Singer Vehicle Design was started in 2009 by Rob Dickinson, former singer of Catherine Wheel and cousin of Iron Maiden frontman Bruce Dickinson. They started by restoring Porsche 911 cars to absolute perfection, essentially dominating references to the word “restomod”. They evolved from restoring these old cars to creating their own modern variants of old Porsches, with completely custom made frames and engines. These are insane projects starting at a million dollars to build, but also the pinnacle of restoration. Dickinson also started Singer Reimagined with designer Marco Borraccino, a watch company. At the very beginning, they made chronographs aimed at people who already own a restored 911\. But then they released the DualTrack, what might be argued as their first serious non-chronograph aimed at the general public that doesn't buy million dollar restomods. It was an interesting GMT that showed the second time zone with a rotating 24-hour flange at the edge. That first version was 43mm. Now, they're introducing a new DualTrack collection, the 1970, one that is much smaller, a bit more angular and infinitely more wearable.

The case is 40mm wide and 12.6mm thick, made out of steel, with a flat tonneau-shaped middle that's brushed across the top and mirror-polished along the bevels. A fluted polished bezel sits above it. This thing is inspired by 1970s Bertone wedge design: the planes are flat, the angles are sharp, and nothing is rounded off to be friendly. Love that thing. The only rounded things are the domed sapphire crystals on both sides. You get 100 meters of water resistance. A corrector at nine o'clock pushes the home-time disc forward in one-hour jumps.

Three dials are available, all in a velvet finish: khaki green, cobalt blue, and dark espresso brown. Golden faceted markers are filled with cream Super-LumiNova, while the rhodium-plated hands and seconds hand are filled with orange lume. The 24-hour flange around the dial is anodized aluminium with an inverted triangle marking the readout at six o'clock. I love that the numerals all have the same orientation so the numbers at 12 o'clock appear upside-down. 

Inside is the calibre 4 Dual Time Slim ST5001, a manual-wind movement developed in-house from Singer's base calibre 4\. The movement beats at 4Hz and has four barrels to give you 144 hours of reserve. Having the four barrels, the movement looks fantastic. The bracelet is integrated and steel, tapering from 22mm to 18mm with brushed outer links against a polished center, and the clasp has an on-the-fly adjustment. Singer calls the link shape Track Curb, after racetrack curbing and I can kind of see it. 

The Singer 1970 DualTrack collection goes on sale in October and the watches are priced at CHF 23,500, without tax. See more [on the Singer website](https://singerreimagined.com/collections/dualtrack-1970/sr811-5?ref=itsabouttime.email).
