Your thought on Bell & Ross?
Hello, I was wondering if anybody got any experience with the brand, i really like the design but I never see them here on WC.

I think B&R makes good looking divers, but their pricing…😅
@CoolGuyA has one. There around
Nice pic fam.
They are good, if you want one, get pre-owned.
There many B&R owners here
Their early stuff with the Sinn manufactured cases are very cool looking. One day I will add a Type Demineuer, should I ever find one that is lol.
B&R makes good looking products, but their pricing is off the wall insane. They want way too much for the specs.
The general consensus is what Jbird7986 said: very good quality but overpriced. A lot of that comes down to the company using third party movements but charging in-house movement prices.
The other big thing is that the signature design language (circle in a square instrument look) is not for everybody.
If you like them, buy one but try to get a healthy discount. I don't think anyone buys Bell and Ross at full retail.
I recently tried on the blue dial BR-05 on rubber and liked it a lot. If I had the money right now I would seriously consider buying one.
not really a fan of their case. but i think built quality is good, i ever held one of my friends
It's a good brand, french from origin. They do sponsors the Renault/ Alpine F1 team. They do put a lot of money in the branding. Good built watches with commonly used swiss calibres. I Bought my wife one 2 years ago, still very pleased with it. You should check chrono24, you can find some ,well priced items over there
I have no experience buying pre owned watches but with Bell & Ross definitely the way to start with the brand. I really do not want to use the overused word: COOL to describe them I think they are that! Quite a few of my friends wear B&R but more as a fun timepiece.
Cool watches, but their MSRP should be about 40% less.
Great watches ,mine is ceramic and it's had a few knocks with no damage,nice clear face and accurate.i did get a good discount from the AD

I'm in Europe, you see them often in Car/lifestyle magazines.
