Watchmaker Bell & Ross revealed a golden edition of he sporty-chic BR 05 watch. The BR 05 Skeleton Golden features the iconic “round within the square” design. The flat sapphire crystal with anti-reflective treatment is held by the satin-brushed steel bezel, which is fixed by four polished steel slotted screws. This provides water resistance up to 100 meters. Underlined by two polished 45° bevels, the case middle is satin-brushed on both sides. The caseback is fitted with an anti-reflective sapphire crystal allowing the rear of the movement to be seen, with an emphasis on the 360° oscillating weight. The whole timepiece does not exceed 5.45 mm in thickness.
To maximize the readability, the large numerals were replaced with baton-shaped applique golden indexes. The skeletonized baton-shaped hands are coated with Grade X1 White 10 Super- LumiNova®, a substance with green luminescent emissions.
The translucent dial reveals the watch’s mechanical secrets. The movement appears transparently and through contrasting effects, under the colored surface of the dial. The plate and the upper bridge of this movement, built in micro-blasted ruthenium, benefited from high precision work.
The work of integrating the central link of the bracelet into the case is an additional indication of the level of technicality of this watch.
The integration of the bracelet into the case is carried out according to the brand’s codes while at the same time bringing another dimension to the watch: the first link is part of the case. This type of design has been a reference since the 1970s and when we transpose it to Bell & Ross, we obtain a result that is both obvious and ergonomic. – Bruno Belamich, co-founder and Creative Director of Bell & Ross
The structure of this attachment system allows the BR 05 Skeleton Golden to be attached either to a steel bracelet or with a rubber strap. This new timepiece is available in a limited edition of 500 pieces.
