This Bell & Ross AeroGT is based not on a watch but on a sports-car (which was designed by the Bell of Bell & Ross, co-founder Bruno Belamich). The idea was to design a car that could be the interpretation of the Bell & Ross spirit. The AeroGT Concept Car was the starting point for the creation of a new pair of watches inspired by the automotive world, the BR 03 AeroGT models. And now in the start of Summer 2017, both the car and the watch undergo a facelift, with a new color scheme. Sadly only 500 pieces of this watch will be used by lucky owners and only one AeroGT Concept Car will be built (not for sale yet).
