It all starts with an idea.
The designers at BBS are continuously reinventing the classic wheel design. This requires numerous sketches, drafts and computer graphics, which are created in BBS’ in-house design studio in idyllic Schiltach.

Prototyping
The history of BBS began over 50 years ago in idyllic Schiltach. Even today, craftsmanship is at the heart of every high-quality BBS wheel. After checking the technical feasibility, individual prototypes – the first 3D designs – are created from the sketches and draft designs. Each and every BBS wheel is unique. From the prototype and its subsequent development through to mechanical processing, each BBS wheel is finished by hand.

Foundry
To transform the aluminum, which has been heated to over 1,000 degrees Celsius, into a stunning BBS light alloy wheel, our foundry workers require an immense amount of skill as well as a number of high-precision tools. The liquid metal is first temporarily stored in four holding furnaces before it is poured into the machine furnaces. The low-pressure casting process is when the liquid raw material is poured into the mold. The wheel blank is then cooled in a water bath. After about seven minutes, the newly created BBS wheel is still at a temperature of 400 degrees Celsius.

Quality control
Very few companies are as consistently associated with their pursuit of excellence, innovative solutions and original approaches as BBS. From the very beginning, BBS light alloy wheels have proven their precision and functionality under the most extreme conditions. Following the casting process, all rims undergo an X-ray inspection in a highly specialized process.

Flow forming and thermal treatment
Depending on its design, the light alloy wheel is subjected to thermal treatment and the flow forming process. In the flow forming process, the rim well is rolled out under high pressure and the material is compacted. The thermal treatment takes about six hours. The rims undergo another round of thermal treatment at a temperature of over 500 degrees Celsius to achieve the perfect strength. Nothing is left to chance in the BBS manufacturing process. Following a quenching water bath, the wheels are put in the furnace at around 150 degrees for a further six hours to loosen up. This cycle significantly improves the mechanical characteristics of the wheels.

Precision machining
Drilling, milling, turning: Highly specialized CNC machines specially developed for BBS process each wheel to its final dimensions within a matter of seconds. During finishing, each wheel is deburred and checked for any unevenness. The highly qualified employees of BBS check that every single BBS alloy wheel meets our high quality standards once more before sending them off to the paint shop.

Lacquer finish
A perfect shine, beautiful surface finish and long-lasting quality are the ingredients for every BBS light alloy wheel: alloy wheels of the highest standards, created with perfect craftsmanship and manufactured using state-of-the-art technologies. A perfect shine, beautiful surface finish and long-lasting quality are the ingredients for every BBS light alloy wheel: alloy wheels of the highest standards, created with perfect craftsmanship and manufactured using state-of-the-art technologies. Our paint shop in Herbolzheim satisfies the most stringent technical requirements. After the base coat has been applied, this is where the light alloy wheels are coated with the desired color. Drying, painting and special surface finish treatments are carried out at our factory in Herbolzheim using state-of-the-art technologies.

Processing center
Every BBS light alloy wheel is finished at our processing center in Herbolzheim. A wide number of customization options are available, which enables the rims to be made even more unique. Burnishing, pad printing or even lasering and ceramic polishing are just some of the possible finishes for BBS wheels. The result is high-quality light alloy wheels with a unique shine and an unprecedented range of customization options. True to the tradition of BBS, the material, surface design and quality of the wheels are continuously being improved.

Casio Tough Solar No Lighted dial, Just Date Box
Color: Green, Style: Modern
A picture of how it lights at night would kill all sales if anyone needs a good readable watch in the dark with a lighted dial as the description says. Just the little LCD insert lights up so it shows just the day and seconds. I guess the date of the day can't fit in the little rectangular LCD insert. I collect watches and this Casio Tough Solar is a superb analog dial watch for working with. This one is solar, so the price is good for that feature, as most Casios may be quartz battery types. This one is for an off shore sea worker so it will stand up to the tough work he does. I wore my Casio, a digital solar, for 14 years now and I build, work hard and these watches from Casio can last surprisingly long. Other brand watches would finally give out for one reason or another as a work watch. The price for this one is affordable for a simple but tough watch that will last over a decade, maybe two.

