Bell & Ross BR 03 Type Aviation Multi-Function Watch Makes Official Debut In France

At Baselworld 2008, Bell & Ross revealed a new multi-function BR Instrument watch created especially with the French Air Force in mind.  At the behest of the Chief of Staff of the French Air Force, the Swiss luxury watch brand has introduced two limited editions of its BR 03 Type Aviation model, one in stainless steel, and the other in carbon blackened steel.  The edition will consist of 250 pieces for each model.

Bell & Ross presented the first example of the Instrument BR 03 Type Aviation watch to the French Air Force Chief of Staff during a special ceremony.  On hand for the occasion was Bell & Ross co-founder Bruno Belamich, Robert Passariello, Marketing and Communication Director for Bell & Ross, Carra Sutherland, Bell & Ross's Press Relations Director, and Arnaud Vidal, Sales Director for the brand.  

The Bell & Ross BR 03 Type Aviation is animated by a quartz movement, and offers among other functions a digital chronograph, timezones in analog and digital formats, and an alarm function.  The black dial is decorated with an insignia of the French Air Force.
