The Group C Turbo Sport is Autodromo's follow-up to their original 2023 digital watch, and it pushes the concept further by combining analog and digital display in a single instrument-inspired package. The reference point is the turbocharged endurance racing era of the 1980s and early 1990s — Group C prototypes, cockpit tachometers, and the visual language of motorsport electronics from that period. The result is an anodized aluminum case with a debossed grid dial, a central analog display drawn from period tachometer aesthetics, and an LCD window at 6 o'clock that handles the digital functions. It's the kind of watch that's unambiguously in on its own reference without being a costume about it. The 38.5mm case is CNC-milled anodized aluminum with a satin bead-blasted finish, coming in grey, gold, and silver anodized colorways. The caseback is 316L stainless steel with brushed finishing, polished bevels, and a paint-filled logo. A sapphire crystal sits up top, and the watch is water-resistant to 50 meters. The case runs 11.4mm thick and 40mm lug-to-lug — compact and wearable. Straps are custom FKM rubber with a nylon inlay, a tactile detail that keeps the motorsport material story coherent, running 20mm at the lug and 18mm at the buckle. The movement is quartz with an EL backlight and a feature set built for utility rather than spec-sheet padding: 1/100 second chronograph, triple time zone (one analog, two digital), daily alarm, and 12H/24H format switching. The LCD window at 6 o'clock handles the digital time zones and alarm readout while the analog dial carries the main timekeeping — a sensible division that keeps both displays legible without crowding.
