Footnote
Note from Bamford:
Inside the titanium case of each B80 model is a Swiss-made Sellita SW300-1 movement, complete with 25 jewels. 28,800 VpH, a 56-hour power reserve. Beyond the model, personalisation remains central, with each watch encased in a unique sliding box, decorated in hues reminiscent of old racing cars, central to Bamford London's inspiration. Both classical and bold in presence. The B80 warmly extends a hand to collectors and novices alike through its emphasis on choice: a model to suit all.
