The Bell & Ross BR-X5 timepiece has been debuted as a new take on the brand's BR-05 model to provide wearers with an even more precise instrument for their collection.
The watch eliminates the Sellita-based mechanical movement within in favor of the Kenissi-manufactured BR-CAL 323 movement, which is COSC-certified and will offer 71-hours of power reserve. The octagonal timepiece boasts an integrated bracelet, while the dial replaces the Arabic numerals with batons for a sleeker appearance.
The Bell & Ross BR-X5 timepiece comes in three color options to choose from including black steel, orange carbon fiber and ice blue, which are priced starting at $6,900 and go up to $11,800. The watch features a see-through case in the back to allow for the wearer to admire the internal workings.
