Are you looking at the BR instruments range or the more traditional range?
the trad range includes some nice pieces at reasonable prices (but beware there are a mix of quartz, manual and auto movements and different sizes that impact on price).
I particularly like the cream faced watches they do in the trad range.
Jura watches has a good selection on line

Having not tried it on, I cannot say whether it will suit my wrist, but I do like the style.
On the other hand, I'd quite like a Omega Speedmaster.
I have a B&R 01-92 Phamtom, and I utterly adore it. Nothing like it... I know the moving bits are rehashed ETA movements, but they are just so damn cool.
Sorry about this Omega guys, but for me Omegas are 10 a penny, or like BMW's. Something to aspire to, but everyone now has one. B&R's stand out (sometimes in not very good ways), of the crowd for me, and I'm looking for number two... (the phantom is difficult to read when DJing in a club....
)

The only problem with the B&R instruments range is the re-sale prices can be a bit soft. They are an acquired taste, and not always easy to move on if you decide it's not for you.
The Speedie on the other hand is a classic and re-sale is normally quite good.
But you're the one who is going to be looking at the watch all the time, so if you really like the B&R I say go for it.

I have that watch, different strap. B&R watches are an aquired taste and they do get noticed but they are much cooler and more original than the dullness that is an Omega... This is mine:
That said that £1900 is quite expensive. I got mine through TZ, it was used but had been worn once and still had all the stickers etc on it, it was about a grand cheaper than the one at Jura. They don't come up that often but they do now and again so have a look at what is out there used.

I'm afraid that they look like the sort of thing a saleschild in a mobile phone shop might sport.That said that £1900 is quite expensive.

The sort with much "product" in their hair, a £49 suit and a whiff of fag smoke.
