Rising from a common passion to design function products with a clear identity, and a strong taste for timeless inspired military style, the two brands have linked up for limited edition watches.
For this special occasion, Bell & Ross, the ultimate reference in professional aviation watches, has imagined and designed a capsule collection. It comes as no surprise that Bell & Ross choses its iconic square shape case, the BR03-92 for the collaboration.
The two minimalist 42 mm watches – with their black matte ceramic cases – are just like analogue aviation counters; the shape of the hands and the typography of the numerals ensure maximum readability.
The same applies to the dials’ design which is inspired by military techniques of marking for maximum legibility. Formed by two overlapping inserts, the upper section is cut away around the numerals and indices, revealing the photoluminescent coating covering the lower insert.
THE BR03-92 25TH ANNIVERSARY
The 25th anniversary version will feature BAPE’s logo – an Ape’s head – printed on its black dial at 6 o’clock and ultra-phosphorescent green numbers. Its modern design and functional dial fulfills the mission of displaying time with the utmost efficiency thanks to the Superluminova® C3 treatment.
Limited to only 25 pieces, the BR03-92 25th Anniversary comes in a water-resistant PELICAN® box, and is available with two straps: a black rubber version with BAPE’s iconic character - engraved and hand-filled with lacquer – and a leather one, sporting BAPE’s trademark grey camouflage.
THE BR03-92 GREEN CAMO
The second limited edition model of 100 is launched simultaneously. This model combines Bell & Ross’ signature design lines with the original green pattern BAPE® CAMO on its dial. The military tones offer an optimum contrast with its white numbers and Ape’s logo. The result is an ultra-stylish fusion of functionalism design and streetwear style.
These models are available on BAPE’s retail network and on selective Bell & Ross’ boutiques.
