Bentley Racer No. 37

The Case Back & Movement

The circular-brushed, screwed-down case back is adorned with a depiction of a 1930s vintage Bentley racing car at its centre, acid etched into the steel. The modified 11 ½ ligne calibre VB - 24A automatic movement features 26 jewels, perlage and blued screws. Other highlights include a Glucydur balance, an Anachron balance spring and a Nivaflex 1 mainspring. The balance has a frequency of 28,800 bph and features a 38-hour power reserve and a skeletonised, decorated rotor. The movement is suspended in a ring of mu-metal which helps protect it from excessive magnetic forces.
