Racing Legend Hurley Haywood and his Watches

If you're a fan of motor racing, you're likely familiar with Hurley Haywood. This race car driver has had an illustrious career, with victories at prestigious events such as the 24 Hours of Daytona, the 12 Hours of Sebring, and the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Throughout his five-decade partnership with Porsche and Rolex, Haywood has become a true legend in road racing.

In a recent interview, Haywood shared stories about his racing career and his collection of watches, many of which have sentimental value. His close association with Rolex and Porsche has resulted in a remarkable assortment of timepieces that celebrate his success in both the professional and personal aspects of his life.

The Watches that Tell Haywood's Story

Among the watches Haywood showcased were a two-tone Rolex Daytona 16523, which he received for winning the 1991 24 Hours of Daytona, and a Rolex Datejust 16220 that he wears on a matching oyster bracelet. He also shared his vintage gold Datejust 1611, given to him by his husband to commemorate their marriage. Another notable piece in his collection is a unique Rolex Cellini 6633, which Rolex presented to Haywood to fulfill his need for a more dressy watch.

Haywood's Daytona collection also includes a modern reference 116515, presented to him for being the Grand Marshal at the 24 Hours of Daytona in 2013. He also owns a Rolex Yacht-Master 16622, which Rolex gifted him after 30 years of collaboration and which he casually handed to someone during Monterey Car Week. One of his latest additions is a modern "Pepsi" GMT-Master 126710BLRO, commemorating 50 years of working with Rolex.

Haywood's collection is not limited to Rolex. He also has a Porsche Design Chronograph 1, a gift from Porsche to celebrate his 1973 win at the 24 Hours of Daytona. Other watches in his collection include an Omega Constellation and his grandfather's pocket watch, which features a tiny metal photobook with portraits of his family members.

This comprehensive range of watches reflects Haywood's successful career and his passion for timepieces. His collection highlights the deep connection between the worlds of racing and watches, and his long-standing relationship with Rolex is evident throughout.

Haywood's watches tell the story of a remarkable racing career and the sentimental moments that have shaped his life. They serve as tangible reminders of his achievements and the lasting partnerships he has forged with both Rolex and Porsche.

The interview with Haywood was made possible thanks to the cooperation of the Brumos Collection, a working museum that showcases the history of Brumos Racing and its association with Porsche. The museum is located in Jacksonville, Florida, and is a must-visit for any automotive and racing enthusiast.

Overall, the interview offers a rare glimpse into the life of a racing legend and the significant role that watches play in his personal and professional journey.
