Bell & Ross BR05 - wow!
Hi all,
I was intrigued by this timepiece and finally tried it on and I was impressed. I prefer the blue dial on rubber strap and wears very well for 40mm plus comfortable. The brushed steel deployment is also quality. The movement is nothing to shout about as based on Sellita base with minimal modification. The cost is mainly for the case and dial which are great. The dial changes colour depending on the lighting but the blue is spectacular! The matching date window is a big plus as well as the 100m WR. It is definitely on my list and I wonder how long I will be able to hold out for! Some pics... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Recently tried on the bracelet version with black dial and I was impressed. Nicely executed.
Wanted to compare against the blue but none available. Lucky for me otherwise would have had to pull out the credit card. |

Yes the blue is very nice and the most popular- the boutique in London had the bracelet version of the blue dial as well. I prefer it on the rubber as with the bracelet it is a lot of metal as the case is also large and also becomes heavy.
