BELL & ROSS - New instrument BR 01-92 & 94 Carbon Fiber:International Wristwatches

Limited edition of five hundred per movement.







100% carbon effect

Bell & Ross launch the Carbon Fibre watch, constructed entirely from carbon fibre: case, dial and strap. A first in the watch-making industry with the case fashioned in one block made of layers of carbon fibre superimposed over each other. The ultra-light and extremely strong carbon fibre hones the performance of the watch with optimum wearing comfort whilst strengthening the solidity of the case.


High-tech architecture

The Instrument BR 01 Carbon Fiber case takes its inspiration directly from aeronautical construction techniques. An industry at the cutting edge of research and innovation. The bezel and upper plate with angle ribs make the case even more solid and emphasise the high-tech architecture of the watch. A distinctive, uncompromising design, for optimum performance and an independent character.



Precision engineering

The instrument BR 01 Carbon Fiber is fitted with two types of movement with complementary functions. An automatic chronograph with three counters (hours, minutes and seconds) or an automatic movement with three hands, perfectly readable night and day.

The first watch to be constructed entirely of a carbon fibre case, the instrument BR 01 Carbon Fiber Limited Edition is an avant-garde instrument, demonstrating the brand’s capability for innovative and professional watches.


Bell & Ross:

A passion for military watches
A project to create utilitarian watches suitable for professional use
An inspiration, the aeronautical instrument

 
  Automatic movement and automatic chronograph 


In its permanent quest for innovation and performance, Bell & Ross launches the unprecedented Carbon Fibre watch.
