It is very suitable to start with the BR 05 series because the case has enough space to accommodate decorative details.”

Jiachen Year of the Dragon: Turning the tables
According to the lunar calendar, February 10, 2024, is the first day of the Lunar New Year in the Year of the Dragon. In traditional Chinese culture, dragons are not only auspicious animals, but legends also say that dragons ensure good weather and good harvests worldwide. When Bell & Ross designed the BR 05 Artline Dragon, it used elements that symbolize nature, such as the sun, moon, swallows, animals, and plants, to express the dragon’s profound cultural and spiritual connotation.
