Bell & Ross’ BR-03 Astro Watch Depicts a Journey Through Space
Bell & Ross has unveiled its latest timepiece, the BR-03 Astro. Designed to evoke the spirit of space exploration, the watch features the Earth, Moon, and Mars traveling across its dial, connecting the wearer to the wonders of the universe. A small satellite marks the seconds by completing a full orbit around the Earth in 60 seconds, while the Moon indicates the minutes and Mars follows its orbit to display the passing hours.Housed in a 41mm-wide, micro-blasted black ceramic case, the glass of the dial is carved into a spherical cap, allowing for a realistic representation of Earth in both volume and decal. The weight and positioning of the hands were carefully calculated, especially to support the engraved Moon, ensuring a harmonious and balanced design. This timepieceBR-03 Astro is inspired by the Cupola, the observation dome of the International Space Station (ISS), acting as a porthole opening onto the planets. This design required meticulous attention to detail, including a decal process beneath the glass to maintain precision and legibility. Beating as the watch’s heart, the BR-CAL.327 self-winding movement ensures a continuous running time of around 54 hours.Limited to 999 pieces, the BR-03 Astro is currently available via Bell & Ross’ official webstore with a price of $4,800 USD.
