BR 01 CYBER SKULL SAPPHIRE No Limits to Excellence by bell & Ross

Sometimes the Bell & Ross brand can enjoy moving away from the usual themes such as aviation and the military. In 2009, Bell & Ross, this iconic watch creator, became one of the first to create a skull watch. Since then, the BR 01 Skull family has grown to include ten members that collectors are looking for a lot.
In 2020, avant-garde Cyber ​​Skull is rethinking this iconic series with a unique innovation. The design of this faceted watch represents a leap into the future. This was a resounding success.
The latest version of the Cyber ​​Skull Sapphire watch is a semi-transparent version of the sapphire crystal. This high-tech material takes the iconic watchmaking icon and pushes it into a distinct realm of transparency and richness.

multiple editions
In 2009, Bell & Ross was one of the first watchmakers to create the skull watch. The BR01 Skull design incorporates a skull and crossbones into the iconic 'Circle within a Square' case. It was an outright success.
Then the Bell & Ross brand launched other versions.
In 2016, the Burning Skull version of the larger skull surrounded by flames was introduced, and it all showed a XNUMXD aspect.
In 2018, the Laughing Skull watch incorporated a mechanical movement. The jaw moves when the crown is turned so that the skull appears to be laughing. It's terrifying!
2020 saw a big break! The new Cyber ​​Skull watch was opened and presented in the form of a stunning black ceramic case with cut-out corners and a “pixelated” skull. Launched into a world of ultra-modern, this pioneering design will continue to enjoy great success.
In 2021, the case of the Cyber ​​Skull Sapphire Only Watch 21 was embellished with sapphire crystal. This unique orange skull model was sold at Only Watch charity auction. The hammer finally fell, closing the auction at €220, twice its estimated maximum value. It is a real success!
The latest edition of the Cyber ​​Skull Sapphire watch is the version that is designed for the “general public”. A watch that reproduces the distinctive sapphire crystal case. The Faceted Skull, however, is fully transparent in this edition, a limited edition of 10 pieces, and is already considered a definite value to collectors.

Many inspirations
The new Cyber ​​Skull Sapphire watch design intersects with other skull watches in an innovative new classic style. The sharp edges of the case play with the light, as the multi-faceted faces multiply perspectives and reflections.
This offers several sources of inspiration:
Entrepreneur: In honoring the ultra-modern world of informatics and virtual technology. Pixels in faceted design are the pinnacle of digital art.
Origami: The multiple angles in this design are reminiscent of the ancient Japanese art of paper folding, which was adopted and carried into the future.
Military: The watch case is shaped like the body of an American F117 bomber. This multi-faceted design allows the aircraft to hide from radar screens. However, all eyes are on the Cyber ​​Skull Sapphire watch.

Transparent sapphire crystal (sapphire)
The BR 01 Cyber ​​Skull Sapphire is the watchmaking UFO. The base is a Cyber ​​Skull, which has been completely developed from colorless sapphire crystal. The title of Transparency in every sense of the word, including the semi-transparent rubber band.
The skull and crossbones are docked and secured between two sapphire crystals, so they appear to be floating in the air.
In the foreground, the sapphire crystal is a precious block of ultra-hard glass. A difficult material to work with and shape. The slightest mistake means starting over.

the movement
The BR 01 Cyber ​​Skull Sapphire watch combines excellence in design and watchmaking. This sophisticated watch features a mechanical watch movement BR-CAL.209. A skeleton, hand-wound caliber specially developed for this watch, appears almost invisible and takes the shape of a skull. The shape of the skeleton reveals some interesting technical parts, including transmission gears, balance and more.
The plate and bridges follow the outline of the skull before extending below the crossbones. The balance spring is positioned at the "twelve o'clock" to symbolize the brain in this skull and its movement reminds that it is still alive.
