Having supported automotive events in California since 1997 – and this legendary 24-hour race for over 20 years – Rolex champions innovation and excellence through the ages. With a desire to respect and preserve the past while looking to the future, the Swiss watchmaker partners the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance®, the Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion, The Quail, A Motorsports Gathering and the Pebble Beach Tour d’Elegance® presented by Rolex.
PEBBLE BEACH CONCOURS D’ELEGANCE®
Today, on the greens of the fabled Pebble Beach Golf Links®, where Rolex legends Arnold Palmer, Jack Nicklaus and Tiger Woods have walked, vintage cars from the turn of the 20th century to present-day created a glittering display. Drawing the attention of the well-dressed, discerning crowds were the Talbot-Lago Grand Sports and the magnificent Lincolns. As one of the highest honours in the automotive world, this year’s Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance® Best of Show was awarded to the 1932 Duesenberg J Figoni Sports Torpedo having demonstrated the perfect combination of authenticity, style and design. Recognizing the labour of love taken to show this one-of-a-kind car, a specially engraved Oyster Perpetual Datejust 41 was presented to the winner. Following the prize-giving ceremony, owner Lee R. Anderson Sr. says: “We’re overwhelmed, it’s such a joy to win at Pebble. It has taken many years to restore this car and to receive a Rolex watch is wonderful, everything here is outstanding.”
