Bell & Ross BR 01 Skull Bronze[/caption]
Bell & Ross introduced the first 'Skull' version of its BR 01 back in 2009. For the BaselWorld 2015 fair however Bell & Ross re-imagined this now-iconic watch, added a healthy dose of Steampunk and gave us the BR 01 Skull Bronze.
As with the earlier skull watches, the dial and glass frame a skull painted on the dial - in this case done in photoluminescent black paint. The crossbones are drawn from the signature screws on the bezel. The caseback is made of titanium; the strap is subjected to a specific tanning technique, creating a worn and patina'd effect.
And you know what? Although highly polarizing and perhaps controversial, the Skull Bronze has proved to be one of the most popular releases of this year - right up there with the Speedmaster Silver Snoopy. Although it is now sold out and can no longer be ordered, we didn't want to withhold this set of wristshots we took of this watch.
