Bell & Ross has a knack for being on the right side of the zeitgeist, having most recently predicted the unstoppable return of precious metal cases with its BR 05 Green Gold model last year . The brand is masterful in having just what the market is hankering for, and of course serving its needs when it has a measure of unexpected success, which is what the BR 05 Chrono Grey Steel and Gold is. The story began with the BR 05 Chrono Edicion Limitada with Havana dial in 2022. Long story short, that watch sold out in such impressive style that Bell & Ross was properly motivated to follow-up with a wide release .
