Endurance 20th anniversary Mar 1-2 2010 - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

ZRWON · 10-30-2009

Now that I am the proud owner of '90 #553 ZR-1, I often think back to all the things that were part of the making and introduction of the ZR-1. IMHO, one of the most impressive was the 3 world and 12 international ENDURANCE records that it established. GM was so proud of that accomplishment that they placed a special 24 hour endurance champ decal on ALL 1991 Corvettes bragging about their quality, realiability & durability ...all things that most felt were lacking in GM products at that time!
I am thinking of making a special wristwatch to commerate the 20th anniversary. What do you think of this idea and would you be interested in buying one for $25 including S&H if I get enough orders?
Something like this:

I'd also appreciate your suggestions about the design to make it better.

Maybe have the writing follow the curve of the watch or say World Record instead of Endurance? Just some ideas.
