Ford Launches Mustang 50 Years Limited Edition Watch

The Mustang is celebrating its 50th anniversary next April and for Ford, and musclecar enthusiasts alike, that's a big deal and a great reason for celebration. Besides a rumored special edition pony and several events, Ford is also readying a bunch of accessories to commemorate the occasion.

Among them shirt or jackets, there's also a limited edition watch manufactured by Shinola in Detroit. Produced in only 1,000 units, the Mustang 50 Years watch features Swiss movements, a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal face and premium black leather for the hand. Also, it is water resistant and comes with the unique Mustang 50 Years logo.

Each of them will be individually numbered at the back and will become available starting October with a $700 price tag.

“Like the Mustang itself, we want our licensed products to convey an attitude of strength, passion and quality,” said John Nens, Ford lead for global brand licensing. “Shinola embodies all of these things and is a perfect fit to celebrate this special moment in automotive history.”

Ford Motor Co. will unveil several Mustang 50 Years products over the next few months, with 50 companies being commissioned to create anniversary products such as shirts, jackets, pinball machines and many more.