Best Value Field Watch
Color: Green, Style: Modern
I am a deployed military person. I bought an expensive "field watch" for over two hundred dollars. It broke after being dropped once. I ordered this watch as a temporary watch to use until I can get home and get a replacement for the "expensive" watch. I can tell you without a doubt, this is a much better field watch than the 200+ dollar watch. It has a large face that is easy to read on the move. Although the viewing area for the face is large, the watch is surprising light. I wear it while exercising and doing military duties. I recently competed in a 15 mile ruck run and didn't even notice it on. Probably the most comfortable watch I have ever had. The lumination on the hands and numbers is pretty impressive for the price, and is very visible for a few hours. The digital portion gives you options of timer, stop watch, date, other time zone, and alarm. I am far sighted, so the digital window can be hard to read while moving or when using the light. If I have my reading glasses on, there is no issue. For military personnel, the light on the watch only works on the digital display, and therefore gives off very little light while still making the digital time very visible. You can easily maintain light discipline and check the time, timer, or stop watch without creating a glow like other watches do. I usually don't wright reviews, but I love this watch that much. It gives you the best of an analogue and a digital watch in a light, comfortable, dirt cheap package.

The AQS810W (5208 module) series is one of Casio's best, in terms of being durable, reliable and problem-free.
Color: Green, Style: Modern
This is my second AQS810W... my first is about five years old, and it's black with white lettering. The "Tough Solar" and "Illuminator" are long-gone, rinsed away by automotive degreasers and other auto repair chemicals, but I like it better without those pronouncements, anyway. Army Green, in my opinion, is an excellent color on this watch. The fact that this is not at all a glossy watch, but a matte (or semi-gloss?) finish makes the color attractively subtle. I like it even more than the black. Other than the color, though, it's the exact same watch I've been very happy with for the last five years. Easy to setup, rugged and sturdy, just the right size (for me) and an industrial, utilitarian look. This is a very comfortable watch to wear - light in weight, flexible band, no sharp edges or uncomfortable shapes. I spent a few weeks trying to decide what watch I was going to get, and I came to the conclusion that being solar-powered was my highest priority, followed by being quickly readable. Perhaps it is just me, but I can read a analog watch faster than a digital one - just a quick glance. I kept coming back the Casio's AQS810W series, and it came down to the darker, matte-finished colors. Having said all of that, this series of Casio watches is virtually trouble-free. Read the reviews! VERY FEW failures, defects, water intrusions. People who don't like this series of watches either find them incomprehensible to set or are unhappy with the small digital display or the lack of a backlight for the analog dial. The watches themselves are largely bulletproof, possessing anvil-like reliability and durability. They even have a feature that if the watch is dropped or knocked around too hard, and the analog hands get out of sync with the digital display, you can quickly and easily re-sync them. This series is one of Casio's best, in terms of being problem-free. Yes, they have acrylic crystals, not mineral glass, and they do scratch. Simply buff the scratches out, and it is as good as new. Worried about the band breaking or falling apart? On a regular basis, take the watch into the shower and scrub the whole thing with an old toothbrush and some shampoo. Not only will it be clean and look great, but removing the body oils, sweat and salts makes the bands last and last. That's the secret to getting Casio resin bands to live long lives. The analog dial is not lit, but neither is the dial on my Rolex or Omega. Just find a light source to reflect on the hands, and you're in business. Just like we've done for many years. Anyway, you can tell I am a fan. Buy with confidence, but download the pdf version of the Casio 5208 module operating instructions, and it'll be easier to set up the watch if you aren't very tech savvy. If you like the way this series of watches looks, then I'm pretty confident you'll be very happy with your purchase. Have fun!

Great everyday watch
Color: Green, Style: Modern
I still own an older, cheaper Casio from 1994 and it'd been through the wringer. 130' of depth and banging onto a shipwreck couldn't even kill it Paint splashes and scratches to the face have made the dial harder to read but it still works. Even the battery change every 4 years is simple and cheap and in short, I CANNOT KILL THIS FREAKIN' WATCH. While the old watch still works, it's a little dated. Thus I looked into a newer, updated model of Casio watch for the next decade or so. This model caught my eye with a simple analog interface (Hate Digital watches), but still offered features such as an alarm, Stop-Watch, Timer, Alarm and even charged via Solar to eliminate even the battery replacement. I love this new watch. Good looks with a easy to read Analog face in dual colors (White for minutes, blaze orange for hours) and even glows in the dark. The controls are simple enough and I use both the Stopwatch and Timer on a near daily basis. Probably the sole drawback is the size of the digital readout. It could be a little larger, but maybe that's age creeping up on me. Altogether a darn good everyday watch that has decent looks, practicality and should last quite a long time.
