Lewis Hamilton commits to Mercedes until 2025<\/h3>\n

Lewis Hamilton has hinted at what his life after F1 could look like after teaming up with IWC Schaffhausen to design a rare watch. Hamilton has won a joint-record seven F1 world championships and penned fresh terms with Mercedes earlier this year to commit his future to the team until the end of the 2025 season.<\/p>\n

Hamilton may well be looking forward to his next two years with Mercedes following his new deal, but he also appears to have one eye on the future. IWC have unveiled the limited-edition Portugieser tourbillon retrograde chronograph, which is co-designed by the blockbuster star.<\/p>\n

Just 44 watches have been made, which reflect the veteran\u2019s F1 number, and the brand\u2019s website is selling each one for a whopping \u00a3135,000.<\/p>\n

According to Bloomberg, the watch has 12 diamond hour markers and a teal textile strap. The 43.5 mm platinum case includes a sapphire crystal back that acts as a window into the 89900-calibre automatic movement and its 18-carat gold oscillating weight.<\/p>\n

The face of the watch has three features. And one has a unique selling point to racing fans as the chronograph function subdial rests at 12 o\u2019clock and can be used to time an F1 race. The watch also includes a retrograde date display and sports a flying hacking minute tourbillon at 6 o\u2019clock. This kinetic feature oscillates to lessen the impact of gravity, meaning the timepiece is able to maintain its accuracy.<\/p>\n

This is Hamilton\u2019s third special edition IWC design since 2014 following the titanium ingenieur chronograph edition Lewis Hamilton and the black ceramic big pilot\u2019s watch perpetual calendar edition.<\/p>\n

\u201cIWC don\u2019t usually put diamonds on their watches, particularly on the men\u2019s watches,\u201d Hamilton said as he spoke about the timepiece. \u201cSo convincing them to do that was really cool. I just thought it (the aquatic colour) was the most vibrant and different. There\u2019s some serious weight to it. Timepieces align really well in my life because I\u2019m literally chasing every millisecond when I\u2019m on track.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hamilton clearly has a love for watches and fashion in general so could get more involved in the industry when his days on the track come to an end. And in an interview with Oracle Time two years ago, the ace explained: \u201cI feel naked without a watch. You look at James Bond, the watch is what sets off his suit, his look. I\u2019ve been wearing them a long time, since I got my first from Argos. I remember saving up and going to Argos in Stevenage and buying this watch just because I wanted to uplift my look.\u201d<\/p>\n
