WATCHES & TIMEPIECES
The watch is rugged, tough, and dependable,
crafted with a satin brushed stainless case with
screw case back, a scratch resistant mineral
crystal, and 100 meters water resistance. The
strap is made of USA-sourced Horween leather,
famous for its beauty and durability – it will
quickly pick up the look of well-worn motorcycle
boots and jackets and take on a vintage patina
adding more character the longer it is worn. The
straps feature easy on/off fingernail pull spring
pins to allow for strap changes in a matter of
seconds. However, the most impressive aspect of
the design is raised padded ribs on the strap that
emulate the beautiful stitch treatments seen on
Roland’s signature jackets that are revered and
collected all over the world.
The Szanto ICON Signature Series are small
collections of watches tied to famous individuals
who have made their mark in a variety of fields.
Time Concepts’ ICONs are masters of their
respective crafts and all share an appreciation
and affinity for quality timepieces. Other industry
leaders in the ICON series include Indy Series
and Indy 500 Champion Danny Sullivan, and
renowned big-wave surfer, Shane Dorian, both of
whom also worked closely with Time Concepts
to define, design and develop a timepiece
that connects to their respective styles and
personalities, all while maintaining the Szanto
commitment to excellence. In this way, ICON
watches reflect the tastes and interests of the
people who inspired them.
“I’m honored to partner with Time Concepts on the design and introduction of the
Roland Sands Icon Watch,” said Sands. “The resulting watch is a timepiece that
embodies the love and passion that I have for racing, the motorcycling community
and innovative design.”
Szanto ICON Signature Series: Roland Sands watches retail for $225 and are
available for purchase online at timeconcepts.net.
