New & Reviewed: Bell & Ross BR-03 Compass :
The Bell & Ross BR-03 Compass is a new model designed to indicate three timezones and features a compass function. Retailing at CHF 4,500 and limited to 500 pieces, this watch maintains the recognizable 42mm rounded square stainless steel case characteristic of Bell & Ross. It features a bi-colour bezel with clear hour markings, a complex dial design that includes a compass, and a luminous hand configuration for easy readability in varying lighting conditions. The aesthetics combine a deep black dial with white, red, and blue accents, harmonizing beautifully with the polished stainless steel case. Powered by the reliable BR-Cal.303 movement, which is based on the ETA 2893, the Compass offers a power reserve of approximately 40 hours. Unlike its GMT counterpart, it omits the date wheel but retains the functionality of an independently adjustable GMT hand. The watch's design allows for easy compass reading by aligning the watch with the sun, demonstrating both practicality and sophistication, making it an excellent choice for those who appreciate functionality combined with style in a tool watch.
