DISTINGUISHED TIMEPIECES

BR‑X5 ICE BLUE STEEL

Bell & Ross often finds itself at the cuttingedge of innovative watch design, with its impressive range of aviation and aeronautically-inspired timepieces. In Bell & Ross’ latest timepiece, the French/Swiss brand pairs exceptional design with manufacture movement, unveiling the new BR-X5. Throughout the design a sense of sportiness and practical reliability carry through, these sentiments provided by both its steel construction, as well as its integrated design between the case and matching steel bracelet or open worked rubber strap. Like the case housing it, the dial of the BR-X5 is the product of smart design work, with its style marking a highly refined expression of the original urban instrument shape. Available in two colorways— black and ice blue— each option represents two sides of the brand’s appeal. In the suave black, classic and timeless noir are channeled with bright, sharp accents of red highlighting the look. While in the ice blue, the tasteful spirit of sport and play which has defined the urban BR 05 is on full view.

BR‑X5. CARBON ORANGE (high‑tech version)

With its avant-garde and daring design, and attractive functionality, the BR-X5 symbolises the developments made by the brand to attract connoisseurs and lovers of fine watchmaking. Faithful to its aeronautical heritage, the watch features the household ‘round within the square’ design, which allowed the French-born brand to be easily recognisable since the beginning. Like the earlier models in steel, the latest BR-X5. Carbon Orange brings together two functions that are particularly useful in everyday life: an oversized vertical date and the power reserve indicator. This double display, which is as legible as it is distinctive, gives the BR 05 family a unique look while making it instantly recognisable when on the wrist. At the heart of the case lies one of the major assets of this unique collection - BR-CAL .323. The automatic mechanism belongs to the world of manufacturer movements. The BR-CAL.323 calibre designed by Kenissi, a Swiss specialist movementmaker focused on exclusivity, raises the BR-X5 to the heights of precision.
