In a striking union of technical prowess and motorsport spirit, Bell & Ross introduces the BR-X5 Racing. With inspiration drawn directly from the fast-paced world of competitive racing, this limited edition of 500 pieces showcases the Maison’s expertise in high-end watchmaking, where performance and elegance meet in flawless harmony.
A Motorsport-Inspired Design
The BR-X5 Racing’s design captures the dynamic visuals of racing car dashboards, appealing to both watch aficionados and racing enthusiasts alike. Its dial features a distinctive “checkerboard” second-hand graduation, echoing the precision timing essential to motorsport. Minutes are displayed on the inner bezel, enhancing readability, while the Super-LumiNova® X1 coating ensures clear visibility even in low-light conditions. Accentuated by a bold red-tipped seconds hand, the dial emphasizes both elegance and functionality.
Crafted with High-Tech Materials
True to the requirements of motorsport, Bell & Ross constructed the BR-X5 Racing with high-performance materials, achieving an ideal balance between lightness and durability. The watch’s multi-layered case, crafted from carbon and grade 2 titanium, provides robustness while maintaining lightweight wearability. The titanium screws and woven carbon bezel ensure durability, while the case’s layered architecture offers resistance and a modern aesthetic. A choice of a titanium or black rubber strap completes the ergonomic design, offering exceptional comfort.
Power and Precision with a Certified Chronometer Movement
Inside the BR-X5 Racing’s 41mm case lies the BR-CAL.323 caliber, a certified chronometer automatic movement by COSC, ensuring unparalleled precision. This movement offers a substantial 70-hour power reserve, visible through a specially tinted glass on the dial and a sapphire case-back. The power reserve indicator, designed to resemble a fuel gauge, reinforces the watch’s connection to motorsport, showing the remaining power from “Empty” (E) to “Full” (F), a feature as practical as it is stylish.
A Celebration of Motorsport and Watchmaking Artistry
The BR-X5 Racing stands as a testament to Bell & Ross’s commitment to performance-driven design. From its high-tech materials to the precise movement and motorsport-inspired aesthetic, every aspect reflects the brand’s dedication to functionality and beauty. Limited to 500 pieces, this timepiece is both a collector’s item and a nod to the adventurous spirit of motorsport.
For those who seek the thrill of speed fused with the precision of fine watchmaking, the Bell & Ross BR-X5 Racing delivers an experience that is as exhilarating as it is timeless.
