Not enough Bell and Ross on this forum....
I get it...it's a Rolex forum...but variety is the spice of life right??
My last obsession was Bell and Ross. After months of debate, I settled on a Blue ceramic BR 03-92. Not a fan of the blue rubber OEM strap, but the black OEM looks awesome....as does nylon. This will tide me over til I get my GMT II BLNR Black OEM http://i1339.photobucket.com/albums/...psb31fa163.jpg Blue OEM http://i1339.photobucket.com/albums/...ps360cf160.jpg Gas Gas Bones http://i1339.photobucket.com/albums/...ps1aa74aa1.jpg Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk |

I had a BR03-92 but sold it because I couldn't live with the square case. I do like some of their vintage inspired pieces particularly the minute repeater pocket watch.

Ironically, it was the uniqueness of the square case that drew me to it...and the ceramic and the color and the military-esque nature of it. Just goes to show...to each his own. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk |

I wish they would bring back a revitalised Professional range, perhaps with updated versions of the Type Marine, Type Demineur, and the Hydromax (oil-filled and water-resistant to 11,100 m!)

I have dabbled with Bell and Ross in the past. Loved their watches when it was tool watch based models. I think they have got a little carried away with their designs recently. However these models caught my eye at Salon QP. Looks like they have their focus back with these.

If they bring it back at say 42-44 mm, or a more conventional dive watch (without the oil fill) I'll be all over it

Love some of their designs, but their use of modules for chronographs is a non-starter for me unless priced below $1,500.

I really enjoy the B&R watches, certainly different from Rolex, but in a good way.
