Mark Webber is a name synonymous with speed and precision on the race track, but there’s another passion that the former Formula One driver and endurance racer holds dear – his love for watches.

Webber, who hails from Australia, has always been fascinated by timepieces and their intricate mechanisms. He has been collecting watches for many years and his collection boasts some of the most prestigious brands in the industry, including Rolex, TAG Heuer, and Audemars Piguet.

For Webber, watches are not just accessories, but symbols of his dedication to perfection and precision – values that are also deeply ingrained in the world of motorsport. He believes that a good watch is not only a reflection of style and taste, but also a tool that helps him stay on track and manage his time efficiently.

In an interview with Revolution, a luxury watch magazine, Webber expressed his love for watches and how they play a significant role in his life. He revealed that he often wears different watches for different occasions – for example, a more casual watch during the day, and a more sophisticated one for special events.

Webber’s passion for watches extends beyond just collecting them – he has also collaborated with watch brands to create limited edition timepieces that reflect his love for motorsport. One such collaboration was with luxury brand IWC Schaffhausen, which resulted in the creation of the limited edition IWC Pilot’s Watch Chronograph “Tribute to Mark XI”.

Aside from his love for watches, Webber is also known for his illustrious career in motorsport. He started his career in Formula One in 2002, driving for Minardi before moving on to Jaguar, Williams, and eventually Red Bull Racing where he achieved his greatest success. During his time in Formula One, Webber won nine races and stood on the podium 42 times, earning himself a reputation as a fearless and tenacious driver.

After leaving Formula One in 2013, Webber transitioned to endurance racing and joined Porsche’s factory team. He went on to achieve great success in endurance racing, winning the FIA World Endurance Championship in 2015, as well as winning the prestigious 24 Hours of Le Mans in 2015.

Throughout his career, Webber’s love for watches has remained steadfast, serving as a symbol of his dedication to precision and excellence both on and off the track. As he continues to pursue new challenges in his post-racing career, one thing is certain – his love for watches will always be a constant in his life.
