Louis Erard Collaborates with GoS on the Latest Edition of Le Régulateur

In December 2021, Louis Erard and GoS Watches were brought together by Manuel Emch, the visionary behind Louis Erard's strategic revival and creative transformation. He found a kindred spirit in Patrik Sjögren, watchmaker and founder of the Swedish atelier GoS, renowned for its mastery of Damascus steel. 

Together, they envisioned a timepiece that would seamlessly blend the essence of both Maisons: the technical precision and aesthetic refinement of the Swiss Jura, married to the artistry of a Swedish forge, where Damascus steel is meticulously crafted into mesmerizing patterns through an almost alchemical process.

Introducing Bell & Ross Introduced The BR-X5 Green Lum

A New Addition to the LUM collection with a fully luminescent case

In 2022, Bell & Ross introduced the BR-X5, which garnered attention for its distinctive and bold design. Now, at Dubai Watch Week 2023, the brand unveils the "BR-X5 Green Lume". This new iteration replaces the stainless steel case with a titanium case, coated with LM3D material developed exclusively for the brand. This unique material causes the entire case to glow in a vibrant green luminescence.

The BR-X5 Green Lume is encased in a 41mm x 12.80mm case crafted from Grade 2 microblasted titanium with a black DLC coating. However, what truly sets it apart is the use of LM3D material, a proprietary development for Bell & Ross. The case is further enhanced by upper and lower inserts made from green luminescent fiberglass composite transforming the entire case into a luminous spectacle, radiating a brilliant green glow. The case is surrounded by a fixed bezel in Grade 2 microblasted titanium, with a luminescent composite insert, adding to the watch's distinctive appearance. The sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating ensures clear visibility of the dial, with s screw-down crown and guards maintain the watch's bold design. Flip it over, and you'll find a caseback in DLC-coated titanium, revealing a smoked sapphire crystal. 

 

The matte black dial features applied hour markers and openworked hands, coated with Super-LumiNova, ensuring readability even in the darkest of settings. The luminous track around the date window at 3 o’clock, and the power reserve indicator at 9 o’clock adds a touch of functionality to the timepiece, while the black flange features a 60-minute scale with green markings.

 

 

 

Powering the BR-X5 Green Lume is the BR‐CAL.323, an automatic movement that is chronometer certified by COSC. It operates at a frequency of 28,800 vph (4Hz) and offers 70 hours of power reserve. The watch is paired with a Black openworked rubber strap with a DLC-coated steel folding clasp. 

 

 

The Bell & Ross BR-X5 Green Lume is available as a limited edition of only 500 pieces, with a price of CHF 13,000, equivalent to AED 54,000.
