• Last September, Windsor approached the Motor Speedway about designing a luxury jewelry line commemorating the 100th Running. They felt fans would really enjoy having a unique gift honoring the historic race. IMS agreed.
• Both knew the Indy 500 holds a special place in the hearts of hundreds of thousands of Hoosiers as well as fans across the globe.
• And owning a piece of jewelry commemorating the “Greatest Spectacle in Racing” would be something fans would enjoy during the month of May and treasure forever.
• Under contract with IMS, Windsor is the only jeweler with the officially licensed jewelry collection.
• Windsor enlisted the help of Heather Carpenter to assist in the design of the collection and serve as their ambassador to the racing industry.
