The Haute Minute

Inspired by the SR-71 aircraft, also called the "Blackbird", the BR 126 Blackbird is a contemporary timepiece modeled after a vintage design.

The BR 126 Blackbird is part of Bell & Ross’s Vintage collection and features a 43 mm stainless steel case with black PVD finish.  Housing a flyback chronograph movement, the case is the perfect combination of a classic style with a modern edge. The black dial features easy to read hour and minute hands and numerals, covered with luminescent coating.  A tachymeter scale along with an AM/PM indicator at 9 o’clock on the dial, a small seconds subdial at 3 o’clock and date display at 5 o’clock complete the look, feel and functionality of this new model.

Fitted with an orange canvas strap and a black rubber strap, The BR 126 Blackbird Flyback is part of a Limited collection of 500 pieces which will be available later this year by Bell & Ross.
