Horage Autark TourbillonvsBell & Ross BR-03 White Steel & Gold

The Horage Autark Tourbillon is noted for its technical achievement as an accessible Swiss-made micro-rotor tourbillon, featuring an in-house calibre with a ceramic ball bearing design and silicon components. It offers a 72-hour power reserve and 100m water resistance within a lightweight Grade 5 titanium 39.5mm case. Reviewers mention that some cosmetic aspects, like the power reserve indicator and dial color, were still being finalized on prototypes. Overall, reviewers highlight the Horage Autark Tourbillon as an audacious and accessible technical accomplishment for its price point.

The Bell & Ross BR-03 White Steel & Gold is noted for its dressier interpretation of the brand's square design, featuring a 41mm or 42mm steel case with an 18k rose gold bezel and crown, and an opaline white dial with rose gold accents. Reviewers highlight its slimmer profile, with case thickness reported at 9.65mm and 41mm or 42mm diameter, making it wearable while retaining the signature chunky quirkiness. The BR-CAL.302-1 automatic movement offers a power reserve of 54 to 56 hours. Some find the blue hands on the dial to be a miss, and at its price point, some wish for COSC certification. Overall, reviewers praise the Bell & Ross BR-03 White Steel & Gold for its striking good looks and improved wearability due to its reduced dimensions.
