Christina Watches–Dana was a Danish professional cycling team based in Herning that competed on the UCI Continental Circuits.[1][2] The captain of the team was Michael Rasmussen, who won the climbers jersey at the 2005 and 2006 Tour de France, until he ended his career in early 2013.
Christina Watches was owned by the Danish watch designer Christina Hembo, who bought the Danish UCI continental team Stenca–M1 in December 2010.
On 9 October 2014 Cyclingnews.com reported that the team will fold after the 2014 season as the team owners have chosen to sponsor a handball team.[3] 0711 / Cycling now exists.
