The new BR 03-92 DIVER TARA OCEAN watch is the manifestation of the partnership between Bell & Ross and the Tara Océan Foundation. Bell & Ross has designed a professional quality diver’s watch to meet the needs of the crew on board the oceanography exploration schooner Tara, who carries out the organisation's scientific mission even in extreme conditions. All aboard!
THE TARA OCEAN FONDATION
The Tara Ocean Foundation – first public interest foundation in France dedicated to the Ocean –has two main missions : exploring the Ocean to better understand it and sharing scientific knowledge about the Ocean to raise public awareness. For 20 years, the Foundation has been supporting innovative Ocean science , in partnership with world-leading research centers to study marine biodiversity, as well as observing and anticipating the impacts of climate change and pollution.
AN INSTRUMENT WATCH THAT BRINGS TEAMS TOGETHER
Bell & Ross has always designed watches that are built for action. In joining forces with the Tara Océan Foundation , the watchmaker is taking concrete action and boards the schooner Tara. The Diver watch has been adopted by all crew members because of its legibility and efficiency. Regularly confronted with perilous conditions, the crew has to push the limits of the extreme. To cope with the magnitude of their tasks, these experienced scientists and sailors need to be able to count on precise, reliable tools under all circumstances. The challenge resonates with the Bell & Ross team: the BR 03 DIVER was designed for this very purpose.
A PROFESSIONAL DIVER'S WATCH
For a perfect symbiosis with the Tara Océan Foundation, Bell & Ross chose to design an instrument watch worthy of the missions undertaken by the scientists on board the schooner Tara. The heart of the Tara Océan Foundation’s mission is very close to that of a Bell & Ross watch. There’s the same requirement for precision. The new BR 03-92 DIVER TARA watch matches these specifications. There is no room for the superfluous, and functionality is prioritized. Part of the BR 03 DIVER professional diver’s watch collection, this limited edition of 999 pieces is waterproof to a depth of 300 metres . The model features a 42mm matte blue ceramic case and is equipped with a unidirectional rotating ceramic bezel in blue and orange, graduated to 60 minutes as required by professional divers. This efficient timepiece is powered by the BR-CAL 302 self-winding mechanical movement, displaying the hours, minutes, seconds, and date.
