The worlds of supercars and horology often meet at critical junctures for fairly obvious reasons – superlative engineering and mechanical obsessions. Thus, it is little wonder that a Limited Edition model like the new Bell & Ross BR 03-94 AeroGT Orange would find inspiration in a supercar rather than a some throwback to heritage horology. That said, what is truly surprising is the fact that the BR 03-94 AeroGT Orange is based on an internally designed supercar rather than a sports-car conceptualised by a bonafide car manufacturer.

The two unusually sized exhaust pipes evoke turbojet engine exhausts, while the turbine-style rims imitate the vanes of supersonic aircraft engines. But the most impressive detail is the rear longitudinal aileron, which is reminiscent of an aircraft’s vertical stabilizer. The role of this element is to stabilize the racing car when performing quick turns.

If watch and car collaborations are commonplace, the Bell & Ross BR 03-94 AeroGT Orange runs on the opposing end of the spectrum, how often does a watchmaker design a car the way the co-founder of Bell & Ross has? Bruno Belamich, the Bell of said company had an idea to encapsulate the Bell & Ross spirit in a concept car and the summation of the brand’s values and vision birthed the AeroGT Concept Car.

Limited Edition Bell & Ross BR 03-94 AeroGT Orange

The Bell & Ross AeroGT draws its inspiration from grand tourers. The Italian term gran turismo itself is evocative of the most illustrious sports cars in automotive history with names like Ferrari 250 GTO. The Bell & Ross AeroGT celebrates the idea of the “gentlemen driver” and naturally, his choice of wristwear. Keeping in mind the brand’s aeronautical muse (cockpit instruments), the AeroGT is a super car inspired by aviation: Extremely low (1.10 m) and aerodynamic, the 4.7 meter-long car seems is designed to split the air like an arrow. Nicknamed named by some as an aeroplane-car, Its pointed forms with sharp angles and cutting overhangs are reminiscent of some stealth F117a Nighthawk.

In addition to the modular chronograph, the iconic Bell & Ross round-in-a-square case returns for the 500 piece Bell & Ross BR03-94 AeroGT Orange.

All it needs to take off is a pair of wings. When seen from above, the drop-shaped glass roof recalls the glass cover of a jet cockpit. Meanwhile the razorthin wing mirrors are inspired by the small wings called «canards» placed on the nose of a fighter.
