US Bud Pole award winners to get a Tissot

June 2006


Anheuser-Busch will award a Tissot PRS 516 Valjoux NASCAR limited-edition watch to each driver who earns a Budweiser Pole Award in 2006.

The award goes to drivers who complete a lap in less time than any other driver during a NASCAR Nextel event.

Tissot will only make 500 of the Valjoux watches, which feature a chronograph movement, a stainless steel case, carbon dial, black leather strap, and an engraved NASCAR logo on the open case back.

The watch represents one of three NASCAR watches released by Tissot. The timepieces retail at price points ranging from $295 to $1,150.

Bud Pole Award winners will continue to receive a $5,200 bonus from Anheuser-Busch and secure a spot in the season-opening 2007 Budweiser Shootout in Daytona. The driver who wins the most Bud Pole Awards in 2006 will also receive $100,000 from Anheuser-Busch at the season-ending Nextel Banquet in New York.
