Made in France – Besançon
This LIP mechanical chronograph, limited to just 159 pieces, pays tribute to one of the most iconic cars from Fred Lip’s personal collection: the 1969 Lamborghini Miura. An exceptional car that held a special place in the Maison’s history and which Fred Lip considered “the ultimate car.”
For this special numbered edition, the dial faithfully reproduces the green chosen by Fred Lip for the bodywork and interior of his Miura. A deep green that plays with the light and reveals different shades depending on the angle, creating a subtle palette of greens.
Its 40 mm polished stainless steel case houses a mechanical chronograph powered by a Swiss movement, visible through the transparent, screwed and engraved case back. The dial features two sub-dials, a date window and partially luminescent hands, while a double-domed sapphire crystal protects it. When it comes to the strap, this collector’s watch offers two distinct styles. It comes with a green and white woven strap, which highlights its automotive inspiration and sporty-chic character, as well as a camel perforated leather strap, offering a more classic look that is equally easy to wear every day.
Numbered from 1 to 159, this limited edition celebrates LIP’s 159th anniversary in 2026 in its own way. Presented in its case with both straps, it will appeal to watch enthusiasts and car lovers alike, looking for a LIP collector’s piece steeped in history.

RALLYE CHRONOGRAPH
Fred Lip's dynamic involvement in the world of sports, and particularly motor sports, is no secret. Starting out on motorcycles in the 1920s, with which he set numerous records, Fred Lip turned to the automotive world after becoming CEO of the family watch manufacturer Lip in 1945, as a great enthusiast of mechanics and innovation. At the helm of the world's 7th largest watchmaking company, and France's leading watchmaking company in 1962, Fred Lip combined his passion for the watchmaking world with his affinity for motor sports, two fields in which precision engineering plays a vital role. On his instructions, Fred Lip had racing cars built by some of the leading manufacturers of the day, including Ferrari and Lamborghini. The style of the “Rallye” collection is rooted in Fred Lip's lifelong quest to combine the agility of his company's management with the dynamism of the world of speed and the prestige offered by motor sports.
