Ha! I like it!

CPTL · 31 March 2009, 04:56 AM

Looks like a novelty watch. And probably costs $4k.

i had a feeling you'd like it - it's a little outside of the box, and a little macabre.

What are you saying?

you know me so well!

I owned a BR01-94 Phantom and this looks like a similar case... it is robust! Craftsmanship is great, and at $4000 it would be a steel, however, I think it will be more like $6k

yeah, it is beefy! Presently looking for one for my... ahem... friend. PVD/Carbon fiber dial, non-chrono... think may have found a brand-new one for 40% off!

I like it if only because it is unique, and that it shows Bell & Ross has higher hopes than to be just another cookie-cutter brand.

hflee55 · 31 March 2009, 10:22 AM

seriously?

iwantagmt · 31 March 2009, 01:49 PM

I will add that i think the face of that watch is cool! *roll on snare drum*

sorry i could not resist!

feilong108 · 31 March 2009, 03:23 PM

i love the unique dial...and the hands too...

hwai333 · 31 March 2009, 04:10 PM

do not want

alphamale2012 · 1 April 2009, 02:52 AM

I like

WatchTimes · 1 April 2009, 05:50 AM

Cool, unique
BUT
I worry its their start down the Corum path going trendy....

I think it will be priced more than Id be willing to spend for it though.

If I didnt have a budget Id surely get one.

topcat30093 · 1 April 2009, 12:57 PM

Not my cuppa of tea.

lbcgav · 2 April 2009, 09:55 AM

Too gimmicky. I'd rather have a Sinn. Are they still making the Bell & Rosses?

WatchTimes · 2 April 2009, 10:15 AM

Nope B&R is a big boy all on their own now and
really have done a lot to separate themselves from
Sinn....
