Bell & Ross Watches

History of Bell & Ross

The Bell & Ross brand was founded in 1992 by Bruno Belamich and Carlos Rosillo who set the brand’s roots in Paris, France. Many Bell & Ross watch movements are outsourced from other timepiece brands. However, in more recent years, they have started producing significantly more of their own in-house movements, including skeleton dials and tourbillons.

Bell & Ross watches have several highly-coveted product lines including the BR01, BR03, and BR05 collection of watches. As one of the younger luxury watch brands in the industry, Bell & Ross has carefully cultivated a wide range of world renown brand partnerships. For example, the brand created timepieces for the French space program, the French air force, and the BWT Alpine F1 Team.

Bell & Ross watches are available in a wide range of different variants, from basic three-hand aviation-inspired timepieces to more complicated haute-horological designs that are completely encased in sapphire crystal. Many watch enthusiasts are attracted to Bell & Ross timepieces for their daring characteristics, unique overall design, and their distinct square-shaped watch cases. Even those who are not fully immersed in the timepiece industry are still easily able to recognize and admire the true craftsmanship of Bell & Ross watches.

Bell & Ross Collections

BR03: This collection of watches is made up of four main variations that cater to professionals of the land, air, and the sea. The BR03-92 Auto is the ideal aviation instrument that can be worn on the wrist of some of the toughest pilots in the cockpit. The BR03-92 Diver is not only one of a kind, but is the very first square-shaped Diver watch created by Bell & Ross. The BR03-93 GMT is not only ideal for globetrotters and aircraft pilots, but for any watch lover who needs to keep track of multiple different time zones. The BR03-94 Chrono was designed specifically for military personnel by meeting the brand’s four fundamental principles: legibility, functionality, accuracy, and reliability.

BR05: This collection of watches focuses on sleek and modern design while still serving a specific demographic. The BR05 Auto highlights an integrated design with ideal dimensions for everyday wear accompanied by comfortable style and supreme reliability for the city life. The BR05 GMT is the very first dual time watch model in the 05 collection, featuring a more contemporary design and sleek finish that is perfect for urban jetsetters. The BR05 Chrono is iconic to the 05 collection because of its impressive chronograph movement that helps keep track of the fast-paced urban lifestyle.

BRV2: This collection of watches utilizes a more traditional watch design with a round case. The BRV2 Auto has a standard three-hand movement with a bi-directional rotating bezel for supreme timekeeping. The BRV2-93 GMT is equally as modern as it is functional, as it has the capabilities to keep the time in three different time zones simultaneously. The BRV2 Chrono is centered around the beloved chronograph movement with its fixed graduated bezel and tachymeter scale. The screw-down crown and push buttons makes this timepiece completely water resistant.
