Bell & Ross
Instruments BR05A-BLU-ST/SST

No, the bracelet is integrated into the case structure — there's no conventional attachment point for a standard strap. I've seen many who wanted to change it: the only way is a bespoke strap built in the workshop, adapted directly to the square geometry of the case.

We work only at <a href="/pages/casati-booking">Casati Milano</a>, by appointment. When you come to Via XX Settembre 15, I hold the watch in my hands and take measurements directly from the case — so the strap fits perfectly, without forcing.

Tuscan leather in navy blue or Barenia. Tuscan leather is robust, it feels natural on the wrist and develops a patina that tells the story of time together — true to the instrument spirit of this watch. Barenia is more refined if you wear it in the evening too, but both breathe with the character of the case.

Years — it depends how you treat it. Good Tuscan leather withstands 8-10 years of daily use, if you keep it dry when it rains and clean it now and then with a cloth. Leather ages beautifully: it doesn't wear out, it becomes noble. Every scratch, every crease tells the story of your hands.

The square geometry and case fitting are not standard — every millimetre matters to maintain the technical balance that Bell & Ross designed. I can't let a generic strap betray that precision. In the workshop I study the piece and build it so the solution is invisible, as if it were born alongside the watch.
