Bell & Ross BR 03-92 DIVER BRONZE

The BR 03-92 Diver Bronze introduced CuSn8 bronze to Bell & Ross's square diving platform. The 42mm case, built from an alloy of 92% copper and 8% tin, acquires a distinctive oxidised patina through exposure to air and moisture.

Inside, the BR-CAL.302 automatic movement delivers reliable timekeeping. The black dial features gold-plated Super-LumiNova indices. Water-resistant to 300 metres, the timepiece carries a solid bronze unidirectional bezel and rubber-sheathed screw-down crown.

The warm metallic tones evolve with each wearing, rendering every example singular. Pair with an olive field jacket and raw selvedge denim to complement the bronze's natural patina.
