The Case and Dial

The WR-45 features a new case design within the Williams Racing range, retaining its tachymeter function for precise timing. The 3-piece Trip-Tick® case construction, treated with DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon), ensures durability and a visually appealing black appearance. The dial adopts a black finish, complemented by white indexes and sub-dials with touches of electric blue, reflecting the Williams Racing color palette.

At 9 o’clock, a small white seconds dial with an electric blue hand adds visual interest, accompanied by a small 30-minute chronograph dial at 3 o’clock and a 12-hour counter at 6 o’clock. Blue emission lume-filled indexes, minute and hour hands, along with a red-framed triangular 12-hour marker on the dial ring, pay tribute to vintage rally timers. The exhibition case back reveals the movement and a custom rotor inspired by Williams Racing car rims, featuring the team’s logo.

The Movement

Powering the WR-45 LIMITED EDITION is the modified Calibre 13 1/4’’’ BE-53AV. This precise movement incorporates 27 jewels, a Glucydur balance wheel, an Anachron balance spring, and a Nivaflex mainspring. Operating at a frequency of 28,800 beats per hour (4Hz), it provides a generous 56-hour power reserve. The rotor, adorned with design elements inspired by Williams Racing, adds a unique touch to the timepiece.
