A radio compass is a navigational device that provides bearing based on incoming radio waves from a ground station. Those who know Bell & Ross watches understand the company has a passion for vintage military and aeronautical instruments. The radio compass and other cockpit instruments serve as inspiration for the just-released Bell & Ross BR 03-92 Radiocompass.
A radio compass allows a pilot to navigate with little to no visibility. It is a reliable, functional, precise, and intelligent tool, and so is the BR 03-92 Radiocompass timepiece. Super-Luminova coats the indices and fills the metal, skeletonized hour and minute hands. This ensures the user can tell the time in the darkest conditions.
The dial of the 42mm Bell & Ross BR 03-92 Radiocompass resembles numerous cockpit instruments, including its namesake radio navigation tool. The numbers are angled toward the dial’s center just as they are on cockpit navigational instruments. The Isonorm font designed by the International Standards Organization (ISO) is clean and legible by machines and the human eye. Bell & Ross did not forget a detail when adding the BR 03-92 Radiocompass to its Flight Instruments collection. Finally, the BR-CAL.302 movement is ultra-reliable and has a power reserve of 42 hours. That is more than the time needed to fly from New York City to Singapore and back. Each Bell & Ross BR 03-92 is one of 999 pieces.
Bell & Ross recently added another watch to its BR 05 family – the Bell & Ross Br 05 Skeleton Green.
