Earth, the Moon, Mars, and a spacecraft\u2026 Sounds like Christopher Nolan is cooking up another mind-bending film, but it is actually the new Bell & Ross<\/a> BR-03 Space Mission. Following the BR-03 Astro from 2025<\/a>, this new edition has a dial that takes the concept of space-time rather literally. The watch has no conventional hands. Instead, a transparent rotating disc carries images of Earth and the Moon, with the Moon marking the hours. There is also a spacecraft that travels around the dial to indicate the minutes.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The spacecraft on the Bell & Ross BR-03 Space Mission is inspired by the Vortex, a reusable spacecraft concept developed by Dassault Aviation. It appears to be taking off, with Earth and the Moon in the background against a black aventurine plate dotted with tiny stars. A small red dot also marks Mars. Together, these elements make the dial feel like a miniature space scene, with much to look at beyond the usual hands and indexes.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Despite the unusual display, reading the time is fairly straightforward. The Earth and Moon are printed on a transparent rotating disc that moves like an hour hand, with the Moon indicating the hours. Then there is the Vortex-inspired spacecraft that shows you the minutes with its nose as it moves around the dial. So, while the display looks quite different from a conventional watch, it works much like a two-hand watch. The scene changes as the disc and spacecraft move, giving you a slightly different view each time you check the time.<\/p>\n

The 41mm case is made of micro-blasted black ceramic and measures 10.6mm thick. Inside the BR-03 Space Mission is the automatic BR-CAL.325 movement (Sellita SW330 base). This is the same robust movement that also powers the BR-05 GMT models<\/a>. It runs at 28,800 vibrations\/hour and delivers a 54-hour power reserve. Bell & Ross is completing the model with a black rubber strap as well as an ultra-resilient black synthetic fabric strap, both secured with a steel pin buckle finished in matte black PVD.<\/p>\n

The BR-03 Space Mission is limited to 999 pieces and priced at EUR 4,990. For more information, please visit bellross.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n
