IndyCar fans have the chance to own a wristwatch featuring a genuine piece of Alex Palou’s victorious 2025 No.10 Chip Ganassi race car.
Created by UK-based watchmaker Omologato, the Alex Palou CGR Race Car Chronograph will be limited to 500 examples.
Each watch includes a piece of lightweight carbon fiber bodywork removed from Palou’s Chip Ganassi Racing Dallara DW12 Honda.
The Alex Palou CGR Race Car Chronograph is part of an ongoing partnership between Omologato and Chip Ganassi Racing, following the end of this year’s IndyCar season.
A piece of championship-winning history
Three sections of carbon fiber from Alex Palou’s all-conquering car were shipped by Chip Ganassi Racing to Omologato’s workshop in England.
The British company shaped and milled the carbon fiber parts to the correct design, plus the 1mm width needed to fit inside a watch case.
Omologato says this process caused some of the carbon fiber to crack, but it was eventually able to craft 500 pieces for inside each chronograph.
Every piece of carbon fiber is said to be unique, though, and there may be natural imperfections – such as oil or track debris – on the dial.
The design of the Alex Palou CGR Race Car Chronograph is said to have been inspired by early Indycar gauges, which were made by Smiths in the UK.
Available to reserve now
The Alex Palou CGR Race Car Chronograph will cost $1,002.45 in the United States. Customers can choose a black leather or fabric strap.
Omologato is accepting reservations for the wristwatch now, with a deposit required to secure one of the 500 examples.
The 2025 IndyCar season saw Alex Palou claim eight race wins, including a victory in the Indianapolis 500. Five other podiums helped the Spanish-born driver to secure his fourth IndyCar chanmpionship with ease.
Palou also gave the Chip Ganassi Racing team its 17th IndyCar title – albeit tied with arch-rivals Team Penske.
