Quick TakeThis Bell & Ross BR-X1 is a total rebel, flaunting its mechanical soul for the world to see. The sapphire case is like a window into another dimension, where gears and springs dance in perfect harmony. This is haute horlogerie with an attitude, a watch that doesn't play by the rules. It's a symphony of technology and transparency, a timepiece that demands attention and rewards curiosity. Forget hiding its inner workings – this watch is proud to show them off. With its skeletonized dial and flying tourbillon, it's a mesmerizing spectacle on the wrist. This is more than just a watch; it's a conversation starter, a work of art that tells time.

DescriptionThe Bell & Ross BR-X1 Tourbillon Skeleton Sapphire is a testament to haute horlogerie, wherein engineering prowess and aesthetic artistry converge. The timepiece showcases a 45mm case meticulously crafted from sapphire, a material renowned for its robustness and clarity. This transparent casing provides an unobstructed panorama of the intricate mechanics within, reminiscent of an X-ray revealing the skeletal structure of the watch. The BR-CAL.288 caliber, a hand-wound skeletonized tourbillon movement, beats at the heart of this masterpiece. Operating at a frequency of 21,600 vibrations per hour, the movement boasts 20 jewels and an impressive 100-hour power reserve.

The dial, or rather the absence of a traditional dial, further accentuates the skeletonized design. Super-LumiNova® filled indices and similarly luminous skeletonized hour and minute hands ensure legibility in low-light conditions. A sapphire crystal with an anti-reflective coating protects the intricate mechanism while offering an unimpeded view. The watch is fitted with a translucent rubber strap, complementing the overall transparency of the design, and secured with a satin-polished steel pin buckle. With a water resistance rating not specified, this timepiece prioritizes intricate artistry and mechanical complexity over aquatic capability. This limited edition of 8 pieces exemplifies the brand's commitment to exclusivity and innovation in the realm of high-end watchmaking.
