PRE-BASEL: The Bell & Ross BR03-92 Ceramic Military Type

The story in a second:

Bell & Ross has given their classic 42mm BR03 tool watch a military makeover. HUA!

The latest version of Bell & Ross’ BR03 demonstrates that even though the brand has been exploring other collections and shapes they know where their roots are – badass-looking, military-style, square watches.

The BR03-92 Ceramic Military Type certainly looks the business. Another ceramic addition to their fundamental case shape, this new BR03 is stealthy and lightweight with its black PVD-treated ceramic case and khaki dial, with the usual sterile B&R look accentuated with a red ‘MT’ symbol (a tribute to the dial markings sometimes found on actual military-issue pieces). The watch is topped off with a rugged khaki canvas strap (or rubber if you’re a more of a Navy SEALs type of guy).

And while it’s a little bit of a stretch to imagine this luxury watch in the field, it’s a perfect match for your ex-MOD Land Rover Defender and Buzz Rickson’s jacket.
