Like the rest of the V1 watches in the Vintage Collection, the Bell & Ross V1-92 features a very straightforward, brushed stainless steel case in a traditional round shape like those seen on many vintage military watches. A 38.5mm case width keeps things feeling vintage and the modest size should allow for comfortable wear on wrists of many sizes. Ironically, many of the watches the Bell & Ross V1-92 seems to draw inspiration from were giant (as large as 55mm) having been designed to be worn over a pilot’s thick jacket. Bell & Ross clearly understand that the modern market has a place for those who appreciate vintage styling with a more wearable presence. The new Bell & Ross V1-92 Military also shares its movement with the rest of the V1 series.

Bell & Ross’ Cal. 302 is based on the Sellita SW300, a 25-jewel, 38-hour power reserve, automatic mechanical, time-and-date caliber which hums along at a standard 28,800bph. Sellita’s SW300, while not as similar as the SW200 and ETA 2824, exists as an alternative to the ETA 2892. While it isn’t a ground-breaking piece of haute horology, the Sellita based Cal. 302 should provide years of faithful and accurate service and make for easy servicing when the time comes.

A new dial for the existing V1 series, the Bell & Ross V1-92 adds yet another popular pilot’s configuration to the expanding lineup and is the only 38.5mm model with faux vintage colored Super-LumiNova, if that’s what you’re into. The Bell & Ross V1-92 Military is also not outrageously priced at $1,990 USD on a very much aviation-inspired vintage looking brown leather strap. bellross.com

The strap is calfskin leather and what stands out is that there are no adjustment holes in the strap for the folding clasp. The clasp utilizes a “pinch” feature that locks the strap in place. This allows for infinite adjustability so you can really dial in the sizing for your wrist. This is a feature I had never seen on a watch until now and it works very well. Another element of the Maurice Lacroix Pontos Replica Watch  that works particularly well is the crown. It is slightly over-sized and has a radial grain pattern that enables a strong grip when in use. I have seen too many watches with a crown that was poorly designed and difficult to use. This made winding or even setting the watch annoying. So this was a welcome and refreshing aspect of the watch.

You can choose from two high-gloss, lacquered dials, black or white. When I say high-gloss, I mean it. The Maurice Lacroix Replica Watch dial looks smooth as glass. Both dial options have contrasting white or black chrono counters that have a matte circular grain pattern. You will also find a quick change date at 6 o’clock integrated into the hours counter. The hands are laser-cut and rhodium plated with bold blue-green lume at the tip. You also have matching hour markers with a green lume on the outside of the dial.

Inside the Bell & Ross BR 03-92 Black Camo is the BR-CAL.302 automatic movement, a variant of the Sellita SW300-1 with 38 hours of power reserve. Other features include a sapphire crystal with AR coating, 100 meters of water resistance, and a stealthy, well-integrated black rubber strap that flows with the rest of the look. For an even more “tactical” look, Bell & Ross includes a synthetic fabric strap, which appears to be secured with a hook-and-loop material (i.e., Velcro), which we’ve seen from the brand before.

I’ve actually been a fan of the Bell & Ross BR 03 series watches for quite some time. They’ve become archetypal for Bell & Ross, and as I mentioned, I’m happy that the brand is still experimenting with the range. While this specific version wouldn’t be my first pick (I still love the Bell & Ross BR 03-93 GMT) I think the Bell & Ross BR 03-92 Black Camo will be popular in certain circles, though it might be more destined to see action in the club than on the battlefield. The Bell & Ross BR 03-92 Black Camo will retail for a price of $3,800. bellross.com 

I will be the first to admit, the wider Bell & Ross catalog can be a bit difficult to tell apart, as there are minor variations across a basic design.  That said, it does also speak to the strength (and popularity) of the design that it can be iterated in this fashion, with minor changes (such as a sandwich dial) mixed in to freshen things up.

It’s, in my opinion, a fantastic achievement in balancing various design elements and topics as well as boldness and wearability. “Balance” is a word which I kept returning to if considering various aspects of the Bell & Ross BR 03-92 Diver. The result is a solid, elegant dive watch having a look and character quite unlike any other that I know of, and it is just plain interesting to wear.No matter how good, gratifying, or first a brand’s watches are, a genuinely “iconic” model is something most watch brands won’t ever be able to convincingly claim — from its very nature the term can be correctly applicable to only a restricted number of watches. I attempt to avoid even using the word, but I believe many watch enthusiasts will agree that Bell & Ross’ square-cased, aviation-themed watches dependent on the dashboard instruments of old airplanes will qualify. The plan is closely correlated with and suspended in air, but Bell & Ross has branched out to plenty of different genres or styles with the square case as the foundation. While the Bell & Ross BR 03-92 Diver could get lost among so many other variations on the theme, taken alone it’s effective as a persuasive dive watch.

Then again, I’ve long been a fan of this particularly iconic design, and have a thing for sandwich dials as well, so it was really a winning formula for me.  I’m sure if you, dear readers, disagree with me, you won’t be shy to speak out in the comments below, and I welcome that.  For now, I think the dial on the Bell & Ross Desert Type is my favorite to-date from the brand.  No, the color palette may not be the most visually exciting, but it fits the theme and should make for a fairly flexible (if casual) watch. Bell & Ross haven’t released pricing information yet, but we will let you know as soon as they do.  bellross.com

We’ve demonstrated to you fake tag heuer mikrotimer Zenith’s Striking Tenth (1/tenth of a second), FP Journe’s Centigraphe (1/100th of a second…kind of) and TAG’s own Mikrograph (1/100th of a second), yet none of those approach TAG Heuer replica‘s Mikrotimer Flying 1000 Concept watch, a piece initially uncovered at Basel live on HODINKEE.

While the Mikrotimer is still being developed, we just can’t resist the urge to cheer TAG Heuer replica for truly pushing the breaking points of watchmaking with their top of the line R&D office.
