Introducing – The Updated Bell & Ross BR 03-93 GMT

Being a brand specialized in aeronautical instruments and pilot’s watches, Bell & Ross somehow needs to have GMT models in its collection, being probably the most useful complication for aircraft pilots… and frequent travellers.

Introducing – The Bell & Ross BR 03-92 Diver Red Bronze
