SENSE OF DIRECTION

Bell & Ross managing director Fabien de Nonancourt discusses the significance of the BR 03-92 Radiocompass and what has been instrumental in the success of the brand

BELL & ROSS started creating watches inspired by aeronautical and military instruments in 1994. The brand has since become an essential reference in the field of professional aviation watches. Its models draw their inspiration from the design of onboard instruments.

The BR 03-92 Radiocompass, which takes its name from a radio navigation tool, the radio compass, is distinguished by its original coloured hands that guarantee optimal readability. Both modern and fun, this new watch joins the iconic Flight Instruments collection from Bell & Ross. This family, created in 2010, incorporates air navigation tools into horological pieces. The timepieces that make it up are highly successful.

Upon the launch of the Radiocompass, we had the pleasure of finding out more about the watch, the original instrument, and the importance of having a distinct sense of direction and community spirit from Fabien de Nonancourt, managing director of Bell & Ross, accompanied by Mr. Tong Chee Wei, general manager of Bell & Ross Asia.

Please give us a brief introduction on the Flight Instruments collection - how is it distinct from the other main collections under Bell & Ross.
