 A PRECIOUS JEWEL AND DESIGN PIECE

The new BR 05 Green Gold fits in perfectly with the rest of the Bell & Ross BR 05 family. A more urban model launched in 2019, it has been a great success for the brand.

The design is inspired by the iconic BR 03, which it revisits in a more refined style. With an integrated case and bracelet, the result is a clean, stylish design with an edgy aura. The elegant BR 05 is a watch designed for urban explorers. Which instead of the fighter pilot jumpsuit wear a refined jacket ideal for a cosmopolitan young man.

The new BR 05 Green Gold is the third link in the Gold family, its case and bracelet are made entirely in gold. The different models in this collection are characterized by a distinctive colour of the dial.

The green on the BR 05 Green Gold evokes victory. It’s the colour of trees – more precisely, that of the fir or spruce tree. On the new BR 05 Green Gold dial, the green shade takes on a luminous, sparkling tone.

The painted metal plate that serves as the base of the dial has a sunburst effect, changing colour when tilted. Depending on the reflections hitting its surface, it varies between an almost fluorescent shade all the way to dark bottle green. The depth of this unique colour is obtained thanks to the numerous coats of tinted green varnish.

THE LUXURIOUS GOLD COLLECTION

The BR 05 Gold collection is characterized by the use of the finest materials, each of the models is realised in 18-carat 5N gold. Giving the illusion to the wearer of a gold ingot for the wrist... A rather singular sensation.

The polished edges of the case bring out its contours. The sapphire crystal caseback reveals the beating heart of the automatic BR-CAL.321 mechanism, with an oscillating weight that’s also adorned in gold. This precious, radiant metal works perfectly with the luminous dressy green dial.

Finally, a third off-white shade enriches the dial with fine, discreet touches. To ensure better readability in the dark, the hands (except for the seconds-hands), numerals and indices, are covered in C3 superluminova, a luminescent material.

The integrated bracelet is designed entirely in satin-brushed gold. Only the small links have a polished finish. A second alligator-leather strap is available in a classic style that pairs well with this chic, elegant timepiece. This is the first time the BR 05 has featured a leather strap.
