Each Bell &
Ross chronograph is designed by men with a passion for perfection in
the manufacture of fine quality watches and chronographs able to
withstand the rigors of extreme careers. Bell & Ross watches are
intended for astronauts, pilots, divers, bomb-squad experts,
explorers and others who require that their timepiece stand up to
high altitudes, arctic temperatures and high acceleration. Airplane
instrument panel design principles have been employed in the design
of the face,
Swiss chronograph movements are at the cutting edge of
mechanical precision and every Bell & Ross chronograph is
optimally water-resistant. Each Bell & Ross requires the
painstaking assembly of up to 350 individual parts to produce such
accurate and mechanically perfect instruments.
The Vintage
Collection evokes the origins of the mechanical watch for
professionals and is inspired by military watches. The Classic
Collection was directly inspired by pilots' watches and features
water resistance to 200 meters (650 feet). The Diver 300 model is
actually water-resistant to a depth of 300 meters (975 feet) and
features an innovative TE or water-resistance indicator which turns
blue when the watch's water resistance should be checked.
