In 2016, Renault F1® Team and Bell & Ross formed a partnership as French brands sharing the same values of high performance and technical expertise, releasing the R.S. collection. In 2020, the new "R.S. 20" collection welcomed the "BRV3-94 R.S.20," a new model with an impressive round case.

Since its founding in 1994, Bell & Ross has been passionate about aviation, growing into a recognized watch brand in the field of instrument watches. However, the brand continuously explores new worlds to discover, leading to its partnership with the Renault F1® Team in 2016. In 2020, driven by the shared pursuit of excellence, the "R.S.20" collection, themed around the "future of F1®," was unveiled.

The family is characterized by consistency and complementarity. Bell & Ross not only places the partner's logo on the dial but also applies cutting-edge technology and uses the most innovative materials found in racing. "The R.S. models emphasize our know-how and DNA, harmonizing with the design world of our partner, Renault F1® Team," states Bruno Belamich, Creative Director of Bell & Ross. This collection focuses on measuring short durations, i.e., chronographs that enable the measurement of racing cars.

This function, befitting a sports watch, directly reflects the F1® world and complements the equipment of pilots, meeting their demands. "It was clear that we needed to create a practical watch for the pilots of the Renault F1® Team. Chronographs have historically been deeply associated with motorsport," said Bruno Belamich.

One of the new "R.S.20" collection models, the "BRV3-94 R.S.20," is a round instrument watch of the "tool watch" type. Its large stainless steel case features a bidirectional rotating bezel with a 60-minute scale for measuring short durations. The dial displays 12 indices typical of sports watches, echoing the typography used by the Renault F1® Team.

The indices are cut into small black and white squares forming a grid, representing the checkered flag in car racing. Yellow hands indicate various chronograph functions. The watch is engraved with "Formule 1® Renault R.S.20" on the case back and is limited to 999 pieces worldwide.
