Bell & Ross’ Bellytanker radiates unique confidence and style through a design inspired by aviation and automotive. This chronograph version of the Bellytanker owes its body to the past, but its heart belongs to the modern-day. Exhibiting the Maison’s flair in watchmaking, this timepiece – Ref. BRV294-BT-ST/SST – is equally pragmatic in function as it is charming and singular in looks.

The comprehensive steel construction reverberates the sturdiness and strength of the belly tankers from whom the watch derives inspiration. The versatile link bracelet and satin-polished 41mm case look prominent and smart on the wrist. The tachymeter-detailed bezel mimics the dial in terms of legibility. Both the dial and the bezel, though packed with details, offer easy readability. We like how the subdials are highlighted against a black setting while the applied numerals and indexes look subtle on the copper-hued dial. The discreet placement of the date aperture and the Super LumiNova-filled hour and minute hands add to the thoughtful appearance of the dial.

At Second Movement, the pre-owned division of Ethos Watches, we adhere to a rigorous verification process where expert watchmakers carefully inspect every watch to certify its authenticity, ensuring it is not counterfeit. We also go to the maximum extent possible to ensure that the timepiece is not a stolen property and that all duties are paid. However, in the absence of any central database, a 100% verification is unlikely for any pre-owned entity in India. Nevertheless, we can still provide a provenance guarantee for watches purchased from Ethos.
