Journey to the stars

WITH its constellation of diamonds and faceted indices, the studded dial of the Bell & Ross BR S Diamond Eagle uses the watchmaker’s art to create its celestial display. The refined midnight blue dial features a sunray pattern, testament to the brand’s in-house expertise, characterised by tiny lines radiating outwards like sunbeams. The dial is then covered in a blue-tinted varnish, which gives it an exquisite depth.

The time display is easy to read indicated by two slim hands with a streamlined design. Any woman contemplating this delicate watch will be immediately transported to the skies, as if in a dream. The dial is an aeroplane porthole through which she can admire the stunning night sky.

The case comes from the BR family, created in 2005, upon which the brand’s reputation was built. It features, as it always has, the signature form of this icon – the circle within a square. Machined from steel, it is alternately polished and satinfinished to create a visual contrast between the bezel and the case, and is water-resistant to 100 metres. It houses a reliable and accurate Swiss made quartz movement at its heart.

The engraved case back echoes the Aquila constellation, this time in a stylised design. The midnight blue alligator strap with pearlescent hints adds to the harmonious palette of blues used for this model. Every aspect of the watch has been designed with care, even the tiniest detail.

The BR S Diamond Eagle is available in two versions, one of which boasts a bezel set with 66 white diamonds; a prestigious and elegant watch turned into a contemporary piece of jewellery. This ultra feminine collection exudes a cosmic, yet cosmopolitan appeal.
