HERE TODAY, GONE TOMORROW. This sentiment is central to the philosophy of memento mori, which embraces death rather than fears it. The concept was heavily explored throughout art history, from 16th-century still-life paintings to Baroque tomb sculptures. It eventually made its way into timepieces as watches became more popular. Skull cases, which open to reveal a watch, were especially popular in the 17th century.
Bell & Ross revived the Skull trend in watchmaking in 2009 with the release of the first watch in its Skull collection, the BR 01 Skull. Ten years later, the new Cyber Skull confirms Bell & Ross’ prominent position within contemporary watch design. The plan was to design a Cyber case that resembled a stealth aircraft. It was first available in matte black ceramic, then in this new BR 01 Cyber Skull Bronze.
Today, Bell & Ross introduces the Cyber Skull Bronze, the latest addition to the series. The iconic Cyber Skull, this time in bronze, assumes the form of an ultra-modern faceted style of this avant-garde model that projects this family into the future.
