Bell & Ross is inviting watch enthusiasts to explore the frozen beauty of the Arctic with their latest creation, the BR-05 Skeleton Arctic Blue. Inspired by the mesmerizing landscapes of polar regions, this timepiece is an ode to the captivating interplay of water and ice, echoing the glacial blues and frosted patterns of frozen expanses.
The dial, a standout feature, is crafted from blue-tinted glass engraved with intricate, irregular lines reminiscent of cracked ice. Enhanced with white decal detailing, the design evokes the illusion of flying over a frozen lake or the abstract beauty of fractured ice. This effect is achieved through a blend of laser engraving and pad printing techniques, creating a layered, frosted trompe-l’oeil that’s as striking as it is innovative.
Housed in a meticulously finished 40mm steel case with alternating polished and satin surfaces, the Bell & Ross BR-05 blends form and function. Its skeletonized BR-CAL.322-1 automatic movement is revealed beneath the crystalline dial, offering a mesmerizing view of its inner mechanics as if submerged in icy water. The watch delivers refined versatility with a rubber strap ($7,700) or a stainless steel bracelet ($8,200).
Limited to 250 pieces, the BR-05 Skeleton Arctic Blue is a true collector’s item. Available exclusively through Bell & Ross boutiques and online, it’s a masterpiece that brings the frozen magic of the Arctic to life on your wrist.
