The new BR 01-instrument
FROM THE PLANE’S COCKPIT CLOCK TO THE BR01 INSTRUMENT
Because Bell & Ross watches perfectly meet the expectations of men who are living on the edge, Bell & Ross has become a benchmark brand name in the field of high quality watchmaking and in the exclusive universe of professional users.
Today astronauts, pilots, divers or even bomb-disposal experts use Bell & Ross watches as a tool for carrying out their missions.
The search for a watch that adapts perfectly to professional use
In their search for the ideal professional watch and armed with their experience in the aeronautic and military fields, in-house engineers, master-watchmakers, designers and professional users pooled together their knowledge to create a unique, revolutionary concept: the BR01 instrument.
To start with, a simple idea: to turn a plane's cockpit clock into a wristwatch
Aeronautic instrumentation being the absolute reference as far as readability, reliability and performance is concerned, our designers attempted to reproduce a plane’s clock as accurately as possible in proportion to the wrist.
A multi-purpose instrument
With the BR01 instrument, the idea of a “watch-instrument” has become reality and a new concept is born.
The BR01 instrument is not only a wristwatch perfectly adapted to professional use but also a unique concept of modularity. By using avant-garde techniques and with their characteristic practical nature, our engineers and watchmakers have designed a watch plus several accessories that can be assembled differently depending on one's needs.
Several watches in one
The construction of the BR01's case with its removable clip fastening system allows the wristwatch to be easily and quickly transformed into an office watch, pendant watch or a watch to fix onto an instrument panel.
4 screws as symbols of functionality and authenticity
On top of the case, the 4 attachment screws evoke the BR01 instrument's aeronautic beginnings.
This type of 4 screw attachment, a feature of the BR01 instrument, is identical to the clamping system used for instrument panel gauges in plane cockpits.
An avant-garde technology for a revolutionary concept
In the image of aeronautic instrumentation from which the BR01 watch was directly inspired, it is perfectly adapted to professional use.
With all Bell & Ross's expertise in the field of precision mechanics concentrated on the BR01 instrument, it is the perfect realisation of the company philosophy and motto: function creates form.
The BR01 instrument collection
The BR01 collection is made up of 4 designs depending on the mechanism's functionality:
BR01-92 A watch with genuine military specifications.
BR01-94 Chronograph accuracy for professional use.
BR01-96 The readability of a big watch equipped with a large date display.
BR01-97 The reliability of a military-inspired watch equipped with a power reserve indicator.

ABT's iJet Nano
As a substantial evolution of the popular iJet RF remote control for 3G, 4G, and mini iPods, ABT's iJet for iPod nano steps beyond its predecessor's features, combining an FM transmitter, remote control, and protective iPod enclosure into a single package. ABT says that it's worked overtime to ensure that the new iJet offers superior FM transmitter quality to all of its leading competitors, and now includes an on-iPod tuning screen similar to the ones found in recent Griffin and Belkin offerings. It also has a patented Dock Connector pass-through port that permits charging and/or synchronization without removing your nano from the enclosure.
ABT's LaserPark
The 21st Century Garage Parking Assistant™
BEAM YOUR LOGO directly on your customers dashboard while helping them park safely!
Laserpark replaces the rope and tennis ball method of parking a car in the garage with a state of the art laser device. What makes the Promotional Laserpark extremely powerful is ABT's patented ability to shape the laser beam into your logo!
When the garage door is activated Laserpark senses the vibration and turns on the laser beam. As you drive in the garage you will see this beam hit the hood of your car and come to rest on your dashboard signaling you to stop your car. Once the garage door is shut, Laserpark turns off the laser beam 30 to 60 seconds later.
Unique, Practical, Proven. Laserpark!
Features
Park your car in the garage in the exact correct spot every time.
Avoid damage to your car and your garage.
Has the capacity to park two cars in the same garage with one unit.
Operates with a 9V battery or can be run with our transformer.
Installs in 3 minutes: needs no screws, bolts, or tools.

The Brugo coffee mug
Take control of life’s finer details—like your coffee. Freshly brewed is best, but at 205 degrees, it’s just too hot
to enjoy. Until now, coffee lovers faced a compromise—either try to blow on it, add ice, wait patiently or burn your mouth.
Compromise no more! The patented, thermodynamic science of BRUGO gives you the power to immediately enjoy the most vibrant flavor at the perfect drinking temperature. And because you only cool each sip, the remaining coffee stays hotter and more aromatic. Plus, BRUGO’s elegant design and sleek chrome accents will emphasize your discriminating taste.
BRUGO is A Perfect Degree of Taste.
