Bell & Ross celebrate the launch of Baselworld today with an updated version of the BR-X1 timepiece. The Chronograph Tourbillion Sapphire timepiece is constructed from five blocks of sapphire, and is followed by getting chiseled into a series of translucent watches. The sapphire is used specifically to assist in eluding a skeletonized component, resulting in a fully transparent watch casing with a view of the interior.
Bell & Ross introduce a total of three exclusive pieces -- either black, pink gold, or blue. Carlos Rosillo, the CEO of the label, expresses its successful collaboration with Mr Porter and is proud to show that traditional watchmaking processes can also show that luxury and digital elements can perfectly co-exist. Two of the three watches are exclusively available online at Bell & Ross for the price of $499, and the remaining blue colorway will be available on Mr Porter.
