Swiss luxury watch brand Bell & Ross presents new 41mm version of its emblematic BR 03 watch.
Introduced in 2006, the BR 03 collection embodies Bell & Ross’ identity and style and has been one of its landmarks. The original model featured a 42mm diameter case with the emblematic circle within a square case. Held by four screws, it is reminiscent of the silhouette of cockpit clocks. The BR 03 range now welcomes a slightly smaller version with a 41mm case.
The lightly smaller dimensions of the case are delicate and powerful at the same time. The lugs have now changed from 4.5 mm to 4mm.
The evolution of the BR 03 includes a narrower rubber strap and a new automatic movement: the BR-CAL.302, which offers power reserve of 54 hours. Each timepiece is water-resistant to 100 meters.
The BR 03 collection has revisited three watches with black ceramic cases, and three in polished steel. The collection has now been enriched with a Copper dial model, and one in khaki-colored ceramic.
