The Bell & Ross BR-03 White Steel & Gold is noted for its dressier take on the brand's signature square design, featuring a slimmer 41mm case with an opaline white dial and rose gold accents. Reviewers praise its noticeably smaller footprint while retaining the brand's quirkiness, though some find the blue hands a miss. Owners with larger wrists appreciate the distinctive square look. The BR-CAL.302-1 automatic movement offers a 54-hour power reserve. On balance, owners and reviewers find the Bell & Ross BR-03 White Steel & Gold appealing for its unique design and dressier aesthetic within the brand's lineup.
The Bell & Ross BR-05 Skeleton Phantom Ceramic features black lume on its hands and indexes, which reviewers note is less bright than standard lume. The watch has a 41mm black ceramic case with brushed and polished surfaces and a grey-tinted sapphire dial that reveals the movement. It is powered by an automatic movement with a 54-hour power reserve. Overall, reviewers describe the Bell & Ross BR-05 Skeleton Phantom Ceramic as a stealthy and modern take on the BR-05 line, highlighting its monochromatic aesthetic and intricate dial.
