The Genesis of Bell & Ross Diving Watches
Bell & Ross first made waves in the diving watch industry in 1997 with the Hydromax, which set a world record for water resistance, enduring depths of up to 11,100 meters. This remarkable achievement was made possible by a groundbreaking innovation: a case filled with a patented, transparent, fluorinated oil. A decade later, the BR 02 series debuted, featuring a barrel-shaped case and essential diving components like a helium decompression valve and an ultra-resistant curved sapphire crystal.
In 2017, the BR 03-92 Diver was introduced, translating the brand’s aviation expertise into a rugged, square diving watch, challenging the convention that diving watches must be round. This model has since become a cornerstone of Bell & Ross’s diving range. In 2018, the BR 03 Diver saw the addition of a bronze case, a nod to maritime tradition and prized for its robustness and unique patina.
Bell & Ross’s expertise in creating high-performance instruments is deeply rooted in the demanding environments of aviation and diving. The brand’s dedication to quality and innovation is evident in each new model, designed to meet the rigorous demands of professionals. Carlos Rosillo, President and co-founder of Bell & Ross, emphasizes the brand’s commitment to equipping explorers and elite units with reliable, stylish, and high-performance timepieces.
The new BR 03 DIVER collection continues this legacy, offering divers an unparalleled underwater experience with improved performance and legibility.
