Heuer erbrachte die chronometrische Dienstleistung ohne weiteres Sponsoring. Die Unterzeichnung blieb Enzo Ferrari, dem Commendatore, höchstpersönlich vorbehalten.Und zwar bei einem Mittagessen im Cavallino. Die Bonbons für Heuer: Alle Ferrari-Fahrer trugen das markante Firmenlogo auf ihrer Montur und einen goldenen Automatik - Chronographen am Handgelenk. ” In diesen Jahren”, so der heute 71-jährige, “konnte ich praktisch alle Ferrari-Fahrer persönlich kennen lernen. Um ihre Uhren entgegenzunehmen und unsere Fabrik zu besuchen, kamen Niki Lauda, Jacky Ickx, Clay Regazzoni, Mario Andretti, Carlos Reutemann, Gilles Villeneuve und andere nach Biel. Die zehn Jahre währende Kooperation mit der italienischen Nobelmarke sowie das Logo auf den roten Boliden brachte uns einen enormen Prestigegewinn.”

Hanhart was a German manufacturer of watches and timers, known specifically for producing high quality pilot`s watches for the german military.

In the late 1950`s / early 1960`s, Hanhard produced a distinctive line of timers for the Ferrari factory racing team, known as the Duostop timers. Each model of the Duostops consisted of a combination of two timers, fitted into a metal case. The timers could be used as a handheld timers, worn on a neck-strap or mounted on the dashboard of the car. The Duostops combined a clever design, some unique engineering and a superb quality of construction, all to provide a useful timing device for the Ferrari racing team.

The Duostops appear to be unique among vintage rally timers in several respects. They were manufactured for Ferrari and represent an early instance of co-branding a product for a motorsport team. (Remmember that in the early 1960`s, Grand Prix racing teams were not lending their names to consumer products.)
