Bell & Ross BR-05 GMT Green Steel
Introduced in 2019, the BR-05 is a derivative of the BR-03, Bell & Ross’ iconic timepiece. It retains the collection’s signature shape — the famous circle within a square, inspired by an aircraft cockpit instrument — while leaving the tarmac behind to embrace a distinctly urban universe. The bracelet seamlessly integrates with the case, creating a harmonious whole and shaping an immediately recognizable silhouette. Thanks to its integrated design, robust comfort, and refined finishes, the BR-05 has established itself as the perfect companion for an active, urban lifestyle.
Since its launch, the collection has continued to evolve, expanding its functions and formats: 42 mm chronographs, 41 mm GMT models, and special 40 mm editions. In 2026, color takes center stage. The year celebrates green dials, with the BR-05 GMT Green Steel standing as the centerpiece of this trend, alongside the BR-03 Green Steel and BR-03 GMT Lum.
The sage green dial
The green chosen for this BR-05 GMT is not a primary green. It is a sage green with silver-toned reflections — elegant, contemporary, and deep. To achieve this distinctive shade with its sunray finish, Bell & Ross developed a three-step manufacturing process: sunray brushing of a metal plate, application of a tinted green varnish, followed by a transparent glossy varnish layer that enhances the color’s protection and depth. The result is a dynamic dial whose reflections shift depending on the angle and the lighting conditions.
Urban style ready for travel
The BR-05 is the watch of the city dweller; equipped with a GMT function, it becomes the watch of the globetrotter. The BR-05 GMT Green Steel simultaneously displays two time zones, thanks to an additional arrow-shaped hand that can be independently adjusted from the hour hand. The two-tone peripheral flange, in green and silver grey, is graduated over 24 hours, allowing day and night hours in the second time zone to be identified at a glance. Pure functionality, instant readability: the Bell & Ross DNA applied to travel. With its 41 mm case, the BR-05 GMT occupies a strategic position within the collection, between the 40 mm BR-05 Auto and the 42 mm Chronograph. A balanced intermediate size, designed to fit both the wrist and an international schedule.
