Boîtier asymétrique à charnières surmonté d'un écusson émaillé aux initiales d’Ettore Bugatti. La couronne de remontage et de mise à l'heure est en forme de bouchon de radiateur. Cadran gris formant grille de radiateur avec chiffres arabes peints. (fabriqué par Stern Frères à Genève). Mouvement mécanique 10 lignes ? n° 8306 à 15 rubis et 3 ajustements. Aiguilles Breguet en acier bleui. Cadran, boitier et mouvement signés. Boucle ardillon en or d’époque. 15 / 25 000 € C'est le 11 novembre 1918 que Georges Scharen inaugure son atelier de fabrication de montres à Bienne. Une multitude de modèles de toutes formes, émaillées, élégantes en font une belle réputation dès les années 20. Le jeune industriel et avant tout technicien est passionné d'automobile et fasciné par la multitude de calandres différentes, source d'inspiration fabuleuse pour ses futurs boîtiers et cadran de montres. Pendant que la Bugatti Grand Prix restait au garage, ses propriétaires devaient au moins porter au poignet leur “montre-radiateur” comme rappel de leur fabuleux bolide. Ettore Bugatti commande une dizaine de montres à son ami portant les nos 261484 à 261495 qu'il réserve à sa famille et à ses “mécaniciens - pilotes”. Deux autres petites séries furent fabriquées par la suite. La montre présentée à la vente en fait partie. Pour information la montre n° 307 215 appartenait à Jean Bugatti (vente Poulain-Le Fur lot a 29 avril 1996), il est très probable que la n° 307 218 ait appartenu à un membre de la famille ou un proche. Mais Georges Schaeren va plus loin et profite de son succès avec Bugatti, en collaborant avec les plus prestigieux Clubs Automobiles qui élèvent ses "montres - radiateurs" au rang de “Carte de Membre”.

El francés de Nápoles Oficialmente nuestra historia comenzó el 24 de junio de 1910, con la fundación de la A.L.F.A. (Anonima Lombarda Fabbrica Automobili). Pero vamos a empezar unos años antes, con un personaje colorido: un francés con un bigote de manillar y un instinto sobresaliente para los negocios. Pierre Alexandre Darracq comenzó su carrera dirigiendo una fábrica de bicicletas en Burdeos, antes de enamorarse de los automóviles. Así, comenzó a producir automóviles en Francia y hacer un éxito de la misma. Luego decidió exportar la apertura de sucursales en Londres y luego Italia. En Italia comenzó sus operaciones, en abril de 1906. Pero Nápoles estaba muy lejos de Francia y el viaje era complejo y costoso. Así, en diciembre había transferido la producción a Milán, en el número 95 en el distrito de Portello. Pero junto con las dificultades logísticas se dio cuenta de que también había problemas de mercado.

  • EMILIO PUGNO” CGIL Regionale Del Piemonte Camera Del Lavoro Di Torino FIOM CGIL Del Piemonte
    1 ASSOCIAZIONE “EMILIO PUGNO” CGIL Regionale del Piemonte Camera del Lavoro di Torino FIOM CGIL del Piemonte Il racconto della memoria Storia della SCA a cura di Ruggero Pugno Dopo la fase decisiva di crescita degli anni ’60, il Sindacato si rinnova nei Consigli. Ma nei Consigli stessi, e, a maggior ragione, nelle strutture esterne ai luoghi di lavoro, la CGIL, e il Sindacato nella sua fase unitaria, rimane strutturalmente ambiguo. A Torino, un nucleo dirigente fondamentale attraversa queste contraddizioni mantenendo a lungo un equilibrio organizzativo e politico di forte carattere progressivo …… il cui fondamento è il potere contrattuale sui luoghi di lavoro ed una estensione dell’intervento del movimento sindacale sui temi delle riforme sociali e della programmazione economica…… su un indirizzo strategico nel quale lo sviluppo del potere contrattuale si associ, si integri con la politica delle riforme, il cui successo è legato precisamente a questa associazione e integrazione Sergio Garavini 2 Questo libro è dedicato: all’amico Michele Giannatempo, all’amico Valentino Formaggi, all’amico Franco Isnardi, ad Alessandro Tarzariol, al Signor Oddone e alla Signora Oddone Un ringraziamento a quelli che hanno contribuito e creduto alla sua realizzazione ed uno in particolare all’amico e storico Donato Antoniello 3 PREFAZIONE Il lavoro del disegnatore tecnico di carrozzeria è un’attività che nasce e si costruisce con una buona dose di perseveranza e di volontà. Deve piacere; poiché è molto selettivo ti può far stare al palo o diventare un progettista. Non esiste una laurea per il progettista di carrozzeria, esiste quella da ingegnere di meccanica, motorista, aeronautica, architettura, per cui, in carrozzeria, ti devi creare il mestiere e perfezionarlo sempre più da solo.

