BR V2-92 Steel Heritage

HERITAGE: a transversal concept

The heritage between today’s Bell & Ross watches and their glorious predecessors is strong. So, when Bell & Ross decided to launch a watch collection in 2009 highlighting the key eras in aviation history, what name could be more apt than Heritage? The distinctive feature of the BR Heritage collection is that it unifies its models, of varied forms and functions, around a common concept. Square, round, three-hand or chronograph, they all share the characteristic of expressing the passage of time through colors and a patina that give them a vintage look.

The versions feature the iconic black dial with its traditional sand coloured 12, 3, 6 and 9 numerals, as if aged by the patina of time. They evoke the past, and at the same time, they belong to the modern era thanks to the latest watchmaking technologies and materials that combine high performance with a retro spirit. The details include a polished/satin-finished steel case with a slightly smaller diameter of 41mm; push-buttons and a screw-down crown to reinforce the water-resistance of the case; rounded lugs that match the new metal bracelet with fine links to ensure it sits comfortably on any wrist; and the sapphire crystal with an ultra-curved finish to evoke the style of vintage watches.

Inspired by instrument panels from 1960s aircrafts, the BR V2-92 and BR V2-94 Steel Heritage measure time with precision whilst cultivating a resolutely retro look. A Vintage spirit with the Heritage concept at its heart.
