Collector’s Corner: The Bell & Ross BR 126 Carbon Orange

This week’s featured Swiss watch arrival is Bell & Ross’ BR 126 Carbon Orange, which is a limited edition of 500 watches for the world. As part of their ‘Vintage’ collection which debuted back in 2010, the BR 126 Carbon Orange continues the evolution of the collection with bold color schemes and a unique NATO-style watch strap with thin bands of color at the edges that complement the orange highlights of the hands and dial. Since then, Bell & Ross has used it as the base for a number of limited edition pieces. Inspired by the legibility of a plane’s on-board instruments, the BR 126 Carbon Orange from Bell & Ross is an easy watch to read. With a modern yet classic case size at 41mm, this watch offers a versatility of styles that range from blue jeans to suits, not to mention looks killer with a pair of dark Aviator sunglasses.

The feature we love the most of the Carbon Orange is the ultra-curved high-dome sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating, providing great strength, and better legibility under lights or out in the sun. The steel case has a water-resistance level rated to 100m, and features luminescence on the large Arabic numerals, indicators, and main hands. Running off the BR-CAL.301 automatic (based on the ETA 2894-2), the watch features date and chronograph complications with a 30-minute timer.

So for all those watch enthusiast who love the color orange, whether you’re a University of Miami fan or a die-hard University of Tennessee or Texas alum, the Bell & Ross BR 126 Carbon Orange is an affordable timepiece that would pop in any watch collection.