    ACES WILD ACES WILD The Story of the British Grand Prix THE STORY OF THE Peter Miller Motor racing is one of the most 10. 3. BRITISH GRAND PRIX exacting and dangerous sports in the world today. And Grand Prix racing for Formula 1 single-seater cars is the RIX GREATS toughest of them all. The ultimate ambition of every racing driver since 1950, when the com­ petition was first introduced, has been to be crowned as 'World Cham­ pion'. In this, his fourth book, author Peter Miller looks into the back­ ground of just one of the annual qualifying rounds-the British Grand Prix-which go to make up the elusive title. Although by no means the oldest motor race on the English sporting calendar, the British Grand Prix has become recognised as an epic and invariably dramatic event, since its inception at Silverstone, Northants, on October 2nd, 1948. Since gaining World Championship status in May, 1950 — it was in fact the very first event in the Drivers' Championships of the W orld-this race has captured the interest not only of racing enthusiasts, LOONS but also of the man in the street. It has been said that the supreme test of the courage, skill and virtuosity of a Grand Prix driver is to w in the Monaco Grand Prix through the narrow streets of Monte Carlo and the German Grand Prix at the notorious Nürburgring. Both of these gruelling circuits cer­ tainly stretch a driver's reflexes to the limit and the winner of these classic events is assured of his rightful place in racing history.

    MAKING ITS MARK 4 HISTORY 20 FEATURES 5 QUADRIFOGLIO 23 WHEELS 8 Q4 AWD 25 EXTERIOR COLOURS 9 ALFA DNA DRIVE 26 INTERIOR FABRICS MODE SELECTORS 30 INTERIOR TRIMS 10 PERFORMANCE 11 INTERIOR 13 TECHNOLOGY 15 SAFETY & SECURITY 18 CARBON PACKAGE 19 NERO EDIZIONE PACKAGE CONTENTS / 2 3 LOOKING FORWARD TO MAKE HISTORY The courage to reach further — it’s what sets this brand, its designers and its drivers apart. Racing still serves to prove and inspire Alfa Romeo design, long known to be geared for both track and street. It has produced a wide range of innovative vehicles that are now hailed as classics. From the 8C 2300 (which won the 1931 Le Mans) to the Giulia GTA (taking several 1960s European Touring Car Championship titles) to the Alfa Romeo 155 V6 Ti (an Italian Superturismo series champ in the 1990s), Alfa Romeo continues to push ahead in order to proudly look back. HISTORY / 4 DRIVING FORCES For well over a century, Alfa Romeo designers and engineers have built a legendary brand by achieving remarkable symmetry: their goals of creating heightened emotions and developing innovative technology are passionately pursued in equal measure. These defining principles inspire everything from our most powerful Formula 1 entries to today’s Giulia Quadrifoglio — all clocking in world-class performance laps on racing’s most challenging tracks. The main takeaway from the unique, driver-centric design of Alfa Romeo? A relentless intensity that transforms every road — and every passenger. Quadrifoglio shown in Rosso Competizione Tri-Coat.
