Born in 1966 in the UK, Steven Liquorish has achieved a number of accolades in the business world. He also always had a huge passion for motor racing.

He started racing in 2006 participating in the UK BMW Mini John Cooper Works series with a number of podiums and moved up to the Porsche GT3 Cup Challenge in 2011, finishing 3rd in the championship.

He also took part in the Porsche Carrera World Cup at the Nürburgring in July 2011, in front of over 500,000 spectators. Steven is currently competing in the Porsche GT3 Cup Challenge for the 2012 UK championship, and won the opening round at Snetterton with further podiums and another win at Croft, and is currently positioned second in the 2012 championship.

There was no doubt that the determined and skilled asphalt warrior would be a perfect ambassador for our GRAHAM racing wrist machines.

GRAHAM traces its origins to London clockmaker George Graham (1673-1751) who is considered as the father of modern watch making. He is known as the father of the chronograph as he invented the start and stop device of the chronograph. The dead-beat and cylinder escapement, the mercury pendulum to compensate the influence of temperature on pendulums, to name a few. He also built the master clock for Greenwich Royal Observatory which timed most of the 18th century and lots of science instruments for astronomers and physicists. GRAHAM was revived in 1995 and is today a privately owned Swiss watch company. GRAHAM SA creates and manufactures its watches in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland.
