Bell & Ross?

[vandal.tbh]

I don't see much written about Bell & Ross on the forum. Why is that? Do they not make good reps or are they a brand that people just dont like?

There was a B&R craze a few years ago when the latest 02 reps were released ... it really is a matter of taste. Big square watches with sword hands ... the reps are not bad, but nothing new from the factories in 2+ years? After a while people stop talking about models that never update.

Here are mine:

The B&R 01-94 was my first purchase. I love it. I would probably purchase an 01-94 Pro Titanium if it was available - I don' t think it is.

I love my B&R 02-92. If you can get one and like big watches, I say grab one!

[Philbob]

I love that one, its_urabus. Definitely on my list to eventually purchase. In fact, the PAM243 I ordered awhile back from Joshua doesn't seem to be coming anytime soon (apparently N Factory still having some issues with it), so I'm looking at some different options to replace it and this is definitely one I'm considering.

it needs to be re-lumed to be accurate, as the gen is blue, and the rep is green. but that's pretty much it...

[Philbob]

Thanks! I think I may go that route.

I've got the BR01-94 too, but it's a cheap quartz I picked up in Bahrain. I was wanting to get a better one with and auto mvmt. Just never see anything on the forums about them so I thought I'd ask.

Thanks guys for the imnput. Maybe we can get another craze going!

The good quartz models are thin, like the gen. it's my understanding that the 7750 reps are too thick? I could be wrong.

[vandal.tbh]

Ah...well maybe I should just be happy with what I've got then!

I will say, it does look good, and keeps perfect time for the last 2 years.

I'm in for getting another craze going! I wouldn't mind seeing some of these reps take it up a notch.
