The sharp contrast of blue and Red Bull Racing team colors conjures the feel of an adrenaline rush, reflecting the vitality of Formula1 race car. The blue 24-hour disk-shaped indicator at the 9 o’ clock position contrasts harmoniously with the red indicators circling the watch face and the red tip on the second hand. The watch face and bezel in carbon fiber is a reminder of the lightweight, yet strong, carbon used to build the Formula1 race car body.
