The short answer

The closest alternative to the Bell & Ross BR-X1 RS 16 is the TAG Heuer Monaco Split Seconds Chronograph — square case and Looks nearly identical. If price is the constraint, the TAG Heuer Monaco Chronograph at $8,500 (vs $23,760 for the BR-X1 RS 16) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Andersmann Watch Co CHRONOGRAPH ANN0631 is the standout microbrand take — racing chrono and Cushion case. Stepping up, the Hublot Square Bang Tourbillon 4 Day Power Reserve 3d Carbon 42mm ($115,000) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
