Bell & Ross Limited Edition BR03-94 Tornado Watch Review
Tuesday - 15 October 2013
Bell & Ross has paid tribute to the 30th anniversary of the Tornado combat aircraft and the Aeronautica Militare with a special edition commemorative watch.
The MRCA 75, known as the Tornado, was jointly developed during the 1970s by the UK, Germany and Italy. The aircraft went into active service in 1982 and is capable of supersonic acceleration - it can reach Mach 2.34 (2,417 km/h) and has a range of 1,400 km.
"As an integral part of the Comando della Squadra Aerea, these multipurpose combat aircrafts are based in Ghedi and Piacenza and carry out recognition, defence and attack missions for the 6th and 50 squadrons," the brand explains. "Emboldened by the values of this exceptional aircraft, Bell & Ross is honoured to spotlight this aeronautic model."
The Bell & Ross BR03-94 Tornado is a limited edition of just 50 pieces. With a focus on readability, the watch has a matte black dial, an anti-glare sapphire crystal and photoluminescent hands. It has a 42 mm case and features a logo specifically designed for the anniversary of the Tornado on the dial. The timepiece is powered by a high-precision Swiss mechanical movement with a two-counter chronograph, and comes with a black rubber or canvas strap.
