Bomberg’s provocative BB-01 Automatic

Sharp angles and clean lines, bold colour combinations, and an elegant yet powerful profile – the new Bomberg “BB-01 Automatic” watch is a remarkable modern statement that is perfect yet provocative

Equipped with a Swiss automatic movement and exuding modernity and originality – as evidenced by its crown at 2 o’clock – this urban, sporty piece approaches traditional watchmaking with trademark irreverence. Amongst its distinguishing features is its sapphire crystal that adds an additional layer of brilliance to the details of the dial.

The BB-01 Automatic is the perfect illustration of the iconic Bomberg timepiece, oozing strength of character and self-assurance. The five models fitted on a perforated silicone strap evoke the power and discipline of the motor racing world. The dial decoration is inspired by the spokes of a wheel, like finely cut-out beams that allow the date disc to be glimpsed behind them. Details in anthracite, red, green or blue against a black background match the dots on the strap to great effect.

The BB-01 Automatic is also available in a daring version featuring the provocative symbol – the skull, which is one of Bomberg’s hallmarks. Paired with a real leather strap, in a solid colour, to match the background colour of the dial, it features a stylised black cut-out skull, with Super-LumiNova in relief. Available in red, blue or grey, it underlines the magnetic appeal that the famous death’s head holds for the living.
