The Bell & Ross WW1-92 Heritage, introduced in 2015, stands out within the WW1 collection for its distinct aviator style, departing from the traditional pocket watch-inspired design seen in other models of the series. Encased in a 45mm wide steel case, with the Heritage variant featuring a PVD gray coating for a vintage aesthetic, these timepieces evoke the early era of aviation, reminiscent of instruments found on the first airplane dashboards. Despite their size, the watches are crafted with short, curved-down lugs, ensuring a comfortable fit on most wrists. The domed sapphire crystal adds a touch of elegance, while the dial design features a unique "double dial" layout, with a separate track for the hour markers within the minute scale dial. Powered by Swiss ETA 2892 automatic movements and lacking a date complication to maintain aesthetic purity, the WW1-92 models exude a sense of classic aviation heritage with Bell & Ross's signature polish and grace. Whether opting for the rugged appeal of the Heritage model with its dark gray case and tan strap or the more understated elegance of the Military variant with its polished steel case, these watches offer a distinctive and stylish choice for aviation enthusiasts and watch aficionados alike.
