Ressence Type 3 BB2 Black Grade 5 Titanium Black Dial

The Ressence Type 3 BB2 Black is a groundbreaking leap in modern horology, marking Ressence’s commitment to reimagining the fundamentals of mechanical watchmaking. Launched as an evolution in the Type 3 series, this reference stands apart thanks to its oil-filled dial, which creates the optical illusion of the dial graphics being projected onto the sapphire crystal for unmatched legibility and visual intrigue. The ROCS 3.5 movement is a Ressence proprietary system powered by a modified ETA 2824/2, integrating an orbital convex display and a sophisticated patented display module. Grade 5 titanium construction ensures both lightness and durability, complemented by a domed sapphire crystal that accentuates the watch’s unique construction. Its dial exhibits Ressence’s signature eccentric satellite displays, providing hours, minutes, running seconds, day, date, and an oil temperature gauge. While functionally innovative, the Type 3 BB2 Black maintains an understated elegance with its monochromatic black palette and sleek case lines. With a case diameter of 44mm and a remarkable 15mm thickness, the presence on the wrist is bold yet ergonomic, fitting the avant-garde vision of Ressence. Splash resistance offers protection for daily wear, but this is ultimately a technical art piece for serious collectors interested in the crossroads of modern engineering and contemporary design. As oil-filled mechanical watches remain exceedingly rare, the Type 3 BB2 Black solidifies its status as a modern collectible icon. Excellent Condition with EWC pouch and Ressence papers dated 2016. This Type 3 was just serviced by the Ressence service center in Q2/2026.
