When it comes to watches, everyone has their own opinion of style and what suits them best. There are thousands of designs available, supplied by a large number of manufacturer’s. Most of the cheaper models are not built to last, nor are they made from quality materials. For those who want something that is unique, is very precise, made from the best material around, and will last decades, then they need to look no further, feast your eyes to the collection of Bell & Ross as featured in Haute Time.

This luxury watch brand is run by the famous French and Swiss designer Bruno Belamich. The company is relatively new to the luxury watch market, having been launched in 1992. Since then, the business has gone from strength to strength, and now they have a large range of designs on sale. Many of the models are based on cockpit instruments, which is part of one of their hallmark brands, the BR Aviation collection. They also offer vintage and marine collection. All of the watches are built to a very high standard.

It is the resemblance to cockpit components which makes the BR collection unique in the world of designer watches. Some of the companies’ designs are based on what the military used in the first and second World Wars. Looking at the collections it is no surprise why many people fall in love with them. Each watch is made by hand, and they are all very precise when it comes to timekeeping. This is important, especially for those people using them for aviation.

For those people who enjoying diving, whether in the cold waters around Canada, or the clear blue tropical waters of the Seychelles, the marine collection is the ultimate watch. Unlike many of its rivals that are only waterproof to around 200 meters, Bell & Ross watches can go down as far as 1,000 meters (3,280 feet). This depth is more than what most divers will ever reach, making the watch practical for all diving situations. They are also designed to be read at depth.

All Bell & Ross watches are waterproof to 100 meters, regardless of which collection it comes from, which makes them great for normal daily use. The straps are either made from hard wearing rubber or leather, both of which will last a long time. Although the range is now extensive, some people like to purchase watches which are as unique as they can be, and Bell & Ross cater for these by occasionally bringing out limited editions. These obviously cost more, but will hold their long term value well.

Designer watches such as these are not for everyone, but they do fill a unique niche. Bell & Ross now sell their watches to military organizations around the world, and this proves how well built they are. As these watches are all made by individual professionals, the company only produces around 2,000 a day. Not only is owning one a status symbol, but it is also a watch for every occasion.
