Bell & Ross pays homage to the history of military timepieces by presenting a pocket watch – the PW1 and its wrist watch version – the Vintage WW1. The brand’s designs have always been influenced by the reinterpretation of military watch design history.

The reimagining of those bygone days has resulted in the creation of two types of watch, representing two eras: a fob watch of rare dignity, the PW1 which stands for Pocket Watch 1 and the introduction of a wristwatch christened the Vintage WW1 for Wrist Watch 1. First worn by French soldiers during World War 1, these wristwatches were then tested by pilots in the 1920s before being declared technically reliable in the 1930s.

The Vintage WW1 pays tribute to this era and takes its inspiration from the stylistic designs of the “Roaring Twenties”. A true missing “time” link between the pocket watch and the wristwatch of the 1940s, the shapes and functions of the Vintage WW1 reflect Bell & Ross’s DNA.
