TUSTIN, Calif. – September 18, 2012 – Jorg Gray, an American watch brand designed to define your time, announced today the release of its limited edition, signature timepiece in concurrence with brand ambassador and MotoGP racer, Ben Spies. The announcement quickly follows news of Spies signing with the Ducati MotoGP team for the 2013 season. The countdown is swiftly approaching for Jorg Gray and Ben Spies fans alike to purchase one of the thousand monogrammed timepieces before it is too late.

The Ben Spies Limited Edition Jorg Gray 6700-11 has a 50mm solid stainless steel case with a two-toned plated bezel featuring a layered dial with applied index, and a high precision Miyota chronograph movement with date display under a scratch resistant mineral crystal lens. Timepiece aficionados will appreciate the attention to detail on the customized Ben Spies autographed back plate. The watch is polished off with an integrated silicone strap with a deployment buckle, and is water resistant up to 100 meters.

Admirers can purchase the limited edition timepiece at select Jorg Gray authorized dealers around the world or online at www.jorggray.com for $695.00 USD.

“I spend a lot of time on the track prepping for the next race,” said Jorg Gray brand ambassador and MotoGP racer, Ben Spies. “Knowing I have such a loyal fan base is motivation to get back on the bike day after day. Collaborating with Jorg Gray on this custom timepiece is my way of giving back to the fans and saying thank you for the support I’ve received over the years.”

The timepiece collaboration between Ben Spies and Jorg Gray began shortly after Jorg Gray welcomed Spies as a brand ambassador in early 2012. With his unique riding style, Spies has defied the norm with his exceptional rise to success and passion for his field – two traits Jorg Gray strives to uphold. Spies continues to hold the record for longest AMA Superbike winning streak seven years running, is the first World Champion for Yamaha World Superbike Team, and gained the first MotoGP win for an American since 2006 at Assen TT last year. His tenacity, attitude, and professionalism align perfectly with the brand attributes inherent to the Jorg Gray brand.

“Ever since we welcomed Ben into the Jorg Gray family, there has been high demand for a Ben Spies/Jorg Gray collaborative timepiece,” said Jorg Gray president, Trevor Gnesin. “His fans are so loyal and supportive of whatever venture he takes on – and Ben really mirrors that same passion in his own work on and off the track. Ben was extremely dedicated and excited to give his fans a piece of his legacy and we are excited to help him achieve that goal through the debut of the JG6700-11.”
