to 17 in Saudi Arabia. A major first for the Dakar Rally that was created in 1978 and had left Africa eleven years ago for America. This third chapter will now take place in the Middle East.
Rebellion Timepieces delighted by this partnership, has decided to develop a personalized version of its iconic Predator Chronograph watch. Rebellion fascinates with its powerful mechanical DNA as well as the diversity of its designs. Reminding the racing cars which participate in the Dakar Rally, and thus a strapping combination of angles, layers and curves, the Predator Chronograph Dakar offers a perfect blend of watchmaking and automobile aesthetics. Every detail of the design reminds of high-performance racing mechanics. From the black DLC honeycomb dial to the bezel held by its Rebellion screws colored in 5N, to the patented deployment buckle. Boasting a generous 48-hour power reserve and date indicator, this solid chronograph also stands out for its original seconds’ indicator at 9 o’clock. A short small hand runs from 0 to 30 while a larger hand takes over from 31 to 60 seconds. The Predator Chronograph Dakar is a limited edition of only 20 pieces.
"We are very pleased to participate in this second year of collaboration with the Dakar Rally, which is taking place this year in Saudi Arabia", said Alexandre Pesci, President of Rebellion Corporation and Dakar Rally Driver 2020. "I have the honor to take part myself in this great edition driving a Rebellion car to challenge the desert of the Middle East. Moreover, Rebellion Timepieces is proud to introduce our iconic watch, the Predator Chronograph in its "Dakar" personalized version, a true reflection of our Maison and faithful to our values of performance and extreme."
