Bell & Ross Type Demineur TYPE DEMINEUR 420s

This time, we are pleased to introduce the Bell & Ross Type Demineur. Although Bell & Ross was founded in 1992 and is still a relatively young brand, it is a rare example of a brand that has grown into one of great renown in recent years. This Type Demineur is a model from the late 1990s. As the name TYPE DEMINEUR indicates, it refers in French to a member of a mine-clearance unit. This professional watch was made for French security agencies and features antimagnetic construction, a highly water-resistant screw-down crown, an antireflective sapphire crystal, and a unidirectional rotating bezel for measuring elapsed time. Its case construction also prevents the generation of magnetic fields, making it a model worthy of its name. Bell & Ross is now known for its square designs, but the designs and character of watches from this period differ from current models, giving them a distinctive vintage appeal. It is a rare model, with few examples in circulation and even fewer appearing in such good condition.
