The Bell and Ross Limited Edition lines of chronographs are specially crafted timepieces designed to commemorate special occasions. One of the most recent offerings was the Aéronavale, created to salute the fighting forces of the French Republic's Naval Air Service, with a limited production run to match the exclusivity of that elite fraternity. Only ten series of a hundred and fifty pieces each were ever made, at an average cost of three thousand Euros or about five thousand dollars American. Naturally, this opened the doors for many replica watches to be made.
The stainless steel case on the Bell and Ross Limited Edition measures forty-one millimeters by fourteen and a half millimeters, with either a sapphire or an acrylic crystal and fastened by your choice of stainless steel bracelet or genuine leather strap. The movement automatic, with twenty-eight jewels and a power reserve of forty-two hours. At once fitting and ironic for a watch designed to evoke the naval aviator, water resistance is measured at two hundred meters.
Many other Bell and Ross wristwatches are also offered in limited editions, such as their extremely popular BR Instrument collection. A small Swiss manufacturer of recent vintage when compared against more established labels with over a century in business, theirs are still some of the most sought-after products in contemporary timekeeping, particularly with the tactical personnel targeted by the company for a customer base. Indeed, Bell & Ross had their first success when NATO and French security forces adopted their watches.
The company also makes watches for women, such as its Mystery Diamond model with a floating diamond that serves as the hour-hand, rounding out the watchface every twenty-four hours. Bell and Ross Limited Edition label currently offers four collections, each meant to evoke a different set of feelings. Founded in 1992 by childhood friends, the company employs a mix of jewelry designers and aerospace engineers to produce luxurious timepieces governed by four essential principles: readability, performance, precision, and water resistance. Now meticulously manufactured by themselves in a state-of-the-art production facility located at the famous watchmaking town of La Chaux-de-Fonds, one of their proudest achievements is the Hydromax colleciont of waterproof wristwatches rated for underwater work at eleven thousand meters deep, or almost seven whole miles - a world record certified by the people behind the Guinness Book of Records.
Their popularity has meant that a wide variety of Bell and Ross replica watches exist for sale, especially the BR-01 model. Though sometimes full of tell-tale signs such as engraved screws on the caseback or substituting Japanese quartz movements for Swiss automatic movements, the most faithful replicas sell well because even at three hundred dollars apiece they are vastly more affordable than the five thousand dollars needed to purchase an original. The latest replicas even come in gift boxes just like those of the originals!
