Bell & Ross revealed its latest timepiece, the BR-03 Astro, inspired by space exploration. The watch is designed to bring the cosmos to the wrist, featuring the Earth, Moon, and Mars in motion across its dial. Seconds are marked by a small satellite that completes an orbit around Earth every 60 seconds, while the Moon tracks minutes and Mars tracks hours.
Encased in a 41mm micro-blasted black ceramic case, the BR-03 Astro features a domed glass dial, creating a realistic representation of Earth. The Cupola, the observation dome of the International Space Station, inspires the design. This took incredible precision to develop, involving a decal process for clarity and accuracy.
The BR-CAL.327, a self-winding movement with a 54-hour power reserve, powers the BR-03 Astro. It is available via the brand’s website for $4,800 and is limited to 999 pieces.
