New Bell&Ross INSTRUMENT BR HERITAGE
Taking its inspiration directly from aircraft cockpit instrument panels, the INSTRUMENT collection responds to four fundamental principles: legibility, functionality, precision and reliability. The developments of the INSTRUMENT collection parallel the in-depth technological developments within aeronautical instrumentation.
The INSTRUMENT BR 01 is directly inspired by aircraft cockpit on-board instruments from the 1970s.
The INSTRUMENT BR 03 Type Aviation, with its multi-function movement, benefits from technological advances in watch-making, just like the aircraft cockpits of the 2000s.
With the INSTRUMENT BR HERITAGE, Bell & Ross revives the authentic spirit of a collection watch, this time taking its inspiration from military aircraft instruments from the 1940s. The BR HERITAGE inspired by history whilst incorporating the most modern techniques, offers a unique combination of details from its vintage style hands and numerals to its sand-coloured index and its stamped natural leather strap, thus giving it the appeal and appearance of the 1940s in a contemporary military watch. Straddled between yesterday and today, the INSTRUMENT BR HERITAGE draws its inspiration from history yet uses the most modern techniques to restore the effects of passing time. (Bell&Ross press)
