Bell & Ross has a new collection out this year at Basel, and while I initially didn’t think much of it, they have started to grow on me. In the past I’ve kind of filed Bell & Ross in the back of my mind as a one-trick pony, producing only one cool model: the cult-followed instrument watches, of which I own one. However, their other models just haven’t created the same passion for me.

The Falcon is much more understated, and has a ultra-curved sapphire crystal, almost like the hesalite crystals on the Omega Moon Watch. The dials are super simple, and have a Panerai-esque styling to them. They’ll be released in a regular Black edition and a limited edition in Brown, with a see-through caseback that is etched with “50 Years of Passion and Innovation”.
