The Bell \u0026amp; Ross BR-X5 Meteorite sets a genuine meteorite dial within the marque's architectural BR-X5 case, uniting a highly technical instrument with a one-of-a-kind geological treasure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA Rare and Unique Material\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe dial is crafted from Muonionalusta meteorite, an iron meteorite discovered in 1906 in the Norrbotten region of northern Sweden. Estimated at approximately 4.5 billion years old — nearly as old as the solar system itself — the meteorite is believed to have fallen to Earth around one million years ago before being preserved for millennia beneath Scandinavian permafrost. Once cut and treated, it reveals the celebrated Widmanstätten pattern: a natural crystalline structure formed by an extraordinarily slow cooling process that cannot be artificially reproduced. Machined directly from solid meteorite without a brass base, and finished with a protective PVD coating, each dial is entirely unique. Across this 250-piece limited edition, no two dials are alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eArchitectural Case, Manufacture Movement\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 41mm satin-polished steel case remains true to the BR-X5 collection's design language: an open-worked, multilayer sandwich construction secured by four exposed screws, reducing visual and physical weight while creating a distinctive technical silhouette. At its heart is the Calibre BR-CAL.323, a manufacture movement produced exclusively for Bell \u0026amp; Ross and COSC-certified as a chronometer, offering approximately 70 hours of power reserve and backed by a five-year manufacturer's warranty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA Limited Edition for Collectors\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLimited to just 250 individually numbered pieces worldwide, the BR-X5 Meteorite fully embraces its status as a collector's watch, further enhanced by the exceptional rarity of its material. This reference, BRX5R-MTR-ST\/SST, is presented on a satin-finished and polished steel bracelet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMovement:\u003c\/strong\u003e Calibre BR-CAL.323.
