Rev your engines, here comes the V12-44 Abarth 595

For the Scorpion brand’s 50th anniversary, Abarth and BRM have once again teamed up to produce an exceptional model in only 49 pieces. The V12-44 will be sporting the colours of the special Abarth 595 series this year.

The MK-44 AF is now available from BRM Chronographes

« Motorsport is all about light weight technology and precision. That's why i'm so proud about my partnership with BRM. The BRM Augusto Farfus watch has my colors and my style. We decided to make only 18 pieces because that was my racing number when I started racing in Brazil», Augusto Farfus.

The MK-44 Augusto Farfus is an ultra-light timepiece. The case is made of Makrolon ®, a material used in motor racing. It is used to build the side windows and has to be as light as possible. The same goes for the movement. Each part has been simplified so as to weigh as little as possible. The rotor weighs half as much as in an ordinary watch. Lightness, performance and style are the keys to this MK-44 Augusto Farfus

The MK-44 is the world’s lightest automatic chronograph, at only 48.80 grs.

A Formula 3 crack flies the BRM flag

"Working with a company as successful and distinguished as B.R.M. certainly makes me proud, and I’m highly excited about the project we’re setting out on together. In motorsport, time is everything; it’s what you’re measured against, and it’s what you’re trying to beat, so this is a very natural partnership

The start of the current FIA Formula 3 European Championship season has been somewhat of a roller-coaster for me. We’ve had some technical problems and our fair share of bad luck, but that made it all the sweeter to finally win one of the highlights of the year: the Grand Prix de Pau. It’s a fantastic race on the streets of the city, and I’m very happy to have that one on my CV
I’ve also been racing in the new 550-bhp FA1 series this year, which has been good fun. I managed to win both races at Monza recently and will be back for the events that don’t clash with my F3 commitments.
The pace has been really strong over the last few races, and I’m driving better than ever. Hopefully we’ll get over the difficulties we’re currently facing in reliability and consistency over the second half of the year, and win many more races. That’s what I’m here for, and what I’ll be here for in the future."
