Bell & Ross INSTRUMENT BR 01-96 COMMANDO

Behind Bell & Ross,
A passion: for military watches
A project: create utilitarian watches suitable for professional use.
An inspiration: aeronautical instrumentation

With aeronautical instrumentation the absolute reference in terms of readability, reliability and performance, the Bell & Ross designers sought to reproduce as faithfully as possible a cockpit timepiece at the scale of a man’s wrist.

Thus was born the watch-instrument.

THE NEW INSTRUMENT BR 01 COMMANDO SERIES

Discreet readability
The new INSTRUMENT BR 01 COMMANDO is dedicated to the elite forces, those units operating in the shadows. Tailing, infiltration in hostile environments, a plethora of perilous situations requiring equipment that is both high-tech and impossible to detect. The BR 01 COMMANDO with its special colouring and finishes blends in perfectly with the outfits of these men for whom discretion is the ultimate weapon.

Its black case, grey dial and matt finishes make it the superlative camouflage watch. The crystal with a double anti-reflection coating and the photoluminescent dial make it readable by day or night.

The limited edition BR 01 COMMANDO is fitted with a choice of two mechanical movements, a power reserve or a large date.

The specific COMMANDO trim turns it into a radical version of the INSTRUMENT BR 01, just like those who have inspired it – men of action, courage and honour. A professional tool, an ally at all times.
