Bell & Ross BR-X2 Tourbillon Micro-Rotor Skeleton

Last year, Bell & Ross released the second generation of its "Experimental" collection: the BR X2 model, where the case and movement form a single element The concept behind the BR X2 is that the movement is worn directly on the wrist Bell & Ross designed and developed the square movement, the manufacture calibre BR-CAL381, which has the brand's iconic signature shape.

The case is virtually invisible, and the dial does the same to showcase the skeleton movement, allowing all elements of the mechanism to be admired For a skeleton movement, the challenge is always to remove as much extraneous material as possible whilst ensuring the model's mechanical constraints are respected For this particular model, Bruno Belamich, the brand's Creative Director, came up with the idea of: "Fusing the case and movement into a single component to make the case disappear, leaving just the movement visible" To highlight this, the designer opted for both simplicity and performance.

The watch also has understated dimensions and delicacy, made possible by the extra-thin movement, just 4.05 mm, with automatic winding provided by a micro-rotor. . Source
