AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Brand: Bell & Ross
Model: Vintage BR 123 GMT 24H
Reference: BR 123-93-SP (Serial: 11552)
Winding: Automatic (BR-CAL.303 movement, derived from ETA 2893-2, visible through sapphire caseback)
Case material: Stainless steel, mixed polished and brushed finish. Fixed satin steel bezel graduated 24 hours.
Dial color: Matte black. Arabic numerals (9, 12, 3) and applied indices coated with Super-LumiNova. Skeletonized GMT hand with large orange arrow. Circular date window at 4:30.
Case diameter: 42 mm
Crystal: Ultra-convex sapphire crystal (glassbox type) with anti-reflective coating.
Strap material: Black rubber with crosshatch textured finish (Strap reference: BRV 22/18).
Clasp: Wide pin buckle with engraved "BR" logo.
Clasp material: Satin stainless steel.
Historical notes and curiosities: Bell & Ross has become famous worldwide for its square “instrument” watches (the iconic BR 01 and BR 03 lines) directly inspired by cockpit instrument panels. However, with the Vintage line (to which this BR 123 belongs), the Parisian house wanted to pay homage to aviator watches of the 1940s and 1950s, adopting a much more traditional and elegant round case. The most fascinating detail of this model is the sapphire glassbox: its extremely domed curvature (highly visible in the side image Image307) is designed to recreate exactly the look and reflections of the old acrylic (plexiglass) crystals of vintage watches, while offering the unrivaled scratch resistance of modern sapphire. The watch also features the useful GMT (Greenwich Mean Time) complication, essential for pilots and travelers to track a second time zone in a 24-hour format.

It comes with the original box and warranty.
Shipping: Tracked and insured with DHL or FedEx
Any customs duties are the responsibility of the buyer
