/24-7PressRelease/ - MONTREAL, CANADA, July 04, 2008 - Matt Baily has created a relaxing, luxurious shopping experience in Downtown Montreal. High-end watch enthusiasts can browse through numerous brands including seven that are exclusive in Montreal and three that cannot be seen anywhere else in Canada. Amongst the select companies in the store, Bell & Ross stood out over the past four years as a gigantic success story. On May Seventh, Matt Baily and Bell & Ross produced Canada's first and only BR 01 Tourbillon. This rare watch will sell to a collector for C$131,000.
Bell & Ross designs and builds luxury watches fit for professionals. Last year the BR01 Tourbillon was created to showcase their watch making prowess alongside the BR Instrument design, which has contributed greatly to the brand's popularity. A Tourbillon, which is the French word for whirlwind, is an extremely complicated piece of mechanics that was invented by legendary watch maker Abraham-Louis Breguet in1801. The technical difficulty of producing this device makes it rare and expensive, but the demand for this luxurious item is higher then ever.
Matt Baily is the only store that carries a BR 01 Tourbillon in Canada. Although its price does not make it accessible to most watch enthusiasts, there are still plenty of collectors that long for it. Only sixty will be produced. All sixty were pre-sold instantly to retailers when the watch was released in April of 2007. About a quarter of these have already been sold and delivered to clients worldwide regardless of the tremendous price tag.
Although the Canadian market for luxury watches is much smaller then many other locations in the world, Matt Baily is confident that the eventual owner of the Tourbillon will be a Canadian. Using vehicles such as the informative http://www.MattBaily.ca website and knowledgeable staff, Mr. Baily hopes to educate the hundreds of thousands of potential Canadian luxury watch aficionados. There is definite room for the market to grow. Only an estimated five percent of Canadians who can afford to purchase a high-end timepiece actually own one.
