Bell & Ross is no ordinary watch making company, but one dedicated to professional timepieces that would meet the highest demands in terms of a watch’s technical functions. With just one declared purpose, that of creating practical timepieces, Bell & Ross was founded in 1992 after recruiting the best watch makers in the world, specialized in aircraft technologies and other professional fields of activity. With a strong technical background, Bell & Ross focused on manufacturing timepieces that would resist in the most extreme situations, from variations of temperatures, to water and space conditions. The brand dedicated everything to creating unique timepieces that would serve as reliable timekeeping instruments for pilots, divers or astronauts.

        Although emphasizing unique and appealing features of design, the watches proposed by Bell & Ross are not designed to be just worn in the office, they are designed to face the utmost dangerous situations and display technical features envied by other watch making brands.

        The legendary Instrument BR collection introduced by Bell & Ross was extended with the manufacturing of the brand’s latest innovation, called the BR 01-92 Radar Watch. This watch follows the same credo expressed by the brand; more specifically adopts a functional purpose more than anything. Although the designers from Bell & Ross declared that the watches’ practical use was a primordial aspect, it’s quite easy to see that the design of the Bell & Ross watches has not been neglected in any way.

        Quite original and unseen before, the design of the new Bell& Ross BR 01-92 Radar Watch features a rectangular stainless steel case measuring 46 mm in diameter. For a more contemporary look and for a better resistance to accidental falls, the case construction was covered in a black carbon outside layer. The case construction is equipped with a shock absorption system that protects the mechanism and it can also guarantee 100 m of water resistance.

        The main functions of the new Bell& Ross BR 01-92 Radar Watch are displayed uniquely on an all black dial that imitates the dashboard of an aircraft. Based on a radar theme, the dial presents the hours, minutes and seconds on concentric disks. The disk from the margin of the dial indicates the hours through a yellow segment indicator, the disk inside the hour’s disk indicates the minutes through a yellow segment while the smallest disk indicates the seconds through a florescent green segment. Mesmerizing and impressive, the dial definitely brings a fresh breeze of originality and innovation, being the most attractive element on this watch.

        The main functions of the Bell& Ross BR 01-92 Radar Watch are assured by an ETA 2892 self-winding movement crafted from a material whose composition has still remained secret, being developed with the help of advanced aircraft technologies.

        The new Bell& Ross BR 01-92 Radar Watch makes use of a rubber strap fitted with a stainless steel and carbon fiber folding clasp and will be manufactures in a limited edition of 500 pieces.
