10 years ago, Bell & Ross presented the first re-launch of its original model, especially designed for aeronautics: the Pilot Chronograph. To commemorate this anniversary, Bell & Ross has produced a Special Edition limited to 500 pieces.
Manufactured with pioneering techniques, the Pilot 10th Anniversary model follows the fundamental design principles of the brand: readability, performance, precision and water-resistance.
The retro-style watchcase features ‘mushroom-like’ pushers and a black steel and anodized aluminium bi-directional bezel, designed for aircraft navigation.
Easily identified by the horizontally aligned sub-dials, the automatic mechanism is assembled and adjusted with high precision in the traditional Swiss watchmaking manner.
The technical characteristics of this limited edition are embodied in the ultra-curved shape of its anti-scratch sapphire crystal. The difficulty involved in the design and manufacture of this crystal, required over a year of study and trials conducted by the Bell & Ross technicians and engineers.
At the height of refinement, the Pilot 10th Anniversary comes in a luxurious wooden box finished in black-gloss and further decorated with the colours of this special edition.
