Horology By The Sea is proud to present the ultra sporty "Flying Finn VB77" from S.U.F Helsinki as a tribute to Finnish Formula One racer, Valtteri Bottas. This VB77 follows in the footsteps of S.U.F’s original tribute to another ‘Flying Finn’ – motorcycling’s Jarno ‘Paroni’ Saarinen – and it has been designed closely with Valtteri. It has unique details that cannot be found in any other S.U.F model, such as its open-worked dial’s racy four-way color scheme and a 77 on the 7th of the month, as a nod to Valtteri's racing number.
A solid caseback protects an automatic winding Soprod A10 caliber. The movement on arrival at S.U.F is stripped down and thoroughly fine-tuned and re-oiled to Stepan’s stringent standards. The movement operates at 4Hz and delivers a power reserve of 42 hours. The case is WR to 100M/330ft.
The Stainless Steel case with DLC coating measures 44mm x 9.2mm x 53.4mm lug-to-lug. Furnished on an OEM racing style blue calfskin strap with DLC coated Sarpaneva pin buckle.
This watch is available for pre-order with an approximate ETA of 4 weeks. To place a deposit, please call or email brandon@horologybythesea.com. If you wish to pay in full you may do so using the checkout process... thank you!
