Bell & Ross strips it down for the 20th anniversary celebration of the BR-03
Bell & Ross is celebrating 20 years of its iconic BR-03 timepiece, the square sports luxury watch that took the world by storm when it was first unveiled. The instantly recognisable case shape is now paired with an open dial that reveals a new skeleton movement, the automatic BR-CAL.328 calibre. Developed specially for Bell & Ross, its most distinguishing feature is the X-shaped upper bridge. Despite the skeletonisation, the watch delivers timekeeping precision with a 54-hour power reserve.
