Bell & Ross Twelve O’Clock Watches Say to Hell with 23 Hours, 59 Minutes and 58 Seconds of the Day
 |
Sometimes a watch looks so cool that it doesn’t matter if it doesn’t really serve its originally intended purpose. I’d have to say this is one of those times. The guys at high-end French watchmaker Bell & Ross have created a watch that barely tells time, but looks amazing doing… |
