A luxury watch company founded by French designer Bruno Belamich and Swiss businessman Carlos A Rosillo, Bell & Ross has been creating watches with an aeronautical flair since 1992. Joining forces with military control panel specialists, the team of experienced watch designers at Bell & Ross concentrates on developing high-end timepieces that are ideal for professional use. These timepieces are built to withstand the extreme temperature, gravitational, and pressure fluctuations that are common to occupations such as fighter pilot, deep-sea diver, bomb disposal expert, and astronaut.
The epitome of the Bell & Ross vision, the BR V2-94 Garde-Cotes rests in a case of 41-millimeter satin-polished steel that provides water and pressure resistance for depths of up to 100 meters. Attractive as well as functional, this exceptional timepiece features a matt grey dial with numerals and indices coated in white Superluminova, a strontium aluminate-based afterglow pigment that allows for accurate “first glance” readings in even the most difficult and hazardous environments. The BR V2-94 Garde-Cotes skeletonised metal hands are also filled with Superluminova, and its ultra-curved sapphire crystal face covering features a state-of-the-art anti-reflective coating.
You don’t need to be a military hero or extreme adventurer to wear the Bell & Ross BR V2-94 Garde-Cotes, but its nice to know that its professional grade features can withstand virtually any conditions.
