The Bólido mechanical timepieces boast a distinctly modern aesthetic that is achieved thanks to the design work of Simon Husslein who teamed up with Pierre Nobs to create the stylish watch. Featuring a Swiss movement, the Bólido watch has a somewhat unusual aesthetic thanks to the uneven casing and the crown that has been placed at the 12 o'clock point rather than the traditional 3 o'clock spot.
The Bólido mechanical timepieces come in several color options and have a strap that has been installed onto the bottom of the watch rather than to the top portions or threaded through. This creates a somewhat abstract look that further accentuates the modern, clinical aesthetic of the timepiece that comes in several color options.
