The Watch
Here we have a 2020 Autodromo Group B Series 2 inspired by the Group B Rally cars that were built with space-aged materials and jacked up for the race. A tonneau-shaped 39mm brushed stainless steel mid-case with a slim profile and distinctive angled drilled lugs, a case thickness of 9.5mm and a lug-to-lug length of 50.5mm give the watch an impressive wrist presence. On the right side, is a hexangular signed crown. The smooth Titanium bezel holds a flat sapphire crystal with a chamfered edge that lifts it above the striking multi-dimensional orange/yellow dial, inspired by the Lancia 037 one of the legendary rally cars of the 1980s, a raised 60-minute chapter ring with orange indexes marking the hours, resembling the tachometer of this iconic car, the centre disc has two screws and the distinctive Autodromo hands outlined in yellow complemented by a tapered yellow sweeping second hand. At 12 o’clock we have the Autodromo motif and at 6 o’clock “Group B'' in a stylised font. On the reverse, a Titanium screwed-down case back with the Autodromo logo in the centre, inside an automatic Miyota Cal. 9015, 24 jewels, 28,800 beats per hour, this premium movement has hand winding and hacking for your convenience. The watch comes fitted with its original 22mm Autodromo integrated style bracelet brushed stainless steel with a signed deployment clasp and the watch comes with its Autodromo presentation box and paperwork.
Personal Note
I have sold multiple Autodromo over the years but haven't had any in a while, then two come along in the course of a few weeks and both are the same model but different variations. This is a classic Autodromo in look and design, inspired by the automotive industry and it is instantly recognisable as their design, that is why I love what Autodromo create.
