1 minute read
By using a new oxidation-resistant alloy, Argentium®, for the WW1 Argentium®, Bell & Ross is reviving a forgotten metal.
With the WW1 Argentium®, Bell & Ross preserves the magic of vintage timepieces and sublimates them with the most innovative watch-making techniques. Inimitable color, magnificent luster and unique depth: the WW1 Argentium® is suffused with all the nobility of silver.

 
The WW1 Argentium® continues the characteristics specific to the WW1 collection:
 
• The finish of the hands and index markers in appliqué metal give the model a timeless refinement.
• The domed glass gives the watch a vintage look. Unlike the original, it is made from sapphire, a hard-wearing material, using perfected techniques.
• Designed in the finest watch-making tradition, the manual winding movement offers a journey back to the very roots of watchmaking. The polished case and barleycorn guilloché caseback also enhance its allure.
• The horns are produced like wire handles and soldered to the case. The elegance of the straps harks back to the first wristwatches while being ergonomically perfect.

 

The WW1 Argentium® stand out from the other models in the WW1 45mm collection due to their smaller diameter (41mm) and the unique luster of their silver case and finish.
 
In 2013, a new version with an opaline dial joins the two existing versions, Ruthenium and Silver. The sunburst dial of this new version shimmers with opalescent reflections, blending subtly with the silver of the case to create a marvelous harmony. The hands, numerals and index markers present a tone-on-tone display of elegant sobriety. 
 
With their blue, orange red or white alligator leather straps, these masculine classics can be transformed into feminine icons.
