The “regular” BR-01 and BR-X1 chronographs up-to-date are not my preferred Bell & Ross watches. This new version though looks visually appealing to me. Have a look at this boutique-only-edition…
The Bell & Ross BR-01 chronographs and all its derivates are the brands second pillar besides all the aviation and vintage-like watches. These chronographs are more a kind of ultimate utility watches …

Do you agree? Is the watch visually appealing also for you?
yes good design
Rather nice but I prefer the BR 03-92 in blue ceramic.
Pricewise, it’s a bit over the top but if they can sell them for such a mark-up, more power to them.
Im a massive fan of the B7R range including the 01s – the more traditional instrument type rather than the recent turn coordinator etc….. the BRx1 is an interesting offering and their first in the 01 size for some time. However, at $20,000+ i believe it to be overpriced in this market segment. No doubt at all that the red limited edition is the most attractive variant.
Really nice. I like this one alot.
