Bell & Ross Br01-
First of all, sorry about the poor pictures. Secondly, we have a old expression "Bullshit baffles brains".its true
Hopefully at the end of this post you will get my drift! I had a look at this watch in a shop in Cardiff. I think the bloke said it was £2,800. It is a fair lump of metal, but I thought my Vixar compared quite well and a lot cheaper The salesman gave me a booklet to read about the watch. This is a sample of the text! This pukemaking bullshit almost made me grab for the sick bag. The references to "living on the edge", "carrying out missions", "exclusive universe of professional users", "even bomb disposal experts" is so laughable that it would be amusing if it wasn't so pathetic. Still if it gets punters to fork out nearly £3,000 for the privilege of believing the owner will become some kind of cross between James Bond and an SAS war hero, good luck to the them.Its something like the adds for certain unmentionable ladies products,you know the ones that make you swim, jump, and ride horses all day. Think If I was a bomb disposal expert at work, the last thing I'd want would be a watch on my wrist, the ticking would scare me to death. In my view it perfectly meets the expectations of men who want to wear a square beer-mat strapped to their wrist. However, I think the exclusive universe of professional tegestologists is a small one but think I could get to like the cockpit style of it.
