Tissot presented the official watches for this year’s FIM MotoGP World Championship to Dorna Sports, at the Baselworld event in Switzerland on Tuesday.
Less than two weeks before the first race of the season, the official presentation of their 2009 MotoGP range at the Tissot stand at Baselworld signals that the Official Timekeeper of MotoGP is ready for action.
The President of Tissot, François Thiébaud, presented the trio of new timepieces to Carmelo Ezpeleta, CEO of Dorna Sports.
“Tissot’s association with the innovative and fast-moving world of motorcycling reflects the dynamic nature of the company and its products, the precision of its movements, and its desire for ever-increasing performance, making this new series of watches the perfect representation of our partnership with MotoGP”, said Tissot President, Mr. François Thiébaud.
Tissot and Dorna Sports both use state-of-the-art technology to meet the demands of MotoGP, the pinnacle of motorbike racing, and are looking forward to meeting the challenges of the new season together.
2009 marks the ninth year of Tissot’s partnership as the Official Timekeeper of MotoGP. With technology developing ever faster and the motorbikes getting faster all the time the technological challenges for the Official Timekeeper are more numerous than ever before. Its innovative approach to timekeeping and watchmaking makes Tissot the perfect partner to ensure the most accurate times and results for the top tier of two-wheeled motorsport, as this special collection demonstrates.
