Bell & Ross BR 01 Tourbillon watch
The Bell & Ross BR 01 Tourbillon watch represents a significant foray of this acclaimed sport's watch brand into the realm of haute horlogerie. This extraordinary timepiece combines the demanding professional-grade construction of the Bell & Ross BR 01 watch collection, with a number of striking complications, including the most prestigious one of all--the tourbillon. The heart of the Bell & Ross BR 01 Tourbillon timepiece is its complex manually wound movement.

Of course, the primary object of fascination is the stunning flying tourbillon device which is bold and unmistakable at the six o'clock position on the carbon fiber dial; affixed on one side only (hence the "flying" description), the tourbillon completes a single revolution each minute. Directly above the tourbillon, an indicator on the left shows the power reserve available in the mainspring, up to 120 hours. On the right, is a unique trust gauge, which informs the wearer when the tension remaining in the mainspring is insufficient to provide precise timekeeping performance.

As a final eye-catching treat, the Bell & Ross BR 01 Tourbillon watch displays regulator hours, in the primary subdial at the 12 o'clock position. Bell & Ross has spared no effort in creating a timepiece whose outer detailing is equal to the sophistication of the mechanism. The BR 01 Tourbillon watch's imposing 46mm case is crafted from titanium, whose ultra-tough DLC (Diamond Like Carbon) treatment gives it an amazing hardness of 4000 Vickers. Much like a race car, the case has been hollowed out on the sides for weight reduction, and fitted with strikingly elegant, lightweight carbon fiber panels. A sapphire caseback permits a view into the complex movement, whose bridges are also made from carbon fiber.

Despite the intricacy of the movement, this timepiece is a purebred creation for sport, and is water resistant to a depth of 100 meters. The Bell & Ross BR 01 Tourbillon watch will be produced in very small numbers, and is supplied in a fine presentation box crafted from lacquered wood and carbon fiber. Sharing the modular concept inherent to the entire BR 01 watch collection, this prestigious watch is supplied with both a rubber and a crocodile strap, which can be easily interchanged in moments. Alternatively, the watch may be mounted in a supplied titanium and carbon fiber desk stand, transforming it into a remarkable table clock.
