Festina
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Festina is a watch manufacturer. It was founded in 1902 in Switzerland.
It is famous for the Festina cycling team that it used to support, which was caught in 1998 in a doping scandal at the 1998 Tour de France known as the Festina affair. Several members of the team staff were arrested and convicted of trafficking and giving doping substances. Festina is the official time keeper of many of the big cycling stage races such as the Tour de France, the Giro d'Italia and the Vuelta a España.
