Bell & Ross animates the Radar with three luminous aircraft hands
The BR-03 Green Radar Ceramic brings the sweep of a living screen to the wrist, where three moving aéronefs trace hours, minutes and seconds across a radiant green dial.

The dial glows emerald against a matte ceramic case, its face mapped with concentric circles and numerals that echo the architecture of an actual radar screen. Three aircraft silhouettes serve as hour, minute and second hands, each one tracing its own rhythm across the numbered grid, creating the visual effect of a functioning radar in motion. The green luminescence recalls the phosphorescence of vintage military instruments, lending the watch both precision and a certain nostalgic theatricality.
Bell & Ross has long drawn from the language of instruments designed for professional use, and the Radar collection exemplifies this philosophy with particular clarity. The BR-03 Green Radar Ceramic interprets this heritage through contemporary materials and technique. The ceramic case offers resistance to scratches and corrosion whilst maintaining the robust, squared proportions that define the BR-03 silhouette. A black rubber strap completes the composition, grounding the luminous dial in tactile practicality.
The watch sits comfortably between the decorative and the functional, offering those who wear it a glimpse of the instruments that guided navigators and military operations. Yet it remains fundamentally wearable, a conversation between horological craft and the poetry of operational necessity. The green dial breathes with life as the aircraft hands move across its face, each revolution a small performance of mechanical precision.
