In 2011, Bell & Ross added two new models to its popular BR S Collection: the BR S Heritage and the BR S Steel. One in ceramic, the other in stainless steel, they are both ideal additions to this collection of elegantly proportioned watches and their equally innovative component materials.
These models come in thinner and more elegant case measuring 39 mm – A size suitable for everyday use, an ergonomic case with a remarkably thin profile, all in line with the four fundamental Bell & Ross principles: readability, functionality, accuracy and water-resistance.
BR S HERITAGE
The timepieces from BRS Heritage line are inspired by the cockpits of yesteryear. The anti-reflective matte black ceramic case is inspired by the colour of the instrument panel, which was designed to both remove reflections and contrast with the panel’s dials for easy reading. Its aged, sand-colored hands, numerals and indices and its natural leather strap give it the appeal and appearance of military watches of days gone by. Straddled between yesterday and today, the BR S HERITAGE draws its inspiration from the past yet uses the most modern techniques to restore the effects of passing time.
