DESIGNED WITH THE modern cosmopolite in mind, the advent of BR 05 has led to the birth of a whole new "Urban" world in the Bell & Ross universe. Beginning with a simple, automatic model with a date feature in 2019, the elegant-meets-sporty collection has since grown to encompass a chronograph, a skeleton dial, and a GMT series, while perpetuating the aeronautical heritage of Bell & Ross and the visual signature of the "round within the square."
"The BR-X5 originates from the BR 05, which originates from the BR 01, which originates from the cockpit", explains the company.
In the latest development, the BR 05 reaches a high note in the form of the BR-X5. With the letter "X" symbolizing experimentation and the future, the BR-X5 represents a quantum leap both in terms of design and technical innovation. The avant-garde timepiece is powered by a manufacture movement, BR CAL 323, designed by Swiss watchmaking specialist Kenissi, featuring a personalized oscillating weight and a variable-inertia balance wheel beating at a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour (4Hz) has a power reserve of approximately 70 hours. This so-called "weekend proof" capacity allows you to put your watch down on Friday evening and pick it up on Monday morning without having to wind it up.
