Introducing The New Bell & Ross BR-X3 Tourbillon Micro Rotor

Since its foundation, Bell & Ross has built its identity around aviation inspired instruments, focusing on legibility, functionality, and precision. Known for its square cases and cockpit aesthetics, the brand has gradually expanded into more technical territories through experimental collections. The BR-X3 collection was released a short while ago and represents this evolution, as it introduces more complex movements and architectural design while preserving the brand’s distinctive visual language.

In its latest release, the brand unveils the BR-X3 Tourbillon Micro Rotor, which marks a significant step for the collection, placing mechanical artistry at the centre of the design and elevating the model.

The case follows Bell & Ross’s signature square format and is crafted from satin brushed and polished stainless steel. It measures 40 mm in diameter and 9 mm in thickness. A sapphire crystal is used for both the front and the caseback, secured with the brand’s four iconic corner screws. The sapphire exhibition caseback reveals the fully openworked movement. Water resistance is rated at 50 meters.

The watch features a skeletonised construction with a smoky grey sapphire disc positioned off centre at 2 o’clock to display the hours and minutes. The hands are rhodium plated and designed for maximum contrast and legibility. The entire movement is arranged beneath a grid of horizontal and vertical bridges, inspired by geometric art. A one minute flying tourbillon is positioned at 5:30, and 26 visible rubies are spread across the movement.

The watch is powered by the manufacture calibre BR-CAL.389. It is an automatic movement equipped with a micro rotor and offers a power reserve of 58 hours. It comes fitted with a grey alligator leather strap, paired with a steel folding buckle. This model is limited to 25 pieces and priced at CHF 80,000, which is approximately AED 362,900.
