The Grande Odyssée Savoie Mont Blanc 2016

Starting from the Alpine resort of Les Carroz, the twelfth edition of the Grande Odyssée Savoie Mont Blanc 2016 took place from 9 to 20 January.

Hublot was present once again as official partner and timekeeper at the French sporting event. Consisting of ten stages, this international dog sled race passed through a number of Savoie resorts, covering a distance of 1,000 km with a positive gradient of 30,000 metres.

In total, sixteen mushers representing nine nations took part in the competition. The sled drivers were accompanied throughout by 400 high-level canine athletes, much to the delight of enthusiasts who came to enjoy the excitement.

The Vaud firm also paid tribute to the winter competition with its Classic Fusion Aerofusion Chronograph "La Grande Odyssée Savoie Mont Blanc", a limited edition of one hundred pieces. With its attractive lines and satin-polished finish, this model is directly inspired by the world of dog sled racing.
