This special-edition Black Bay Chrono is all about lightness, legibility, and legacy. Using carbon fibre across the case, bezel, end-links, and sub-counters (the latter simply to show they can) reduces weight dramatically – ideal for timing with speed and precision. The “racing white” dial, punctuated by carbon fibre sub-counters, takes visual cues from the 2025 Visa Cash App Racing Bulls Formula One Team car. It’s a motorsport marvel, backed by COSC-certified accuracy and five decades of chronograph excellence.
