Time To Get Your Halloween Flex
You can forget about your “All Hallows Eve” Off-White Blazer. This is the proper party piece.
You may have seen a few Bell & Ross watches that forego the standard circular dial for an actual skull face one, but this one is a little bit special, in the sense that the mandible of the skull moves with each tick.
Starting all the way back in 2009, the skull watch has been one of Bell & Ross’s more eccentric choices. First editions include a completely blacked out dial with the skull motif also in varying shades of black. This has then evolved into what you see today, the BR-01 complete with a moving mandible, courtesy of an automaton movement. Details are everywhere, from the face that’s been microblasted to perfection, as well as swords for the minute and second hands, coated in Superluminova.
The skull face is not only just an aesthetic feature however. Pirates, as it’s been well documented have considered it a talisman that carries courage and frightens off enemies. The military also adopts the same motif, but to remind them of their own vulnerability in their line of work, and the BR-01 pays tribute them all.
Thinking of getting one? Only 500 units will be made, and each one will cost RM 43,400. The timepiece is already available for purchase at Pavilion KL, Gardens KL, Gurney Plaza Penang, and selected retail stores.
