What to know about Autodromo Watches
Dashboards, not dive bezels
Dials and cases borrow from mid-century and 1970s–80s motorsport instruments — gauge-style dials, cushion and tonneau shapes, bright liveries.
One designer still runs it
Industrial designer Bradley Price founded Autodromo in 2011 and still owns and operates the brand, selling mainly direct-to-consumer.
Swiss and Japanese movements inside
Core lines like Group B, Prototipo, Intereuropa and Monoposto use Swiss and Japanese calibres, priced below much of the design-led watch field.

The brand also makes driving gloves, sunglasses and accessories, and has produced collaborations with Hodinkee and Worn & Wound.
