Watch Arpiem Tribute TJL 2 "Jacques LAFFITE" Kyalami Tabac
The TJL 3 is an automatic watch designed as a tribute to Jacques Laffite, inspired by the 1979 Formula 1 season, in particular the South American tour known as the "temporada".
That season, the Ligier team, after a complicated year in 1978, returned with the all-new JS11, featuring a V8 Cosworth engine and a chassis optimized for ground-effect aerodynamics. Jacques Laffite and Patrick Depailler won the first two races, with two victories for Laffite.
Despite a promising start, financial constraints and Depailler's accident complicate the rest of the championship, but the season remains a resounding demonstration of the competitiveness of French drivers and teams in Formula 1. Assembly in France, carried out in Bordeaux.
