Ciga Design's Charity Watches for Eddie Jordan
Ciga Design, a leading Chinese watchmaker known for its industrial‑design focus and affordable, innovative timepieces, has launched a pair of limited‑edition charity watches for former Formula 1 champion Eddie Jordan. The first piece, the Eddie Jordan Hunter, is a three‑hand automatic skeleton watch limited to 191 units, featuring a bold multi‑part case and a bright yellow rubber strap stamped with “FTB” (“F*** the Begrudgers”). Priced at £654 (about $900), it is available for pre‑order through the Eddie Jordan Foundation website. A second, even rarer edition, the Eddie Jordan Hunter Tourbillon, is limited to just 15 watches—one for each car built by Jordan Grand Prix. This model shares the striking Hunter case but adds a throbbing tourbillon positioned at 6 o’clock on the skeletonised black dial. While also sold exclusively via the foundation, its price and release date have not yet been disclosed.
