Hand Made Watch by Jonathan Ellery and Bell&Ross
The choice has been made thanks to the creativity of the brand and the iconic status of Bell & Ross watches. Handpicked to work together, Bell&Ross are delighted to have collaborated with Jonathan Ellery in creating a one off unique watch. The artwork for this timepiece is based on Bell & Ross BR01-92 Radar watch, in which three concentric circles rotate to indicate hours, minutes and seconds. This take is a conceptual piece, and telling the time by it requires mastering its rotational rhythms; the explosive motif comes together only twice in 24 hours as the circles rotate.
