hi nottingham (nottinghill sorry)

I've seen Bell & Ross with big big dials. It fits hunks (or hulks) with thick wrists. Tot they look really like fighter cockpit instruments (reminds me of US Fighter Planes hovering over Viet Cong airspace during Vietnam War... am having memories of my Viet tour...)

I also seen limited edition dials (like blue, orange and etc) around some watch boutiques in Paragon :-)

They do look good. Why not go and have a look, strap it on yr wrist? See if it smiles at u? :-) *wink*

I prefer the simple dial anytime, man :-P

yea..i guess those are huge watches.... 46mm by 46mm.... the blue dial comes in limited 500 pieces...and the orange dial comes in 250 pieces.. it even come in phantom dial... 500 pieces...

hmn the simple dial really looks good...guess i will get the black dial carbon case one.... but of cos...assuming the price's ok...hehehe

I have the BR03-92, the smaller 42mm one. The BR01 seems a little too big for my small wrist. My favourite colour would be the orange markers. But by the time I developed interest for this watch, the orange ones already all sold out liow leh. So, I settled for the normal one, with steel casing. The PVD also sold out at that time

ok. my personal view is that bell and ross marketing strategy has one common in with hublot. they are marketing a one design multiple variations aka change the cosmetics of the model. i find that their time pieces are still a little over priced. my friend is looking @ blue or orange hands one. when he heard the price, he was like errr...........

[minusplus]

This is probably one of the most famous productions by B&R. But I will still prefer round dials to squarish ones. Round ones will not get out of trend so easily

I see... if you ask me, given a choice to choose one, I will choose the black dial one

Looks better and classier

ok. what color is ur skin tone? this will affect the choice of colors of watch case. like my skin tone is on the darker side, im left with limited choices of color dials.
