Autodromo is a brand that is heavily influenced by auto-culture. The Group B watch is one that takes aesthetic lead from the Group B era which spans 1982-1986 and combines technical excellence with futuristic, exotic materials all enclosed in a bi-metallic case. Constructed from Titanium, the watch is the lightest Group B piece ever created, weighing approximately 10 nickels (52 grams). The watch is encased in a hand-crafted aluminium box and comes with two nylon straps that were inspired by racing harnesses. The Autodromo Group B wristwatch successfully captures high-tech design aesthetics as they were in the 1980’s. Retailing for $925 USD, you can pick one up via Autodromo’s official site.
