Bell & Ross BR-05 Chrono S.T. Dupont: A Refined Limited Edition For Collectors
Bell & Ross has partnered with renowned French luxury maison S.T. Dupont to introduce the new BR-05 Chrono S.T. Dupont, a limited-edition chronograph that combines the distinctive aesthetics of the BR-05 collection with design elements inspired by the world of fine cigars and luxury accessories.
Limited to just 150 pieces worldwide, the watch brings together the expertise of two French brands known for their attention to craftsmanship and refined design.
A Distinctive Two-Tone Case
The BR-05 Chrono S.T. Dupont is housed in the familiar BR-05 case, characterized by its rounded-square architecture and integrated sports watch styling. Measuring 42 mm in diameter and 14.25 mm thick, the case combines satin-brushed and polished surfaces to enhance its sporty yet elegant appearance.

For this special edition, Bell & Ross has opted for a luxurious combination of stainless steel and 18K rose gold, creating a striking two-tone aesthetic that complements the warm tones found throughout the watch.
Brown Sunray Dial Inspired by Fine Craftsmanship
The dial is undoubtedly one of the defining features of this limited edition. Finished in a rich sunray brown tone, it reflects the visual codes associated with the collaboration while delivering a sophisticated and contemporary look.

Applied numerals and hour markers, along with the central hands, feature a rose gold-colored finish that harmonizes with the case construction. Beige Super-LumiNova coating on the hands and markers provides enhanced legibility in low-light conditions while adding a subtle vintage-inspired touch.
The chronograph display retains the familiar BR-05 layout, featuring a 30-minute counter positioned at 3 o’clock and a small seconds subdial at 9 o’clock. A discreet date aperture is placed between 4 and 5 o’clock.
Automatic Chronograph Movement
Powering the BR-05 Chrono S.T. Dupont is the BR-CAL.326 automatic chronograph movement. Based on the proven Sellita SW510 architecture, itself derived from the legendary Valjoux 7750 design, the movement operates at a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour (4Hz).

The calibre delivers a power reserve of approximately 60 hours and can be viewed through the sapphire crystal caseback, allowing owners to appreciate the movement’s mechanical operation.
Bracelet and Strap Options
Bell & Ross offers the watch with two wearing options. Buyers can choose between a stainless steel and rose gold integrated bracelet that reinforces the watch’s sporty-luxury character, or a brown leather strap featuring a black patina effect and embossed alligator-style texture for a more classic appearance.

Exclusive Presentation Set
Further emphasizing the collaboration, each BR-05 Chrono S.T. Dupont is delivered in a specially designed Macassar ebony presentation box. Developed in partnership with S.T. Dupont, the set includes a matching Ligne 2 lighter and a coordinating cigar cutter, both finished in steel and gold tones that mirror the watch’s design.

The presentation box also functions as a humidor capable of storing up to 50 cigars, making it a unique collector’s package for enthusiasts of both watchmaking and luxury accessories.
Availability and Price
The Bell & Ross BR-05 Chrono S.T. Dupont is limited to 150 pieces worldwide. Pricing is set at € 19,200 on the two-tone bracelet and € 14,900 on the leather strap.
