Much like the cars created by RUF, the NEZUMI x RUF Voiture Chronograph, ref. VQ2S.901, is much more than the sum of its parts. A fine, perforated leather band flanks either end of the steel case, which houses a RUF green chronograph watch face surrounded by a black tachymeter. This timepiece is the ideal wrist-wear for an auto enthusiast setting down laps on the track or measuring their speed.
RUF Automobile was founded in 1939 when Alois Ruf Sr. established a service garage and tour company in Pfaffenhausen, Germany, even building a bus for the company himself. During a bus tour, a Porsche 356 crashed in front of Alois Sr. who then helped the driver and offered to repair the car. The experience sparked a passion for Porsche and the repair project became the first Porsche the Ruf family would own.

It wasn’t long after that the entire business had shifted gears towards a single-minded focus on the marque.
RUF broke into the automotive world by creating the world’s fastest production car in 1987. The RUF CTR “Yellowbird” was the pinnacle of performance in its era — simple, elegant, and reliable — a formula the company maintains in its cars to this day.

The connection between watches and cars goes beyond a shared philosophy — it is artistic as well. The efficient interaction of parts and the emotions they drive is what motivates the horologist and mechanic alike. It is also what motivates the user – the driver or the watch wearer.
So, we are thrilled to present the NEZUMI x RUF Voiture Chronograph ref. VQ2S.901, inspired by Estonia and Alois RUF and designed in Sweden by David Campo, founder and creative director of Nezumi Studios and the classic Porsche club, Roughneck Brigade.
