Basel News: Introducing The Bell & Ross Red Radar (Live Pics + Video)

March 25, 2011

Remember the Bell & Ross Compass?? It looked like this.??Just today, we had the chance to see the entire Bell & Ross collection for 2011 and there are some really great looking pieces.? One thing that hasn't changed from B&R is their ability to create an extraordinarily interesting piece from a very basic movement, in most cases the ETA 2892.Just like the Compass and previous Radar, the new Basel 2011 introduction, dubbed the "Red Radar," uses a disc system mounted to a traditional ETA movement to create a completely unique look.? This particular model resmebles a red radar screen (cue the "Hunt of Red October" bleeping sound) via red tinted crystal and clever fading on the time indication discs.Price will be around $5500 and this Red Radar will be a limited edition of 999 pieces.
