![]() ![]() This year again, Frederique Constant is delighted to announce their continuing partnership with the Riva Historical Society. In 1998, the Riva Historical Society was founded with the aim of locating and aiding in the conservation and restoration of the magnificent Riva boats. Carlo Riva exhibited his passion through the design of the sleek, wooden power boats that graced the planet’s finest lakes from 1950. Spurred on by this purpose, the Swiss luxury brand has partnered with the exclusive collector’s event, the Concours d’Elegance in Lake Tahoe and will award two Runabout timepieces to the winners of the Best in Marque Class and Best in Show category. The beautiful classical wooden sportsboats are inspiration for our super successful Runabout watch collection, and exemplify the company’s core challenge to Live Your Passion,” said Frederique Constant CEO, Peter Stas. “Frederique Constant has been proud sponsor of the Lake Tahoe Concours d’Elegance since 2010. The ‘ Frederique Constant Gold Package’ and the ‘ Frederique Constant Stainless Steel Package’ will offer visitors exclusive discounts to all events and an unparalleled experience of these timeless vessels. In addition, Frederique Constant will sponsor two very special packages for out of town guests, partnering with the Concours d’Elegance and Squaw Valley Resort. Each boat, finely restored to their former glory of hand-polished wooden hulls and chrome accents, will glisten on the pristine waters of Lake Tahoe under clear blue skies, turning the heads of over 5,000 spectators. This year’s event will feature nearly 100 vintage and classic boat entries from runabouts and racers to unique utility boats and custom built wooden yachts, dating back to pre and post-World War II, including Chris Crafts, Gar Woods, and of course the legendary Rivas. Held on August 8th – 9th, the 2014 collectors’ event and prestigious wooden boat show will relocate to the Lake’s West Shore at Obexer’s Boat Company. Homewood, Lake Tahoe, CA (August 8th, 2014): Swiss watch manufacture Frederique Constant embodies its brand message to ‘Live your passion,’ returning to the 42nd Annual Lake Tahoe Concours d’Elegance as a title sponsor for the fourth consecutive year. ![]()
