What if your watch could look like an aircraft radar screen? Bell & Ross is bringing that idea to life with it’s latest BR-03 Green Radar Ceramic, a limited-edition timepiece that combines aviation-inspired design with modern watchmaking.
Limited to just 999 pieces worldwide, the new watch features a glowing green radar-style dial, complete with miniature aircraft that move to tell the time. It’s a fresh take on the brand’s well-known Radar collection, which first made its debut in 2010.
A Watch That Tells Time Through Moving Aircraft
Unlike traditional watches that use hour, minute and second hands, the BR-03 Green Radar Ceramic uses three rotating discs, each featuring a different aircraft.
The Falcon business jet represents the hours, the Rafale fighter jet shows the minutes, while the Neuron stealth drone indicates the seconds.
Each aircraft moves independently across the dial, completing one rotation every 12 hours, 60 minutes and 60 seconds, respectively. What makes the design even more interesting is its glowing green displays. The aircraft silhouettes leave luminous trails, creating the appearance of a real radar screen.
The watch also features a green-tinted sapphire crystal with an anti-reflective coating, while the hour markers and radar-style markings add depth to the display.
A New Look For The Radar Collection
Bell & Ross first introduced its radar-inspired watch in 2010 with the BR-01 Radar, followed by the Red Radar in 2011 and later versions in 2014 and 2021.
The 2021 model introduced ceramic to the collection, while the latest edition is the first to bring together moving aircraft silhouettes and glowing radar trails in one design.
It is also the first Radar model to feature the brand’s 41mm BR-03 case, giving the watch a more compact appearance. The case is made from microblasted black ceramic, a material known for its smooth finish and scratch resistance. The back of the watch is engraved with the three aircraft featured on its dial.
Built With Precision & Everyday Comfort
Beyond its striking appearance, the BR-03 Green Radar Ceramic is powered by the BR-CAL.327 automatic mechanical movement, offering a 54-hour power reserve.
The watch is also water-resistant up to 100 metres and measures 10.60mm thick. It comes with a black rubber strap and an additional durable black synthetic fabric strap, along with a steel pin buckle featuring a black PVD finish
The aircraft markings are finished with Dark Green Super-LumiNova, allowing them to glow green in low-light conditions. Founded in 1994 by Carlos-A. Rosillo and Bruno Belamich, Bell & Ross have built their identity around aviation-inspired watches. Its signature square case with a round dial was introduced with the BR-01 in 2005.
With the latest BR-03 Green Radar Ceramic, the brand continues its tradition of turning aircraft instruments into wearable timepieces. For watch collectors and aviation enthusiasts, the limited-edition release offers something different from the usual watch face with only 999 pieces available worldwide.
