Bell & Ross 46mm X 46mm Ultimate Br-01-92 From Trusty

This looks like they yanked out an instrument cluster from the dash of an airplane and strapped it to your wrist.

It looks the size of a wall clock. Why does this look so much bigger (way bigger) than a Fiddy? Anyone with a 7.5 inch wrist shot?

It looks big because it is big. A square is going to have significantly larger area than a circle with the same width. I feel comfortable wearing 47mm traditional watches but this one looks huge. Should fit well under a shirt sleeve. ;) I suppose it is built to sit comfortably outside of your flight suit. :lol: It is a very well done rep though. :)

The PVD Chrono with orange is there already

I think this watch looks awesome.... thank god I have a rather large wrist at 7.8" ... I just don't understand why they put this little silver circle around the date window.... it's not on the gen and on the rep dial they had to do it on purpose....what purpose?

By the way.... go to the Bell&Ross website and look under "Goodies" - they have what I feel is the coolest watch screensaver... the orange PVD Chrono is running on my machine since three weeks...

Sorry, I only have a 7" wrist ! This is my BR 01-94 Chrono. I've only put it on for these shots so if you want it please PM me - I've decided it's not for me...

Nice watch but crap movement. Certainly not an ETA 2892 (this debate is raging on general discussion). I will post some pics later - very disappointed with this and it certainly does not have anything like superlume at all. It's better than some reps but NOT SL.

Yeah, really nice watch - an "eye-catcher" on your wrist.

I have bought this one too - and I am very disappointed...

The watch is advertised to have ETA-2892 movement and

Super Luminova applied to the Dial and markers.

Well, the Lume is just standard - far far away from SL !

It dosn't even glow as bright as SL when looking at it

**immediately** after charging it. And after 20 seconds

it's as low as we all know it from our other reps...

Movement ? Well, that's the next joke. Like Finepics said

(and he showed some quick pictures of the movement in another

Thread) the movement is very very crappy and nowhere near

an ETA-2892 and nowhere near a 2892-Copy !!! An example for

2892-Copy-movements is FM-2892 and Omega AT 2892 just look

through the pictures of our Dealers to see how they should look like.

By the way: the rotor of this movement is loud and the winding (IF you wind

it manually) feels crappy.

But now comes the hardest disappointment for me:

I contacted the Dealer about this, his comment: I can

replace you the watch but you'll get one with the same movement.

It's 28'800 bph and 21J - you can test that...

Well, so we are in a completely new situation meanwhile...

It was ok to get copy-movements, mixed-movements, pay sapphire

and get mineral (you remember this issue with the 47mm panerais ?).

But now - we have to accept to buy (and pay premium!) for a 2892 movement

(let's not care about ETA or Copy...) and then receive ANYTHING that

has the same beat-rate and jewels ???

I'm really really unhappy about this and will continue trying to resolve this

with the dealer...
