Bell & Ross BR 01 Aviation Instrument Watches For 2013
For 2013 Bell & Ross will once again offer up a few new "Aviation Instrument" themed collection of watches based on the BR 01 (BR01) case. I believe this is the third or fourth year of doing so and it began with pieces like the BR 01 Compass and then the?BR 01 Radar watch. The concept of the piece is to be even more directly "instrument" inspired even though the Bell & Ross BR 01 is called the "Instrument." Having said that, the standard BR 01 watches are straightforward standard watch dials while the Aviation Instrument collection are a bit more "interpretive."You sort of either love or hate these watches. Some people say that Bell & Ross is messing with their tried and true formula of unambiguous military watch designs, and still others love the playfulness and designs of these pieces which are directly inspired by specific cockpit instruments. Last year for 2012 we covered the three new Bell & Ross BR 01 Instrument watches here with the Turn Coordinator, Altimeter, a

Gc Sport Class XL Watch
Does anything about this watch look familiar? It should if you follow Zenith watches at all. This is Gc's rendition of the Zenith Defy X-treme watches. Frankly, I think the Gc does it a bit better, especially on the price side. I am sorry, the Zenith Defy X-treme watches are cool, but so NOT $20,000 grand plus cool. Those are just a long toss into depreciation alley. While the Gc Sport Class XL watch is not without its issues (starting with the name), it is a nice looking watch, and I'd be proud to sport it.Gc (Guess Collection) is the Guess company's watch brand. Though when I look at the name I always think Gucci. Guess as a company has had better days, but I hope that they continue to invest in their watch brand as they have someinteresting stuff to say the least. For example, the Swiss quartz movement has a 12 hour chronograph that has been incorporated into two subdials. The minutes subdial also has a smaller subdial inside of it for the hours. It is not the clearest to read, but

41MM Rose Chrono- Anyone put this on a rubber strap
Hey guys- just looking to see if any of you have put the 41mm rose gold chono that comes on strap and actually put a rubber strap on it? Any pics. I still can't decide if I am doing black dial or white/silver dial. Def going to be on strap but just don't know which one. n

How ��rare�� is a Rolex?
I'm currently sitting here in a brewery in Denver, Colorado and I'm the only one here with a Rolex on; I looked around, ha.I tend to look at the wrist of just about anyone I pass by or sit next to while I'm out and about and I'm starting to feel like it's not all that common to run into someone with a Rolex, or otherwise.I'm sure the concentration of Rolex and/or other luxury goods is mostly centralized in a handful of locations and, therefore, more noticeable. But it's still surprising to see so many naked wrists, so frequently.With the amount of watches that Rolex produces each year, it's a little surprising. But at the end of the day, it's still a privilege to be able to wear something that a lot of folks may never get the chance to own.Anyone else feel this way?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Oysterflex on Daytona C.....love it!
Just put my new a Oysterflex on my 116500 today. Took a while to get the correct fitting combo.....but worth the wait. Thanks to Takuya (Thanh Do) for getting me the correct straps and his patience....also, Chadridv for his helpful tips. I have 7” wrists so the combo that worked for me is E-E & E-G with a minor adjustment at the clasp.
