The Basics
A skeleton tourbillon mono-pusher chronograph, this new generation BR-X1, with column wheel movement, displays hours and minutes in the centre for a traditional display, as well as a 100 hour (4 days) power reserve indicator at 9 o’clock. A watch of extreme sophistication, the BR-X1 Chronograph Tourbillon also has a 30-minute counter at 10 o’clock and a 60 second counter at 2 o’clock for the chronograph functions. The function is engaged by the mono-pusher rocker – positioned at 2 o’clock – which controls the Start, top and Reset functions. To the delight of lovers of rare and highly efficient watches, Bell & Ross has achieved the seemingly impossible: a perfect blend of the sophisticated precision of a grand horological complication with the technical expertise of a professional instrument. The synthesis of Bell & Ross’ skill in professional timepieces and fine horological complications, the BR-X1 Chronograph Tourbillon stands out as an exceptional instrument with a pioneering design. Ultra-masculine in its looks, revolutionary in its design, sophisticated by nature, the BR-X1 blends sporty design with technical features and high end finishes.
