To recap: Bell&Ross make big fat aviator watches. They are expensive. Now they have a smaller line of solid gold pieces with considerably less geek cred. We encourage you, then, to feast your eyes on a watch more expensive than your car yet with no mechanical improvements over a $100 Seiko. Feast your eyes on the Instrument BRS Gold.
I love Bell&Ross. I really do. They took the Big Watch craze and made something cool, techie, and elegant. But B&R: please stop milking this cow. She’s really hurting right now and each new iteration (“Now in black! Now in blue!”) reminds us that there aren’t any new ideas coming out of B&R HQ right now.
Because he wants to reach for the stars and explore the ocean depths, because he lives out his passions to the full, man has always measured himself against time… to turn a few seconds into a moment of eternity.
Master watchmakers, engineers, designers and professional users combine their skills and experience with a unique objective in mind – to create a utilitarian watch – with the motto being that the essential is never compromised by the superfluous.
