Bell & Ross has a love affair with aviation, but its latest savvy timepiece, the BR V2-93 GMT 24H, isn’t just for flyboys.
When we think Bell & Ross we typically think flight instrument panels. The brand’s fascination with all things aviation is at the core of its design style, and its newest release, the BR V2-93 GMT 24H takes that minimalist look and adds the ability to read the time in three different time zones…you know, just in case.

An indispensable feature for pilots, being able to keep track of time no matter where you find yourself is also ideal for today’s globetrotting gentleman and the new BR V2-93 GMT 24H, with its 41mm round steel vintage-styled case, screw-down crown and rounded lugs, places such information at a wearer’s fingertips.
With its bi-directional 24-hour scale bezel, the BR V2-93 GMT 24H displays the time in three global time zones, with the three white hands displaying the hour (minutes and seconds) in one time zone, and the orange hand rotating around the dial in 24 hours to show a second time zone (or local time in 24 hour format). The bi-directional bezel then allows for the reading of a third time zone.

The new piece’s black dial contrasts perfectly with its large white numerals in a colour scheme that’s ingrained in Bell & Ross’ DNA, echoing the colours used for on-board flight instruments. The hands also feature a photoluminescent coating, with the GMT hand standing out in orange, allowing for easy readability in low light conditions.
Powered by a calibre BR-CAL.303 automatic movement, the BR V2-93 GMT 24H is available with either a steel or “tropic” rubber strap.
Just in case you’re headed somewhere nice and warm.
