BELL & ROSS 03-92 DIVER BLACK & GREEN BRONZE

From the start, bronze has been closely linked to such technical developments. A durable alloy made of copper and tin, bronze was discovered and used after the Stone Age and before the Iron Age, between the years 3000 and 1000 BCE. In watchmaking, other than a handful of attempts at military watches in the 1930s and 1940s, the materials only really appeared at the end of the 1970s. Over the past fifteen years, it’s clear that bronze has been enjoying a veritable golden age in watchmaking.

The reason behind its popularity is most likely one of aesthetics over technology. With a patina that develops over time as it oxidises, bronze gives watches extra soul, puts the wearer in touch with nature, and casts an allure that evokes the finest epics known to man.
