Partnering the International Motor Show, Bell & Ross is launching a commemorative model to mark the 30th anniversary of the event of the year for auto design professionals and fans. Available in a limited edition of 30 pieces, this watch will be on sale at the show.


Originally designed to meet the requirements of extreme professionals and soldiers in the field, Bell & Ross watches have become a reference in watchmaking, combining Swiss savoir-faire, creative design and cutting-edge technology. Readability, functionality, precision and reliability are the four fundamentals that make Bell & Ross watches authentic professional instruments.

A watchmaking brand of the highest quality, Bell & Ross has also been working in parallel with the auto world for many years thanks to inventive sporting partnerships and the creation of exclusive dashboard clocks for concept cars. With their shared passion for innovation and fine mechanics, it was only natural that Bell & Ross should team up with the International Motor Show in 2008. This partnership has continued to flourish ever since.

An annual event for auto design professionals and fans, over the last 30 years the International Motor Show has become the event of the year for the biggest names in the auto and design world. Ever since its inaugural event in Chamonix in 1986, under the leadership of its President, Rémi Depoix, the International Motor Show has steered a clearly defined track: to highlight the artistic dimension of the automobile in order to make this one-of-a-kind show the “fashion week for auto design”.





From Chamonix to the Place Vendôme, from The Ritz to the Grand Palais, the International Motor Show has chosen sites promoting the values of luxury and prestige. It is now, at the heart of the Hôtel National des Invalides – a jewel in French history – that the event comes into its own and continues to carve out its identity.

In 2015, Bell & Ross is proud to extend its partnership at such a symbolic military site, where a large part of France’s military history was written. To celebrate this 30th anniversary, Bell & Ross is launching an unique model of the BR 03, its iconic watch with its immediately recognisable square silhou-ette. Employing the design principles of a dashboard clock, this watch-instru-ment immediately affirms its utilitarian vocation. Its PVD-coated steel case, the dial and rubber strap are jet black. For its part, the bright red second hand adds a subtle sporty touch.

At 6 o’clock, the dial of this 30th anniversary edition features the silhouette of a car – now the emblem of the International Motor Show. Available in a limited edition of only 30 pieces, the “30th anniversary” BR 03 will be launched at the inauguration event held on the evening of 27th January 2015. It will be on sale throughout the event, during which Bell & Ross will also be presenting its latest watch creations.

DuBois – DBF001-10 Flyback Chronograph Limited Edition












DuBois et fils DBF001-10 Flyback Big Date Chronograph Limited Edition NEW

Luxury watchmaker DuBois et fils revives memories of the golden age of auto racing

Le Locle, 09 January 2015 
'The exclusive flyback chronograph DBF001-10, with a limited edition of 33 timepieces, impresses with its striking colour combination, which is a reference to the legendary Gulf racing teams and the golden age of auto racing of the 60s/70s', says Thomas Steinemann, CEO of DuBois et fils.



















With the timepiece, the Swiss heritage brand has again succeeded in skilfully combining tradition and innovation and stirring great emotions. The DBF001-10 represents the speed and power of racing and brings back memories of the historic days of auto racing. Black, blue and orange, the undisputed colour trend within watch design over the past years, were harmoniously coordinated in the timepiece. The attractive colour combination makes the DBF001-10 a timeless classic and lends it that certain something that constitutes a very special jewellery piece.

























The DBF001-10 is waterproof up to 5 ATM and houses an automatic basic calibre 2892-DD44500 from the Swiss factory ETA SA. Supplemented with the Dubois-Dépraz module calibre 44500, the piece has a twin-disc large date and a chronograph mechanism with flyback function and stop times of up to 12 hours.

The movement has 49 jewels and a power reserve of 44 hours. The surface of the round, multi-piece case (41.5 mm) is comprised of matt brushed stainless steel 316L, which creates a nice contrast to the highly polished notched bezel. Beneath the scratch-proof, double-sided anti-reflective-coated sapphire glass is a black/blue and orange dial with guilloche hour circle. The tri-compax layout contains a small seconds counter as well as a 12-hour and 30-minute chronograph function at 3, 6 and 9 o'clock. The shiny frame of the large date display below the noontime, the hand-applied Arabic numerals and the rhodium-plated hour and minute hand are additional noteworthy details of the stylish timepiece.

The dark blue, handcrafted calf leather strap with protective inlays made from rubber and orange stitching elegantly rounds off the striking design.
