Since their inception Bell & Ross have always been inextricably tied to aviation, their watches frequently taking aeronautic themes — whether it be their Vintage WWI Chronographe Monopoussoir Watch, their WWII Bomber Regulatéur Chronograph or the “BR01 Airborne II” Skull & Crossbones Wristwatch. Now they’ve stepped up their game by actually basing the aesthetic and even movement […]
Celebrating 35 “Years of Thunder”, GTI35 presents a celebratory chronograph dubbed the Too Fast For You (or 2FAST4U for short).

After a decidedly more ostentatious design with their Horizon Wristwatch, Bell & Ross return to their subtle ways with the latest piece in their collection, the WWII Bomber Regulatéur.
